| Description | Humankind has been producing waste since the beginning. With the development of civilization, waste is becoming more complex in nature. Rapid urbanization, increasing population, and changes in consumption patterns are affecting the rate of solid waste generation and creating a massive problem for its management in the majority of cities and towns. In many developed and developing nations and countries in transition, managing solid waste has become a subject of great worry because public health is affected by poor solid waste management. It is reported that most of the middle- and low-income countries are facing the problem of waste collection, resulting in open dumping of waste on streets, wastelands, and at open public places (Addaney and Oppong 2015).
