Sustainable Solid Waste Management Strategies For Chaibasa Town
Main Article Content
Abstract
The management of urban solid waste is one of the major problems faced by Indian cities and towns. Day by day, waste volumes are increasing, and municipal authorities are unable to scale up the facilities needed for proper management. Garbage is littered all over the roads and footpaths in many cities and towns. In India more than 50% MSW is buried in landfill sites. Eventually, some waste rots and some do not, and it works and produces methane gas in the process, which is very volatile and adds to the greenhouse effect. The study in this paper presents the review of current solid waste management practices for Chaibasa town and suggests sustainable strategies to manage the same.
