• Solid waste generation is an inevitable consequence from a variety of human activities such as in households, working places, restaurants and shops, shopping complexes, recreational sites etc.;
• Growing population and rapid urbanisation have further increased the burden of solid waste on the receiving environment;
• It is a challenge for all cities or towns in the world to successfully control and manage the increasing amount of solid waste produced without the cooperation from the local public;
• In many cases, waste can be reused or recycled into raw materials or other useful products where depletion of new raw material for production can be avoided.
