This document discusses sustainability and waste management, focusing on finding opportunities within waste ("lemonade in waste"). It defines various types of waste and provides statistics on waste generation rates in California and Santa Clara County. The document outlines what materials comprise waste nationwide and in California. It discusses recycling rates and gives examples of how recycled materials like glass, metals, plastics, paper, and green waste can be used to create new products. The document also outlines San Jose's goal to become a zero waste city by 2022 and programs implemented to achieve this, such as yard waste recycling and food waste composting. It provides examples of conversion technologies to process waste and discusses modern landfill design with systems to collect landfill gas.
Improper disposal of municipal solid waste can create unsanitary conditions, and these conditions in turn can lead to pollution of the environment and to outbreaks of vector-borne disease.The tasks of solid-waste management present complex technical challenges. They also pose a wide variety of administrative, economic, and social problems that must be managed and solved.Here we discuss about different types of solid waste and its effective management.

Planning waste management and recycling for all waste generated by an organisation can be a daunting and enormous task which will require logistical planning, knowledge of legislation and a more in-depth understanding in order to balance environmental and economic benefits.
This task quite often will fall with the energy manager for the organisation, if there is no sustainability person or team. The session gives a brief introduction on principles of waste management and relevant legal issues and gives practical guidance on how to set up waste management and recycling for your organisation.
Solid waste refers to the range of garbage arising from animal and human activities that are discarded as unwanted and useless. Solid waste is generated from industrial, residential and commercial activities. Wastes create deterioration of the environment through pollution and damages. One of the most important solutions to this problems is to produce less waste. A number of different techniques can be used to reduce the production of wastes. Solid waste management is a term that is used to refer to the process of collecting and treating solid wastes. It also offers solutions for recycling items that do not belong to garbage or trash.

The waste hierarchy refers to the "3 Rs" reduce, reuse and recycle, which classify waste management strategies according to their desirability in terms of waste minimisation. The waste hierarchy remains the cornerstone of most waste minimisation strategies.
