摘要：This report consists of the Characterization of municipal solid waste and management of MSW for Muzaffarnagar City, UP, India. Characterization of Municipal Solid Waste in a city of western UP has been performed in order to determine the suitability for waste processing technologies in the city. Characterization is an important parameter in order to decide an appropriate design, cost effective and environmentally friendly municipal waste management system. Physical characterization suggests about the organic and inorganic fraction in the waste. Geotechnical characteristics of waste helps in deciding the technology in design and maintenance of the landfill, whereas chemical characterization of the waste helps in deciding the technology in order to process the waste such as composting, vermicomposting, and Refused Derived Fuel. The results of characterization indicate that the approximated generation of the waste of the city is 135 -145 MTD. The average per capita waste generation is 0.415 kg/person/day. A big fraction of the waste is organic in nature and has a significant calorific value too. Moreover, analysis for better Municipal Solid Waste management also has been done. Around 80 - 85% of the city is covered by door-to-door collection method. The whole city is divided into 41 wards. Each ward has a collection point. Most of the ward’s bin are overflowing throughout the year. Moreover, some of the wards don’t have bins, so open dumping of the waste is taking place. There are not separate bins for organic and inorganic waste. There are 8 dumpers, 5 JCB, 4 tractors and 1 Ace are deployed in the city. There are inadequate labour and transportation system for the conveyance of waste. Composting and RDF are the methods to process the waste. Since last few years load on the treatment plant has increased significantly. There are not enough equipment and machines on the site that can process the waste, which has resulted into the mountains of waste in the site and around the site as well. Heaps of waste around the site cause bed odour and made unhygienic environment in the vicinity. The site has become house for many animals and insects. Still there is no provision of engineered landfill site, so ground water is going to be contaminated. It is observed as environmental problem in future. Due to no landfill provision it is a leachate problem which is the big problem.The thesis summarizes that the current solid waste management system is not sustainable and not proper. The proposed system can be improved on following the list of recommendations mentioned in the thesis. The thesis concludes that people in Muzaffarnagar city area are willing to participate and contribute towards the development of a sustainable system. Finally, a set of recommendations have been provided for laying the foundation towards good solid waste management system in Muzaffarnagar City. Muzaffarnagar city does not have any sanitary landfill for final disposal of the waste. In the Muzaffarnagar Municipal limit, the collected MSW is disposed off Near Kali Nadi and Saharanpur Bus stand (earlier).
