Abstract
Any substance that is not in use or is unwanted is called a “waste”. Waste
management is the proper control of waste in order to protect it from environmental
hazards. Industrial waste, commercial waste, domestic waste, agricultural waste, and
electronic waste are a few types of waste that can be categorized. Environmental
problems such as water pollution, air pollution, and soil pollution are a few different
problems that can occur due to the improper management of waste. Landfill
incineration, waste compaction, composting, vermicomposting, recycling, plasma
gasification, and conversion of waste into energy are some innovative methods of
waste management that are discussed in this work.
