A bulldozer compacting solid waste freshly delivered to the MSW landfill site. the new Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) for processing commingled recyclables can also be seen. This bulldozer is equipped with special low ground pressure (LGP) track plates and a solid waste blade that is far more effective than other blades normally used in bulldozers for landfills.

4. Introduction
Solid waste management is a local issue with global implications. As the world’s population
continues to grow, so does the amount of waste being produced. As waste generation increases, so
does the importance of having an effective solid waste management system in place. However, cities
and local governments face many challenges when it comes to properly manage their solid waste.
The Best Practices for Solid Waste Management: A Guide for Decision-Makers in Developing
Countries (Guide) is focused on best practices for solid waste management in medium and large
urban centres in developing countries (generally referred to as “cities” in the Guide), because they
face the most substantial solid waste management challenges. Given their waste generation
projections, these challenges will only become more acute in the future and decision-makers have
the opportunity to take important and effective action. Portions of the Guide might also be
applicable to rural towns, villages, or other small jurisdictions. The Guide’s primary audience is state
and local government authorities in these cities. These authorities typically include decision-makers,
policymakers, and agency staff involved in solid waste management.

5. Inadequate solid waste management can impact cities and their residents in myriad ways. These impacts can
generally be categorized into three categories:
• Human health. The improper handling of waste can impact human health (e.g., decomposing organic waste
attracts rodents, insects, and stray animals). In some cities, human fecal matter and urine are not separated
from solid waste, which attract insects and germs that spread disease (e.g., typhoid, cholera). Mosquitos also
pose a concern when they breed in solid waste (e.g., used tires); mosquitos can be vectors for diseases such as
malaria, dengue, and the Zika virus. Mismanaged solid waste and open dumpsites can lead to environmental
contamination of surface and groundwater, which are common sources of drinking water. Uncontrolled
burning of waste may result in emissions of air pollutants including dioxins, furans, black carbon, heavy metals,
and particulate matter, many of which can be toxic for human health (ISWA 2015). For populations living in
direct contact with or close proximity to waste disposal sites, these health effects can be particularly severe.

managed waste streams, efer to the Informal Sector Recycling section.
Why Is Solid Waste Management Important?

6. • Environmental. Inadequate control of leachate, water that filters through waste and draws out chemicals, at
disposal sites can lead to environmental contamination of soils and water bodies, impacting local ecosystems
(U.S. EPA 2018d). Mismanaged waste is also a threat to stray animals and wildlife as animals may try to
consume waste that contains food residue or scraps. Open burning of waste produces emissions of black
carbon, a component of particulate matter that has a significant impact on regional air quality and global
climate. Waste disposal sites release methane, which contributes to the formation of ground-level ozone. In
addition, methane is a greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change. For more information on the air
quality and climate change impacts of inadequate solid waste management, see the Climate and Clean Air
Coalition’s Municipal Solid Waste Initiative website).
• Socioeconomic. Inadequate solid waste management can be costly, both in terms of direct expenses and
indirect costs. Mismanaged solid waste systems are a missed opportunity for economic growth, including
increased property values and tourism benefits from having clean streets and beaches. Programs reducing
waste can lead to cost savings in transportation and fuel costs, and cost recovery if implemented correctly.
Improved solid waste management can especially benefit highly vulnerable populations through cost savings
on public health systems by preventing respiratory issues, skin diseases, and other health care concerns
associated with inadequate solid waste management (ISWA 2015).
