![Page 2: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
• Solid waste management is the collection,
transport, processing, recycling or disposal
and monitoring of solid waste materials.
![Page 3: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The objectives of the solid waste
management are to;
• Minimize waste generation;
• Maximize the collection efficiency of waste;
• Reduce the volume of waste requiring
disposal and maximize the economic value of
waste; and
• Develop and adopt environmentally sound
treatment and disposal methods.
![Page 4: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Waste Management systems
• A waste management system should ideally
consist of environmentally acceptable waste
management practices that are aimed at
minimising waste generation from both domestic
and industrial/commercial activities.
• Further, the system must provide for the
protection of human health and the environment.

HIERARCHY OF
WASTE MINIMIZATION
![Page 6: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Waste Prevention
• This means avoiding the potential for waste
generation in the first place. It is usually
linked with manufacturing industry, and is
synonymous with :-
–Reductions in resource use,
–Resources Selective,
–Avoiding certain types of resources,
especially hazardous wastes
![Page 7: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Waste Minimization • Waste minimization strategies include all
actions to reduce the quantity of waste
requiring disposal. Waste minimization
includes:
–Reducing waste at source
–Reusing materials
–Recycling waste materials
–Reducing use of toxic or harmful materials
![Page 8: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Waste minimizations has the following
advantages:
• Reduced volume of waste for disposal
• Reduced costs of collection and disposal
• Longer life of disposal sites
• Reduced environmental and health impacts
• Reduced costs through more efficient use of
resources
![Page 9: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Waste Re-Use • This refers to the re-use of discarded items without any
additional processing.
• In manufacturing industry, for example, this may refer
to packaging materials such as wooden pallets or
cardboard boxes used to transport products from factory
to warehouse to retail outlet.
• In office or household terms it may involve the use of
glass cups rather than paper/plastic cups and Refillable
bottles.
![Page 10: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Recycling
• Recycling involving the utilization of discarded material to produce another product of the same grade or lower.

RESOURCE RECOVERY THROUGH
WASTE PROCESSING
• This is biological or thermal treatment of
waste can result in recovery of useful
products such as compost or energy.
![Page 15: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Biological Processes
• Biological treatment involves using micro-organisms to
decompose the biodegradable components of waste.
Two types of processes are used, namely:
(a) Aerobic processes: Windrow (row of drying grass)
composting, aerated static pile composting and in-vessel
composting etc.
(b) Anaerobic processes: Low-solids anaerobic
digestion (wet process), high solids anaerobic digestion
(dry process) and combined processes.
![Page 16: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Thermal Processes
• Thermal treatment involves conversion of
waste into gaseous, liquid and solid
conversion products with concurrent or
subsequent release of energy.
![Page 17: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Three types of systems can be adopted,
namely:
• (a) Combustion systems (Incinerators): Thermal
processing with excess amounts of air.
• (b) Pyrolysis systems: Thermal processing in
complete absence of oxygen (low temperature).
• (c) Gasification systems: Thermal processing with
less amount of air (high temperature).
![Page 18: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Waste disposal • The final functional element in the solid
waste management system is waste
disposal.
• Today the disposal of wastes are done by
–Uncontrolled dumping.(Open damp)
–Land filling
![Page 19: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Open dump
• An open dumping is defined as a land
disposal site at which solid wastes are
disposed of in a manner that does not
protect the environment, are susceptible to
open burning, surface and ground water
contamination, detrimental to the natural
beauty of the land, deteriorating soil
quality and are exposed to scavengers
![Page 20: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Open dump
• It is a predominant method of waste disposal in
developing countries leading into;
– Illegal dumping problems
– Groundwater contamination,
– Air pollution,
– Pest and
– Health hazards

Landfill
• Engineered Landfill sites as well as properly sited and constructed dumpsites are a pivotal component in a sound waste management system. It is important to note that despite active waste prevention and recycling, residues will always remain requiring final disposal. Waste should therefore be disposed of in such a way as not to cause harm to the environment and mankind.

Public Awareness
• Public awareness plays a vital role in changing
people’s attitude and ensuring the success of
waste management programs.
• The success of waste management programmes
will depend to a greater extent on awareness
programmes. The awareness programmes will
provide for sensitisation of communities on the
existing environmental laws and by-laws.
![Page 31: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Health and Safety
• The handling and classifying of refuse is potentially
hazardous. Staff need to be aware of the possible
hazards. The refuse will likely contain sharp objects,
toxic substances, even syringes. A public health officer
should be included on the team to oversee health and
safety aspects.
![Page 32: LECTURE 9.ppt SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58790dfa1a28ab6f658b642b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Equipment should include:
• Overalls
• Heavy duty rubber or Polyvinylchloride (PVC) gloves
• Foot protection
• Eye protection
• Dust masks
• Ear muffs (if machinery close by)
• First aid kit
• Water and disinfectant for wash up
