Abstract:
Municipal solid waste (MSW) management is a critical concern in rapidly urbanizing areas, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa and Nigeria, where population growth, rapid urbanization, and poverty worsen waste generation challenges. This thesis focuses on Abuja, a fast-growing city facing escalating MSW issues. With a projected population increase to 6.1 million by 2035, there is a pressing need to assess the capacities of existing waste dumpsites. A previous study revealed a current MSW generation rate of 973,557 tonnes in 2023, Abuja faces environmental and health threats if not managed effect

In many countries, open dumping is considered the simplest, cheapest, and most cost-effective way of managing solid wastes. Thus, in underdeveloped economies, Municipal Solid Wastes (MSW) are openly dumped. Improper waste disposal causes air, water, and soil pollution, impairing soil permeability and blockage of the drainage system. Solid Waste Management (SWM) can be enhanced by operating a well-engineered site with the capacity to reduce, reuse, and recover MSW. Makkah city is one of the holiest cities in the world.

Abstract:
In many developing countries, open dumping remains the primary method for disposing of municipal solid waste (MSW). However, this practice causes significant environmental problems. Leachate from these dumpsites pollutes surface water, while heavy metals from the waste contaminate groundwater over time. Additionally, the release of gases such as CO₂, CH₄, and other toxic emissions contributes to air pollution and exacerbates climate change. These dumpsites not only harm the environment but also become unsightly, emphasizing the urgent need for sustainable and eco-friendly waste disposal method

This paper will describe both of these corrosion control methods, with specific emphasis on application and experience. Both mass-burn and refuse-derived-fuel (RDF) systems will be addressed.

Abstract Waste-to-Energy (WTE) and biomass-fired power generation systems are gaining in popularity worldwide as a means of cleanly disposing of waste and generating needed power in the same operation. Due to the variety of components in the feedstock, conditions vary greatly in the combustion sections of these systems. Municipal solid waste (MSW) often contains significant quantities of plastics which introduce halogens and halides into the environment when burned. Their presence greatly increases the corrosion rate of iron-base materials, thus, necessitating the use of higher nickel alloys.

Recovery of energy from MSW by combustion in Waste-to-Energy (WTE) plants reduces landfilling and air/water emissions, and also lessens dependence on fossil fuels for power generation.

Gasification uses a relatively small amount of oxygen or water vapor to convert the organic compounds into a combustible gas. Its advantages are a much lower volume of process gas per unit of MSW and thus smaller volume of gas control equipment; also, gasification generates a fuel gas tha

Abstract:
In the proposed work, an optimization model of transportation of municipal solid waste (MSW) of the urban agglomeration carried out by the waste processing and disposal complex is formulated and investigated. The complex includes waste processing plants, landfills and transport enterprises. Optimization here means minimizing the costs (fuel, time, finance) for the transportation of MSW from their accumulation sites (garbage sites) to processing points (waste processing plants) and landfills (landfills).

Abstract:
This document is a collection of available data on solid waste management in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). The following bullet points contain a brief description of the most relevant data: The regional average per capita generation of Domestic Solid Waste (DSW) and Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is 0.6 kg/cap/day and 0.9 kg/cap/day, respectively. DSW represents, on average, 67% of the MSW generated in the region. The MSW regional average collection rate is 89.9% (as a percentage of the population). Compared with a worldwide average of 73.6%, LAC has a high level of coverage, reflecting

Abstract:
As part of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) strategy to promote good practices in municipal solid waste (MSW) management and knowledge sharing activities in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), the IDB Water and Sanitation Division (INE/WSA) is developing a MSW management working paper series. The first paper, which focuses on landfill gas (LFG) capture from MSW and utilization, is included in this Guidance Note.
