Solid Waste Management (SWM)

Solid Waste Management (SWM) is the process of collecting, treating, and disposing of solid waste effectively and sustainably. This includes household garbage, industrial waste, and hazardous materials. The goal is to minimize environmental impact, reduce pollution, and foster public health through proper waste segregation, recycling, composting, and safe disposal methods. Effective SWM involves community participation and solid waste policies to ensure that waste is managed responsibly, helping to conserve resources and maintain a clean environment.
