dc.description.abstract |
This paper, a continuation and expansion of the work of Muzenda et al, 2012 [1] looks at the current waste generation and management trends in South Africa. The waste tyre problem in South Africa is also briefly discussed. Solid waste management is a growing environmental problem in developing countries such as South Africa. The increasing standard of living and economic growth results in challenges in the management of both general and hazardous waste. Landfill sites life spans have been reduced and hence the need for waste minimization, utilization and alternative disposal methods. Waste tyre management is challenge as they are non compactable and non-biodegradable. The Integrated Waste Management Plan (IWMP) proposed by the Recycling and Economic Initiative of South Africa (REDISA) is a waste tyre recycling and utilization initiative. This paper is review on the current waste generation and management in South Africa. The objectives of this paper were achieved through a literature review. |
