This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waste generation, both domestic and industrial, continues to increase world-wide in tandem with growth in consumption. In the developed countries, per capita waste generation increased nearly three-fold over the last two decades, reaching a level five to six times higher than that in the developing countries. With increases in populations and living standards, waste generation in the developing countries is also increasing rapidly, and may double in volume in the current decade (African Development Bank, 2002) This book has come at a time when there is a great need for knowledge on the Impact of Privatisation of Domestic Solid Waste Management on Environmental Sanitation in Municipalities. It has been written in a report form to present the findings of the study done in Kinondoni Municipality, Dar-es-Salaam City, Tanzania.

Book Synopsis Improving Municipal Solid Waste Management in India by : P U Asnani
Download or read book Improving Municipal Solid Waste Management in India written by P U Asnani and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2007-11-30 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solid Waste Management (SWM) is a matter of great concern in the urban areas of developing countries. The municipal authorities who are responsible for managing municipal solid waste are unable to discharge their obligations effectively because they lack the in-house capacity to handle the complexities of the process. It is heartening to see that the World Bank has prepared this book covering all important aspects of municipal SWM in great depth. The book covers very lucidly the present scenario of SWM in urban areas, the system deficiencies that exist, and the steps that need to be taken to correct SWM practices in compliance with Municipal Solid Waste (Management and Handling) Rules 2000 ratified by the Government of India. The book shares examples of best practices adopted in various parts of the country and abroad, and very appropriately covers the institutional, financial, social, and legal aspects of solid waste management, which are essential for sustainability of the system. It provides a good insight on how to involve the community, nongovernmental organizations, and the private sector to help improve the efficiency and cost effectiveness of the service, and shows how contracting mechanisms can be used to involve the private sector in SWM services. This book will be a very useful tool for city managers and various stakeholders who deal with municipal solid waste management in the design and execution of appropriate and cost-effective systems.

Book Synopsis Privatization of Waste Management Services in Lebanon by : May Afif Massoud
Download or read book Privatization of Waste Management Services in Lebanon written by May Afif Massoud and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While it is still early to derive conclusions about the effectiveness of the solid waste privatization program in the Greater Beirut area, there are clear indications that privatization has led to increased performance efficiency and environmental protection improvements. Quantitatively, the comparison between solid waste collection in the Greater Beirut Area and Tripoli revealed that the costs per capita and per ton in the former are greater than that in the latter. When compared with typical costs in low and middle-income countries, Beirut costs were ranging between the two, which is reasonable. However, evaluating public versus private solid waste services requires considering more than the immediate costs. Performance quality is a key factor, which is equally important. In conclusion, a management plan, which encompasses contracting for municipal solid waste collection and concession in the form of BOT for solid waste and wastewater treatment and disposal facilities, is considered a feasible option for Lebanon.

Book Synopsis Organising Waste in the City by : Zapata, María José
Download or read book Organising Waste in the City written by Zapata, María José and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2013-05-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a critical perspective on the issue of organising waste in cities, which has often been positioned in terms of relatively narrow engineering, economic and physical science approaches. It emphasises the ways in which the notion of waste, and the narratives and discourses associated with it, have been socially constructed with corresponding implications for waste governance and local waste handling practices. Organising waste in the city takes a broad and international approach to the ways in which the issue of waste is framed, and brings together narratives from cities as diverse as Amsterdam, Bristol, Cairo, Gothenburg, Helsingborg and Managua. Organised into four main sections and with an integrative introduction and conclusion, the book not only provides new insights into the hidden stories of urban and municipal household solid waste and waste landscapes, but also connects concerns regarding urban waste to such issues as globalisation, governance, urban ecology, and social, economic and environmental justice.
Book Synopsis Private Sector Participation in Municipal Solid Waste Management by : Kiran Sandhu

This book was released on 2020-12 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most discernible outcome of the increasing pace of urbanisation, along with the rise in the spate of consumerism in the post-liberalised economic environment has been the dramatic rise in municipal solid waste generation across the urban centres world over and more so in the developing countries. So enormous has been the challenge of managing the same along with the issue of providing efficient service of garbage collection at household and city level that the municipalities since the mid nineties started turning to the private sector. The move was largely fuelled by the international institutions such as the World Bank and other organisations which demonstrated the higher capabilities of the private sector in providing services and managing waste much more efficiently then the Local Governments. Resultantly many developing countries including India turned to privatization as a panacea for their solid waste management woes. However while private sector participation in municipal solid waste management services across Indian cities have being adopted, there is an acute lack of empirical evidence and research assessing its implications from a sustainability perspective.Set against a milieu of solemn concerns emanating from inadequate municipal solid waste management on one side and the impetus given to private sector participation, this research critically examines and generates empirical evidence on the performance and implications of private sector participation in municipal solid waste management through the lens of a sustainability assessment prism specifically constructed for this purpose. In order to get to the depth of performance analysis, the research employs a single case study research design using the city of Amritsar as the case for application of the sustainability assessment framework. With robust evidence emerging from the four-cornered sustainability prism i.e. social, economic, environmental and institutional, the study offers valuable insights for retrospection and course correction in Indian cities and other similar contexts. More over one of the main contributions emerging from the research is the development of a sustainability assessment framework for evaluating privatized operations in waste management context. Thus the same can be used by Researchers and Governments across developing countries in particular to evaluate and assess privatized municipal solid waste management and apply the yardsticks of measurement across the social, economic, environmental and institutional dimensions of sustainability underlying such operations. The same would be immensely useful in informing Governmental policies in decision making related to improvising the operations, replicating the privatization models or replacing them with better options as the case may be.
Book Synopsis Environmental and Health Impact of Solid Waste Management Activities by : R M Harrison
Download or read book Environmental and Health Impact of Solid Waste Management Activities written by R M Harrison and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2007-10-31 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solid waste management issues are a highly emotive topic. Disposal costs need to be balanced against environmental impact, which often results in heated public debate. Disposal options such as incineration and landfill, whilst unpopular with both the public and environmental pressure groups, do not pose the same environmental and health risks as, for example, recycling plants. This book, written by international experts, discusses the various waste disposal options that are available (landfill, incineration, composting, recycling) and then reviews their impact on the environment, and particularly on human health. Comprehensive and highly topical, Environmental and Health Impact of Solid Waste Management Activities will make a strong contribution to scientific knowledge in the area, and will be of value to scientists and policy-makers in particular.
Book Synopsis Private Sector Participation in Solid Waste Management by : Patrick Louigueur Dorvil
Download or read book Private Sector Participation in Solid Waste Management written by Patrick Louigueur Dorvil and published by Sudwestdeutscher Verlag Fur Hochschulschriften AG. This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for investment in the Solid Waste (SW) sector in Low- and Middle Income Countries (LMIC) far outstrips their financial resources. One of the solutions recommended is the involvement of the private sector. This book aims to demonstrate the limitations of privatisation models to the concept of Integrated Sustainable SW Management (ISSWM) This investigation discovered that the main contradictions include the nature of solid waste (limitation of Standard Market Model to cope with public goods), the limitation of so- called "Pareto Efficiency," the presence of externalities, free-rider issues, low-income areas, and a decided lack of accurate information and the prevalence of asymmetric information (or "symmetric lack of information. The success of PSP does not necessarily depend on competition, but rather on good inter-organisational relationships. This book highlights the crucial importance of good inter- organisational relationships. Government agencies or private agencies should enhance the monitoring of outsourced SW services, and new systems to strengthen the managerial capacity of municipal managers should be introduced.
