The type of waste also reflects the level of development of the society and its cultural attainment. Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is produced from residential, commercial, industrial and institutional activities. The proportion of waste production is an indicator of socio-economic affluence of the area. Higher standards of living lead to higher consumption and greater generation of waste. The solid waste generated and its composition is impacted by socioeconomic factors like the average family size, number of rooms, monthly income, and employment status. This paper is an attempt at examining the solid waste generation scenario in Hyderabad vis a vis other city of the world or the average Indian situation. It has been found that larger families generate less solid waste compared to smaller ones. The work of the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) is examined in handling the solid waste. The municipal solid waste is examined over a temporal perspective, Waste composition, physical characteristics of waste, capacity of transfer stations, weight of garbage and waste generated per head per locality are studied as also the disposal of solid waste and loss of Municipal solid waste. Keywords: Municipal solid waste , Waste composition, Characteristics of waste, Transfer stations, Waste generated per head Introduction Urbanisation, industrialization and a consumer-oriented society lead to rising levels of Solid Waste generation. With increasing urbanization, the amount of solid waste generated is multiplying multifold. The type of waste also reflects the level of development of the society and its cultural attainment. 'Waste characteristics vary according to season, income level, population, social behaviour, climate, and industrial production, the size of markets for waste materials and the extent of urbanization, effectiveness of recycling, and work reduction' (10). Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is produced from residential, commercial, industrial and institutional activities. The proportion of waste production is an indicator of socio-economic affluence of the area. Higher standards of living lead to higher consumption and greater generation of waste. The composition of the waste is also a reflection of the economy of the area that generates the waste. 1 Kalpana Markandey The Indian Geographical Journal, 95 (1) June - 2020 The solid waste generated and its composition is impacted by socioeconomic factors like the average family size, number of rooms, monthly income, and employment status. 'It was also reported that there is a direct relation between the solid waste composition and the social activities in the community. In addition, other factors including change in the source-sorting behaviour and consumption of goods are among other factors affecting the composition of the solid waste and the quantity in households. Socio-cultural, economic, legal, political and environmental factors as well as the available resources are the main issues that affect the MSW management in all countries' (5). 'Waste management is one of the priority issues concerning protection of the environment and conservation of natural resources' (1). In 2002 there were 2.9 billion urban residents in the world who created about 0.64 kg of municipal solid waste (MSW) per person per day (0.68 billion tonnes per year). By 2012 there were about 3 billion inhabitants producing 1.2 kg waste per person per day (1.3 billion tonnes per year). By 2025 this is likely to increase to 4.3 billion urban inhabitants producing about 1.42 kg/capita/day of municipal solid waste (2.2 billion tonnes per year) (4). In China, for instance, municipal solid waste increased from 31.3 million tonnes in 1980 to 212 million tonnes in 2006. The rate of generation increased from 0.50 kg/ capita/day in 1980 to 0.98 kg/capita/year in 2006 (2). In Malaysia the per capita solid waste generation is 0.5 to 0.8 kg/person/day in which domestic waste is the main source; it has increased to 1.7 kg/person/day in major cities by 2003 (7).

  • Rural Poverty in India: Structure, Determinants and Suggestions for Policy Reform
    Rural Poverty in India: Structure, determinants and suggestions for policy reform Raghbendra Jha ABSTRACT Poverty, particularly rural poverty, has been one of the enduring policy challenges in India. Surely the most important objective of the reforms process would have been to make a significant dent on rural poverty. It is from this that a program of accelerated growth must draw its rationale. In this paper, I discuss the evolution of poverty in India – particularly during the reform period. Then I analyze the structure and determinants of this poverty. The rate of decline of poverty declined during the 1990s as compared to the 1980s. I advance some reasons for this. Policy prescriptions for a more effective anti poverty strategy are discussed.

Introduction This paper addresses the important issue of anti-poverty policy in India. In analyzing poverty I use the well-known NSS data set; hence concentrating on consumption measures of poverty. The poverty measures used in this paper are all drawn from the popular Foster-Greer- Thorbecke class of functions written as: = − α Yα ∑[(z yi ) / z] / n (1) < yi z where Y is the measure of poverty, yi is the consumption of the ith household or the ith class of household, z is the poverty line1, n is the population size, and α is a non-negative parameter. The headcount ratio, HC, given by the percentage of the population who are poor is obtained when α=0.

The demand of water is increasing day by day. So, groundwater resources play a vital role for additional demand by farmers and Industries and domestic usage leads to rapid development of groundwater. About 63% of available groundwater resources are now being used. However, the development is not uniform all over the State, and in certain districts of Tamil Nadu, intensive groundwater development had led to declining water levels, increasing trend of Over Exploited and Critical Firkas, saline water intrusion, etc. ADMINISTRATIVE SET UP The total geographical area of the Dindigul distict is6, 26,664 hectares, which is about 4.82 percent of the total geographical area of Tamil Nadu state.Thedistrict, is well connected by roads and railway lines with other towns within and outside Tamil Nadu.This district comprising 359 villages has been divided into 7 Taluks, 14 Blocks and 40 Firkas.

  • Mapping of Fluoride Endemic Areas and Assessment of Fluoride Exposure
    SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 407 (2009) 1579– 1587 available at www.sciencedirect.com www.elsevier.com/locate/scitotenv Mapping of fluoride endemic areas and assessment of fluoride exposure Gopalan Viswanathana,⁎, A.

It is necessary to find out the fluoride endemic areas to adopt remedial Received in revised form measures to the people on the risk of fluorosis. The objectives of this study are to estimate the 3 October 2008 fluoride exposure through drinking water from people of different age group and to elucidate Accepted 9 October 2008 the fluoride endemic areas through mapping. Assessment of fluoride exposure was achieved Available online 28 November 2008 through the estimation fluoride level in drinking water using fluoride ion selective electrode method. Google earth and isopleth technique were used for mapping of fluoride endemic Keywords: areas. From the study it was observed that Nilakottai block of Dindigul district in Tamil Nadu Fluorosis is highly fluoride endemic. About 88% of the villages in this block have fluoride level more Water pollution than the prescribed permissible limit in drinking water. Exposure of fluoride among different Fluoride intake age groups was calculated in this block, which comprises 32 villages.

Groundwater pollution occurs when used water is returned to the hydrological cycle. The present study aims to assess the spatial variations of groundwater quality parameters in Southern tip of Karnataka using [email protected] Geoinformatics technique. Efforts have been made to evaluate a total number of 46 representative groundwater samples (C1 to C46) from different parts of the Department of Studies in Earth study area during pre-monsoon period (April-May 2005) to assess its parameters Science, Centre for Advanced Studies in - 3- 3- - 2+ 2+ + 2- + Precambrian Geology, University of Mysore, such as F , NO , CO , Cl , Ca , Mg , Na , SO4 , Fe, K , pH and EC.
