Solid waste generation rates and composition vary from country to country depending on the economic situation, industrial structure, waste management regulations and life
· Almost every activity results in the generation of solid waste. India is one of the largest waste generator in the world. On an average, a single person generates an average of 1 to 2 kgs of solid waste everyday. It is estimated that approximately Million MT of solid waste is generated every day in India of which only 20% is treated.
