The ideal waste management alternative is to prevent waste generation in the first place. Hence waste prevention is a basic goal of all the waste management strategies. Numerous technologies can be employed throughout the manufacturing use or post-use portions of product life cycles to eliminate waste and in turn reduce or prevent pollution.
For sustainable management of solid waste effective planning and development strategies about the quantity and categories of such wastes are of great importance. Thus the most important processes are quantification and characterization of all the sustainable solid waste management systems according to Senzige et al. . At a particular place studying the composition and the categories of solid waste
times the present levels.1 While the quantity of solid waste generated by society is increas-ing the composition of solid waste is becoming more and more diversified. Thirty years ago the composition of solid waste generated by the Indian farmer was characterised by one-fifth non-biodegradable waste and four-fifths biodegradable waste.
1. Introduction. Solid waste management (SWM) is a major problem for many urban local bodies (ULBs) in India where urbanization industrialization and economic growth have resulted in increased municipal solid waste (MSW) generation per person .Effective SWM is a major challenge in cities with high population density.

EEG Waste Management Programmes. EEG’s Waste Management Programme helps the communities in the UAE to avoid waste being disposed into landfills and hence increase the quality of health. Residents of all emirates are encouraged to collect specific types of waste which EEG then collects and sends to be authorized recycling centers.
Solid waste management practices include collection recycling solid waste disposal on land biological and other treatments as well as incineration and open burning of waste. Although recycling (material recovery)1 activities will affect the amounts of waste entering into other management and treatment systems the impact on

2 WASTE GENERATION COMPOSITION AND MANAGEMENT DATA 2.1 INTRODUCTION The starting point for the estimation of greenhouse gas emissions from solid waste disposal biological treatment and incineration and open burning of solid waste is the compilation of activity data on waste generation composition and management.
Municipal solid waste (MSW) reflects the culture that produces it and affects the health of the people and the environment surrounding it. Globally people are discarding growing quantities of waste and its composition is more complex than ever before as plastic and electronic consumer products diffuse. Concurrently the world is urbanizing at an unprecedented rate. These trends pose a
The USA China and India are the top three producers of municipal solid waste. The composition of solid wastes varies with income low-to-middle-income population generates mainly organic wastes whereas high-income population produces more waste paper metals and glasses. Management of municipal solid waste includes recycling incineration waste-to-energy conversion
The implementation of solid waste management strategy based on waste hierarchy is practised by emphasising reuse and improving the quality of products that can be recycled. Government promotes the private sector to invest in green technology in order to boost the efficiency of environmental-friendly products.

Trends in Solid Waste Management. The world generates 2.01 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste annually with at least 33 percent of that—extremely conservatively—not managed in an environmentally safe manner. Worldwide waste generated per person per day averages 0.74 kilogram but ranges widely from 0.11 to 4.54 kilograms.
Solid waste management is defined as the discipline associated with control of generation storage collection transport or transfer processing and disposal of solid waste materials in a way that best addresses the range of public health conservation economic aesthetic engineering and other environmental considerations.

Solid Waste has received a unique place in Sri Lanka. Everyone demands proper disposal of the garbage that each individual generates. However these individuals are not willing to contribute in finding solutions. In other words solid waste is somebodies responsibility other than the persons who is responsible in generating it.
Source reduction or waste prevention is designing products to reduce the amount of waste that will later need to be thrown away and also to make the resulting waste less toxic. Recycling is the recovery of useful materials such as paper glass plastic and metals from the trash to use to make new products reducing the amount of raw materials needed.
