INTRODUCTION
Waste is anything your business intends to discard, or handles or produces and is not
wanted or required.

Good waste management is important for:

• The environment
• Your business reputation
• Controlling costs of waste
• Winning business contracts
• Waste management (or waste disposal) includes the activities and actions required to
manage waste from its inception to its final disposal.

• It is intended to reduce adverse effects of waste on human health, the environment

or aesthetics.

• Proper management of waste is important for building sustainable and livable cities,
but it remains a challenge for many developing countries and cities.
Types of wastes

1. Liquid Waste 2. Solid Rubbish

CAUSES & EFFECTS
CAUSES
When one event causes another to happen.
The cause is why it happens, the effect is
what happens.
Without waste management to remove the
waste materials we have- - we would almost
certainly face regular disease outbreaks -
and even worse ocean and environmental
pollution than we do now.

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT: A
CASE STUDY OF JAIPUR CITY

(Rajasthan), India

    Solid Waste Management is a major concern worldwide. Inadequate handling

of generated solid waste causes serious hazards to environment as well as
living beings. This worldwide problem is also predominating in Jaipur city
also. This case study is done to look out for obstacles and prospects of Solid
Waste in Jaipur. A comprehensive study was done regarding collection,
transportation, handling, storage, disposal and treatment of solid waste
generated in Jaipur city. The data acquired related to SWM was collected
through site visits and interfacing with people. This study discloses that there
is no proper mechanism in the city for treatment of solid waste generated, this
leads to dumping of waste in open areas which causes various problems to
environment as well as humans living in that vicinity.

 SUMMARY
   The overall objective of this study was to investigate Jaipur's solid waste management system
by how the system is implemented, the successes and challenges and how those challenges
are being addressed, and the nature of public- private partnerships and how they can be
improved. 

   At the conclusion of the study, it was found that Jaipur's waste management system involves
many types of workers who all have specialized jobs, including government executives in
political and administrative positions, a permanent and impermanent faction in the formal
sector, the informal sector and private contractors. 

   The formal sector seems to be carrying out their duties effectively and on time, and there are
few complaints from citizens about their interaction with waste service providers. Still
there are many areas for improvement, including better law implementation and
reinforcement, reduction of corruption, updated technology, better-trained staff, more
manpower, increased education and awareness, and more funding. With growing
population and economy of the urban regions in the state, generation of municipal solid
waste is on the rise. The usage of plastics is despoiling the landscape, blocking drainage
systems, and affecting health of animals. There is a need to ensure proper collection,
segregation, processing and disposal of solid waste.

operation and Development) any appliance using an electronic
power supply that has reached its end-of-life would come under MUMBAI 11,000
WEEE (waste from electronic and electrical equipments).
• More recently, policy changes have led to tremendous influx of DELHI 9,000

CONCLUSION
• The challenges of managing E-waste in India are very different from those in
other countries, both the developed and developing.
• E-waste issue in India, given its vast geographical and cultural diversity and
economic disparities, makes WEEE management challenges quite unique.
• Major problem we face in India - No such technology or clear
policy/guidelines to check the disposal of e-waste.
• E-waste is mostly recycled by backyard practioners. The main difficulty,
industries have to afford is the separation of the different material in WEEE.
• Problem leads to several approaches to optimize the process.
• One of the most successful is -
-- the definition of separation systems based on the physical – chemical
properties of materials to make recycling of material constituting WEEE
economically profitable

STEPS TO MANAGE WASTE AT
INDIVIDUAL LEVEL
• In improving collection mechanism
• Waste must be collected at pre-informed timings.The arrival of waste collectors should be
announced through methods such as ringing a bell.
• Waste can be kept inside or outside the house.Different bins for different varieties of wastes
must be kept so that each category of wastewill follow a different path.
• In improving storage of solid waste
• The transfer station needed to be so designed such that the waste can directly be transferred
into a large vehicle or container.Large vehicles having containers with a capacity of 20-30
cubic meters are typically used for disposal sites which are at long distance.The design and
capacity of transfer stations and storage equipment largely depends on thequantity of waste and
on type of vehicles used for primary and secondary waste.
STEPS TO MANAGE WASTE AT
INDIVIDUAL LEVEL
• In improving Disposal of solid waste
• Treatment of organic waste -Household waste can contain 40 or 50 percent organic waste. Waste from
vegetable markets contain even higher in amounts. As organic waste cause major hygienic and
environmental problems in cities and at landfills, the 2000 rules mandate improved management and
treatment of this fraction before final disposal [3]. Several treatment methods for organic waste are
available like composting, anaerobic digestion, Incineration etc.
• Treatment of Inorganic Waste-The inorganic portion of municipal household waste can be divided
into recyclable materials and non-recyclable materials. The earlier recyclable materials are separated
from the solid waste, the higher their value and the easier will be the further processing methods. The
appropriate treatment method or inorganic waste will depend on its physical and chemical
characteristics and also
• on its reuse potential. In India, the principal treatment method for inorganic waste is recycling.
