This document discusses solid waste management. It defines solid waste and categorizes it into urban waste, industrial waste, and hazardous waste. Improper management of solid waste can lead to pollution and health issues. The objective of solid waste management is to minimize these environmental and health impacts through practices like waste segregation, collection, transportation, reuse, treatment, and disposal. Thermal treatments like incineration and landfills are common disposal methods.
