Abstract

Solid waste management (SWM) including generation, storage, collection, transportation,
treatment and disposal of wastes has become the nation’s primary concern as the
population and generation of municipal solid wastes in India are in an increasing trend.
The lifestyle of the people has also changed considerably and impacted the quality
and quantity of solid waste in urban cities. Hence, the current conventional method of
combined treatment and disposal of mixed municipal solid waste could not serve the
current generation of MSW in urban areas and this gap needs to be filled with innovative
treatment methods and strategic approaches. Therefore, various innovative approaches
and research works are being carried out to meet the gap. Based on CSIR-CLRI expertise
in tannery liquid and solid waste management especially using aerobic, anaerobic,
membrane, phyco-remediation, advanced and thermal treatment methods, different
strategies for treatment and disposal methods for municipal solid waste in urban areas
have been planned and investigated under laboratory and pilot scale studies
