  • Abstract:
  • Amongst many environmental hazards torturing the communities of the world today, solid waste is most hazardous for the environment. It is the haphazard disposal of solid waste that causes pollution while its proper management assures healthy conditions. The major objectives of Solid waste management (SWM) are the maintenance of clean and hygienic conditions and reduction in the quantity of solid waste. Solid waste management (SWM) is one of the basic services organized and administered by the municipal authorities in the country to improve the cleanliness of the local surroundings of the country. Poor management of solid waste leads to cluttering and in this way unsanitary living conditions. There are traditional as well as new methods of waste disposal have been practiced to manage solid waste including dumping, landfilling, incineration, recycling, composting and bio-gasification. The article has described the bio-gasification technique, its procedure and benefits through site visited case studies. The article mentioned around three case studies viz., domestic bio gas plant at Karad, Karad Municipal Corporation’s biogas plant and biogas plant at Council hall, Pune. The reported case studies revealed that bio-gasification technology can be beneficial to the environment, economy, waste as resource of energy and best approach towards SWM.
