Study on Physical Characterization of Municipal Solid Waste at Thanjavur

Abstract

Huge quantity of wastes like liquid, semi liquid and solid are generated continuously each and every country. Especially the solid waste are the common wastes in this is global. At present in India 188500 tonnes of municipal solid wastes are produced in every day. Following that the disposal of solid waste is the one of the most important criteria in environmental ecosystem. Therefore open dumping of these wastes is creating the environmental problems like leachates. In this study mainly describes the quantity of MSW, solid waste management and physical characterization of MSW at Thanjavur district. Finally the results show the quantity of each waste like plastics, inert materials, papers, organic substances, and glass in MSW.
