| 15:05-15:50 | Waste is only waste if we waste it - A global perspective of municipal solid waste and the environment Abstract Modern-age solid waste management has become a pivotal issue in recent years. Waste produced from various sources increases exponentially with the rise in the global population and increased demand for consumption. Many methods have been employed to keep this issue under check. Still, they face some shortcomings, making solid waste management techniques debatable in several forums. As a result, several corporations and governments devised different combinations of waste management techniques to address and mitigate the issue above in an effective and environmentally viable method. The sustainable management of waste aims to control the negative impacts of the waste and have beneficial reuses for it. The processing and transformation of waste ensures conversion of waste into an energy resource and this takes place in two vital ways: the biogenic waste transformation that includes conversion of oldest wastes, the biogenic wastes, into energy and soil amendment. While non biogenic waste transformation involving incineration, pyrolysis, gasification and recycling processes, ensures usage of waste an energy or material resource. The impact of solid waste production and management is significant on environment, especially climate change, through the fallout of atmospheric pollutants, greenhouse gases, heavy metals and organic compounds. This, therefore, calls for the utter need of sustainable solid waste management to further ensure the strengthening of sustainable development goals, recognised in global partnership. The application of techniques in solid waste management like Industrial Ecology and goals like reduction in landfills, are to ensure the strengthening of SDGs like affordable and clean energy, clean water and sanitation, sustainable cities and communities and climate action, on a whole. |
