Abstract:
Solid waste consists of substances or objects that are disposed of and are mostly found where there are human activities, these substances are accumulations of waste materials generated from domestic, commercial, and industrial operations that are deemed unworthy or rejected and required to be disposed of. The study aims to assess the efficiency of waste disposal facilities in Lugbe FCT, with specific objectives to; evaluate the spatial distribution of waste collection sites (dumpsites) in the area, evaluate the proximity of dumpsites (waste collection sites) to the residential areas, and eval

Abstract:
Background: Proteases are proteolytic enzymes having a wide range of applications in various industries such as the food industry, pharmaceutical industry, medicine, leather and textile. Microorganisms are considered potentially to be the most suitable sources of proteases. Prior to industrial applications of proteases, it is important to investigate physical parameters affecting their enzyme activities. Methods: The microorganisms isolated from different waste dumpsites were screened for proteolytic activity using casein as a substrate. The optimum temperature and pH and kinetic parameters su

Abstract:
Monitoring of water quality is needed from time to time to avoid outbreak of severe water borne disease. This article review previous literature on impact of waste dumpsites on water quality around Abakaliki and its environs, with emphasis on active and non-active dumpsite. Findings from reviewed article revealed that waste dumpsite sites close to water bodies or ways has altered water quality in Abakaliki urban, while groundwater is contaminated through leaching process. This groundwater contamination occurs mostly when waste dumpsite is sited close to borehole or hand-dug well. Based on revi

Abstract:
The build-up of heavy metals in agricultural soils is a growing source of worry due to issues with food safety, potential health risks, and negative effects on the environment of the soil. This development required investigation into the relationship between the quality of the dumpsite-soil metal and the rate of plant bioaccumulation. Soil samples were collected at a depth of 0 -45cm from four municipal solid waste dumpsites and farmland within Delta State, Nigeria. The municipal solid waste dumpsite selected are the area with heavy domestic and industrial waste which were overpopulated. Physi

Background. Urbanization, industrialization and changes in consumption patterns have compounded the problem of solid waste management in Nigeria. Poor waste management threatens the well-being and health of the local population, particularly those living adjacent to dumpsites. Objectives. An assessment of the impact of dumpsites in a satellite town of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, Nigeria was carried out to determine the level of biophysical/chemical parameters (pH, temperature, conductivity, nutrients (calcium and magnesium), heavy metals (lead, chromium, zinc), and microbial burden)

Abstract:
Solid waste management is commonly seen in Nigeria as simply pick up the waste and go dump it in a hole somewhere. Hence the current major solid waste management method in Nigeria is disposal at dumpsite. The solid waste management practice at the dumpsite is simple. The waste disposal trucks drive into the dumpsites through the access roads and dump their waste. Other vehicles that deliver waste to the site simply dump their waste indiscriminately by the road sides. The workers at the dumpsites use shovel to manually push the waste from the road and try to spread them as much as their strengt

Groundwater contamination is a global problem that has a significant impact on human health and ecological services. Studies reported in this special issue focus on contaminants in groundwater of geogenic and anthropogenic origin distributed over a wide geographic range, with contributions from researchers studying groundwater contamination in India, China, Pakistan, Turkey, Ethiopia, and Nigeria. Thus, this special issue reports on the latest research conducted in the eastern hemisphere on the sources and scale of groundwater contamination and the consequences for human health and the environ

Abstract:
The research paper examines the issues of waste disposal and disposal management of solid waste, mainly in the hitherto sensitive mountainous regions experiencing an upsurge in tourist activities. Out of all these disputed areas, the impact of environmental degradation resulting from wastes generated by tourism and urbanization, especially in the Hindu Kush Karakoram Himalaya (HKH) and other high-altitude regions of the world, is depicted in this study. The paper also reveals the problem of extreme geographical conditions, harsh ground, impassable roads, and an insufficient number of dumpsites
