In India, the traditional methods are used for urban solid waste management. These practices are associated with degradation of the urban environment Hence, an environmentally sound garbage management system is required for the urban waste management. The concept of waste minimization needs to be adopted in such systems. It is possible to implement certain corrective measures at collection, storage, transport and disposal of urban solid waste to minimize the adverse impacts on the environment The present investigations are emphasized on generation, characterzation and ecofriendly disposal of solid waste generated in Jalgaon city, Maharashtra. In the present study the waste generation at source was studied in the various income groups of the city. The per capita waste generation was studied by sampling the waste directly from the source of generation. The study reveals that the waste generation is large in the high-income group followed by middle and low-income group public. Further the physicochemical characterization of the waste was also studied. The data generated will help to develop environmentally sound and economically feasible solid waste management system for Ihe city.
在印度，城市固体废物管理采用传统方法。这些做法与城市环境退化相关。因此，城市废物管理需要一个环境友好的垃圾管理系统。此类系统需要采用废物最小化的概念。在城市固体废物的收集、储存、运输和处置过程中，实施某些纠正措施以尽量减少对环境的不利影响是可行的。目前的调查重点是马哈拉施特拉邦贾尔冈市产生的固体废物的产生、特征描述和生态友好处置。在本研究中，对该市不同收入群体的源头废物产生情况进行了研究。通过直接从产生源头对废物进行采样来研究人均废物产生量。研究表明，高收入群体产生的废物量很大，其次是中等收入和低收入群体。此外，还对废物的物理化学特征进行了研究。所生成的数据将有助于为该市开发环境友好且经济可行的固体废物管理系统。
