IRJET- Characterisation and Treatment of Leachate from Municipal Solid Waste ...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes the characterization and treatment of leachate from municipal solid waste open dumping sites. Leachate samples were collected from open dumping sites and analyzed to determine pollution potential. The leachate was found to contain high concentrations of organic and inorganic constituents beyond permissible limits, though heavy metal concentrations were low since the waste was domestic in nature. Older landfill leachate had lower organic pollutant levels due to anaerobic decomposition. Coagulation using lime and alum was evaluated as a potential leachate treatment process by varying pH and coagulant dose.

This document summarizes waste management practices in developed and developing countries. It begins by defining different types of wastes, including solid, liquid, sludge, and hazardous wastes. For developed countries, common solid waste management practices are landfilling, recycling, and incineration. Liquid waste management involves detailed plans, water treatment facilities, and injection wells. Hazardous waste is strictly regulated and disposed of through landfilling or incineration. Developing countries also utilize these methods but to a lesser extent due to resource constraints. The Philippine waste management system is then briefly outlined.

Analysis of Solid Waste for its better Management – a case studyinventionjournals
The document analyzes the composition, characteristics, and quantities of solid waste in Aligarh city, India. It finds that the city's solid waste consists on average of 33% vegetable/food waste, 33% drain silt, 10% plastic/rubber, 5% rag/jute, 8% paper, 5% construction debris, and 8% wooden matter. Sampling of waste was conducted across 16 wards, with characteristics such as moisture content, carbon, and nitrogen content analyzed. The study provides baseline data on the city's waste to inform better management and future planning of waste disposal systems.
Urban areas face many environmental problems due to high population density and lack of proper urban planning. Some of the key issues discussed are the development of slums due to migration of rural populations, improper management of solid waste leading to pollution, overexploitation of natural resources, lack of open spaces, and various types of pollution including air, noise, water pollution. Other problems discussed are violation of urban planning rules, water logging and drainage issues, high traffic problems, and increased temperatures due to urban heat island effect. The document uses Mumbai as a case study to highlight specific environmental issues affecting the city like shrinking mangroves, toxic air, pollution of lakes like Powai Lake, deaths of sea creatures, opposition to urban development plans,
The document discusses solid waste management challenges in Pakistan. It notes that solid waste generation is growing at 2.4% annually and averages 0.61 kg/person/day in cities. Food waste makes up 21.7% of solid waste composition on average. Most waste is improperly disposed through open dumping or burning. Only 52-69% of waste is collected in cities. The government aims to improve management through policies and a hospital waste plan, but more regulations and programs are still needed, especially in smaller towns. One example project piloted participatory management in a town through community organization, education, and improved collection infrastructure.
Economic Implications on the Composition of Municipal Solid Waste and its Man...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
An appropriate technology for waste management
in developing countries not only reflects the concern over the
operation and cost of machines imported from developed
countries but also entails the social and environmental goals
of sustainable development based on techniques appropriate
to specific settings. In connection with much of the published
data, the information is of only partial benefit to a designer
or planner, since the national averages presented are
applicable only very broadly to the entire nation; that is, to
adequately design a solid waste management system for a
particular locality comprehensive information about the
solid waste in that locality must be obtained. Since solid
waste reflect the life-style of the generating populace, the
character and amounts of various components in the solid
waste stream will vary from locale to locale in Kota city.
This paper presents the findings of a study carried out in
economically different localities in Kota city to determine the
solid waste composition based on field surveys and its
management.
This is a complete book ,which deals with the current situation of solid waste in Pakistan,factor affecting its management and role government organization in waste management.
Phyto cover for Sanitary Landfill Sites: A brief reviewIJERA Editor
Landfill gases (LFG) are produced due to biodegradation of organic fraction of municipal solid waste (MSW) when water comes in contact with buried wastes. The conventional clay cover is still practiced to mitigate the percolation of water in landfills in India. Gas extraction systems in landfill for gas collection are used but are much expensive. Thus, “Phytocapping” technique can be one of the alternatives to mitigate landfill gases and to minimize percolation of water into the landfill. Indian plants with locally available soil and municipal solid waste can be tested for the purpose of methane mitigation, heavy metals remediation from leachate. Methane oxidation due to vegetation can be observed compared to non-vegetated landfill. Root zone methane concentrations can be monitored for the plant species
The document discusses an environmental impact assessment of the 2016 Simhastha festival in Ujjain, India. It analyzes the city's current solid waste management system and sewage infrastructure, and assesses water quality. The objectives are to effectively manage increased waste from visitors, study environmental effects, propose waste processing methods, and suggest technologies to minimize risks. Analysis found high turbidity and biochemical oxygen demand in water samples, indicating pollution. The city generates over 50 million liters of sewage daily but infrastructure is insufficient. Solid waste management needs improvement as most waste currently ends up uncollected.

" Disposal options for solid waste of Bangalore city based on its characteris...Dr. Naveen BP
This document analyzes the solid waste characteristics of Bangalore city in India to suggest options for its safe disposal. It finds that Bangalore's waste contains a larger proportion of degradable waste than many other cities. It suggests that a landfill with leachate and gas collection systems is preferable to an inert landfill for Bangalore currently, for technical and economic reasons. Separation of degradable and inert waste with separate landfills is another option.
Organic waste management is the collection, transport, processing or disposal, managing and monitoring of organic waste materials. The term usually relates to materials produced by human activity, and the process is generally undertaken to reduce their effect on health, the environment or aesthetics. Waste management is a distinct practice from resource recovery which focuses on delaying the rate of consumption of natural resources. All wastes materials, whether they are solid, liquid, gaseous or radioactive fall within the remit of waste management
Organic waste management practices can differ for developed and developing nations, for urban and rural areas, and for residential and industrial producers. Management for non-hazardous waste residential and institutional waste in metropolitan areas is usually the responsibility of local government authorities, while management for non-hazardous commercial and industrial waste is usually the responsibility of the generator subject to local, national or international controls.
Waste can be regarded as a human concept as there appears to be no such thing as waste in nature. The waste products created by a natural process or organism quickly becomes the raw products used by other processes and organisms.
Recycling is predominant, therefore production and decomposition are well balanced and nutrient cycles continuously support the next cycles of production. This is the so-called circle of life and is a strategy clearly related to ensuring stability and sustainability in natural systems. On the other hand there are man-made systems which emphasize the economic value of materials and energy, and where production and consumption are the dominant economic activities. Such systems tend to be highly destructive of the environment as they require massive consumption of natural capital and energy, return the end product (waste) to the environment in a form that damages the environment and require more natural capital be consumed in order to feed the system. Where resources and space are finite (the Earth is not getting any bigger) this is ultimately not sustainable.
The presence of waste is an indication of overconsumption and that materials are not being used efficiently. This is carelessly reducing the Earths capacity to supply new raw materials in the future. The capacity of the natural environment to absorb and process these materials is also under stress. Valuable resources in the form of matter and energy are lost during waste disposal, requiring that a greater burden be placed on ecosystems to provide these. The main problem is the sheer volume of waste being produced and how we deal with it

Challenges of solid waste management in Zimbabwe: a case study of Sakubva hig...Premier Publishers
The objectives of the study were to assess the current status on household solid waste management challenges of collection and disposal. The research employed both quantitative (in form of questionnaires) and qualitative (in form of interviews) methodologies. Field visits and observations were done on residential areas and open dumpsites. The research found that there are lots of challenges that are faced by residents and these range from collection, methods of disposal and the involvement of other key stakeholders. The results revealed that the challenges in poor refuse collection were attributed to serious shortage of refuse equipment, and shortage of proper receptacles. Recycling strategies seemed to be nonexistent as revealed by low percentages of residents who practice it. Since council does not collect waste as often as it should, residents dispose waste through the traditional and unsustainable ways such as backyard incinerator, burying, burning and illegal open dumps. With rapid urbanization, the situation is becoming critical. It was recommended that councils should extend coverage to all areas, increase their refuse collection frequency, provide receptacles to residents and raise awareness campaigns on recycling and sustainable solid waste disposal. There is need for involvement by private sector and NGOs in solid waste management.
This document summarizes a research paper that analyzes health issues related to urban solid waste disposal in four areas of Sri Lanka: Colombo, Kandy, Kurunegala, and Badulla.

A good environment they say predetermines good health. If good health is to be measured at all the people and the environment will play a significant role. Illness and disease however, do not exist in isolation of the environment in particular. Waste is an object for which we have no further use and which has to be disposed off because of the danger it poses to the environment. Solid waste refers to garbage, refuse, rubbish, trash or litter generated through the domestic, commercial and industrial activities of man. As the population increased efforts were made to transport waste out of the cities. This study therefore examined the problems of solid waste disposal in Ibarapa East Local Government Area of Oyo state. Two hundred respondents were sampled from the study area. The major instruments of data collection were questionnaire administration, personal observation and oral interview Data were analyzed using cross tabulation and simple percentage The findings shows that the respondents were aware of effects that improper solid waste to have in their environment and health but still indulge in insanitary wasted disposal. Also the role of Government in waste disposal was below normal standard. It was recommended that the people should change their unsanitary system of waste disposal and government should improve on waste disposal policy.
Waste management is the collection, transport, processing, recycling or disposal, and
monitoring of waste materials.

Low power architecture of logic gates using adiabatic techniquesnooriasukmaningtyas
The growing significance of portable systems to limit power consumption in ultra-large-scale-integration chips of very high density, has recently led to rapid and inventive progresses in low-power design. The most effective technique is adiabatic logic circuit design in energy-efficient hardware. This paper presents two adiabatic approaches for the design of low power circuits, modified positive feedback adiabatic logic (modified PFAL) and the other is direct current diode based positive feedback adiabatic logic (DC-DB PFAL). Logic gates are the preliminary components in any digital circuit design. By improving the performance of basic gates, one can improvise the whole system performance. In this paper proposed circuit design of the low power architecture of OR/NOR, AND/NAND, and XOR/XNOR gates are presented using the said approaches and their results are analyzed for powerdissipation, delay, power-delay-product and rise time and compared with the other adiabatic techniques along with the conventional complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) designs reported in the literature. It has been found that the designs with DC-DB PFAL technique outperform with the percentage improvement of 65% for NOR gate and 7% for NAND gate and 34% for XNOR gate over the modified PFAL techniques at 10 MHz respectively.
A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...nooriasukmaningtyas
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.
