3. What is Waste ????
Substances or objects which are disposed of or are intended to be
disposed of or are required to be disposed of by the provisions
of law.
4. Classification of Wastes
Solid wastes are classified on the basis of source of
generation and type.
Source based classification
Residential
Commercial
Institutional
Municipal
Industrial
Agricultural
Open Areas
5. Classification of Wastes Based on Type
Garbage
Ashes and Residues
Combustible and Non-Combustible Wastes
Bulky Wastes
Street Wastes
Biodegradable and Non-Biodegradable Wastes
Dead Animals
Abandoned Vehicles
Construction and Demolition Wastes
Farm Wastes
Hazardous Wastes
Sewage Wastes
7. Steps in Management of Municipal Solid Waste
Waste Generation
Waste Storage and On-site handling
Collection
Transfer and Transport
Processing
Recovery and Recycling
Waste Disposal
Solid waste management is defined as the discipline
associated with control of generation, storage, collection,
transport or transfer, processing and disposal of solid
wastes materials in a way that best addresses the public
health, conservation, economics, aesthetic, engineering and
other environmental considerations.

9. Factors Affecting MSWM
There are several factors, which affect the present as
well as the future waste quantity and composition.
Geographical Location
Seasons
Population and Diversity
Collection Frequency

10. MSWM – The Indian Scenario
The current annual generation of municipal solid waste in
India is estimated to be around 62 million tonnes which will
rise rapidly with population growth, urbanization and
improving living standards of people to around 165 million
tonnes by 2030.
11. Waste Management in India falls under the purview of the Union
Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC).
In 2016 the ministry released the SWM rules, 2016, these rules
replaced the MSWM rules, 2000 which had been in place for 16
years.
Urban India (about 377 million people) generates 62 million tonnes
of municipal solid wastes (MSW) each year. Of this about 43
million tonnes (70%) is collected and 11.9 million tonnes (20%) is
treated. About 31 million tonnes (50%) is dumped in landfill sites.
With changing consumption patterns and rapid economic growth it
is estimated that urban municipal solid waste generation will
increase to 165 million tonnes in 2030.
12. A typical waste management system in India
includes the following system: [There are (approx.)
4000 urban local bodies in India.]
• Waste generation and storage
• Segregation, reuse and recycling at the household level
• Primary waste collection and transport to a transfer station or
community bin
• Street sweeping and cleaning of public places
• Management of transfer station or community bin
• Secondary collection and transport to the waste disposal site
• Waste disposal in landfills

16. Scenario of MSWM in Developed,
Developing and Least Developed
Countries
Although having different perspectives, waste management is
one of the key issues to be addressed both by developed and
developing countries for achieving a sustainable implementation
of the various human activities worldwide.
Developed countries produce more waste per capita because they
have higher levels of consumption. There are higher proportions
of plastics, metals, and paper in the MSW stream and there are
higher labour costs.
17. As countries continue developing, there is a reduction in biological
solid wastes and ash. Per capita waste generation in OECD
countries has increased by 14% since 1990, and 35% since
1980. Waste generation generally grows at a rate slightly lower than
GDP in these countries. Developed countries consume more than
60% of the world industrial raw materials and only comprise 22%
of the world's population. As a nation, Americans generate more
waste than any other nation in the world with 4.5 pounds (2.0 kg) of
municipal solid waste (MSW) per person per day, fifty five percent
of which is contributed as residential garbage.
Developing nations produce lower levels of waste per capita with a
higher proportion of organic material in the MSW stream. If
measured by weight, organic (biodegradable) residue constitutes at
least 50% of waste in developing countries.

21. Conclusion
With an exponentially increasing population, it is even more
important to be considerate about how well individuals take care
of the planet. Land is limited, resources are limited, and the health
of the planet can only be hurt to a limited extent. As more and
more waste is generated yearly, it is evident that this increasing
trend is unacceptable in the long run. Landfills and recycling can
only temporarily mitigate the immediate consequences of this
large waste production. However, if the problem of municipal
solid waste is to be truly addressed, the root of the issue must be
looked at first. If less waste is generated in the first place, the
challenge of finding environmentally feasible ways of disposing
of waste will be much easier.
