utilization.
Household waste is generally classified as municipal waste.
Industrial waste as hazardous waste .
Biomedical waste or hospital waste as infectious waste.

Municipal Corporation .
Major objective of the project is to develop the concept of source segregation
of biodegradable and non biodegradable solid waste.
PARAMETER DESCRIPTION
Ward 55 & 59
Solid waste management in India is an emerging and engaging area of study. Solid
waste should be managed through a number of activitieswaste prevention, recycling,
composting, controlled burning, or landfilling .
Our project which is conducted on solid waste management in Guwahati city enabled
us to learn about the management procedures and the techniques used in Guwahati for
managing the citys solid waste.
In Guwahati, there are no recycling units in the vicinity of the dumping ground and the
recycling business is running in an unorganized manner.
Due to the lack of willingness and lack of awareness about the ill effects of solid waste
management among the citizens of Guwahati, many planned projects which have been
proposed by the government has been put to hold leading to unscientific and
unmanageable technique of solid waste management.
