Introduction:-
A waste can be defined as any unwanted and useless material. The waste can be either
solid, liquid or gaseous. Solid Waste in general can be defined as ‘As a material which
has negligible value to the producer and there is no direct consumption of the generated
waste’. It is generated due to various activities that can be residual and commercial,
agricultural, etc. Whatever the origin, content or hazard potential is, solid waste must be
managed systematically to ensure environmental best practices.

Collection:-
Waste collection is a part of the process of waste management. Waste collection also
includes the curbside collection of recyclable materials that technically are not waste, as
part of a municipal landfill diversion program, Proper solid-waste collection is important
for the protection of public health, safety, and environmental quality. It is a labor-
intensive activity, accounting for approximately three-quarters of the total cost of solid-
waste management.

Transportation:-
The transportation of waste is the movement of waste over a specific area by trains,
tankers, trucks, barges, or other vehicles. The types of wastes that may be transported
range from municipal garbage to radioactive or hazardous wastes.

Processing:-
Processing technic are used in solid waste management system, improve the efficiency
of solid waste disposal system and to recover resource and to prepare material for the
recovery of conversion product and energy
Landfill:-
A landfill site is a site for the disposal of waste materials by burial. Landfill is the oldest
form of waste treatment, although the burial of the waste is modern; historically, refuse
was simply left in piles or thrown into pits. Historically, landfills have been the most
common method of organized waste disposal and remain so in many places around the
world.

The total cost that are used for solid waste yearly
= 13690 $
Discussion:-
The initial study of the solid waste management in Duhok city showed that a high cost is
other side the incoming money is about 13690 $ from the waste materials after sorting in
kwashe factory. The sorted materials are 40% food and 60% includes plastic, metal,
carton, wood ………...etc., from the total wastes which is about (600-650) ton per day.
About (250-300) tones per day is sorted and this leads to be the benefits of management
of the wastes to be very low, because of the existing of different obstacles in all the
Page 11 of 12
Conclusion:-
it is concluded that it is important to reduce the cost of the solid waste management
processes and this satisfied by three strategies. The first one is by reducing the solid
wastes amount, this can be done by awareness the people and sorting the wastes in the
source. The second strategy is by reducing the costs of transportation processes and the
third strategy is increasing the benefits or incoming money from the sorted materials.
The third strategy can be satisfied by increasing the sorting ratios about 80% for each
material during next ten years, because of the quick growth of the people economic
situation.
