description | The work reported in this paper involves the characterization of
residential solid waste in Amassoma for the determination of household
solid waste management option in Amassoma, Bayelsa state in Nigeria. A
site-specific study was carried out in order to determine the
components and estimate the quantity of residential solid waste
generation in the town. Structured questionnaires were applied to
collect primary information such as size of households, educational
level, monthly income etc. from households. The results from the study
was then applied to determine the waste management option for
residential waste in Amassoma town The results obtained revealed that
the total solid waste generated in Amassoma is 1115.2kg/day from
domestic activities. Furthermore, analysis of the sample collected
showed that 51.34% of compostable waste (garbage) is generated, 33.62%
of combustible waste and 15.04% of incombustible waste is generated in
Ammasoma. The study also showed that dumpsite is the current waste
disposal option in Amassoma. As Amssoma is a riverine area, the use of
landfill for the purpose of solid waste disposal is not a good option
because it can lead to eutrophication. Therefore the recommended safe
option for solid waste management in Ammasoma is an integrated waste
management programme incorporating recycling, composting and
incineration with energy recovery. |
