B. Technical Description
Background Study:
Waste segregation accumulation has become a challenging aspect in the world today. The
volume of wastes generated in the world today surpasses municipal authority’s capacity to
manage it effectively. Services related to waste management have become inadequate and almost
unavailable as evidenced by proliferation of permanent waste piles and illegal dumping activities
in industrial and commercial residential areas. This inefficiency in waste segregation systems in
urban centers around the world is attributed to the rapid urbanization and lack of skilled waste
management measures and personnel. There is the need to develop a sound material-sound
society to ensure that solid waste is properly managed. Therefore, despite the challenges of solid
waste management, it is vital to harmonize environmental protection by formulating long-term
solutions to the issue of solid waste in across the world.
