ABSTRACT

Solid waste comprises all the waste arising from the human and animal activities that area normally solid, discarded as useless or unwanted. It includes by production of process, lines or material that may be required by law to be disposed. The study scrutinized the Urban Solid Waste Management and It's Implication on Health using Abeokuta South L.G.A. in Ogun State as a case study. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were laid out to know the physical, chemical and biological effect of Solid Wastes on underground water and determine the amount of wastes within the study areas and identify factors that affects waste disposal and the type of solid waste disposal system that will aid economic development of the state. The problem of Solid Wastes and its effect on the quality of underground water is now the focus of attention all over the world. The problem of waste generation in the country in the recent past had been quite tremendous, necessitating the need for this project. The menace of Solid Waste generation is most prominent in developed and industrialized countries; this is because complexity of generated waste is directly proportional to development in science and technology. Construction and operation of land filling material, recovery system, and incineration systems have become very costly. The study will be relevant to policy makers and implementers will benefit immensely from this study especially from its finding and recommendations. It would also help stimulating indiscriminate disposal of solid waste.


CHAPTER ONE

1.1 Introduction

Solid waste management is the most pressing environmental challenge faced by urban and rural areas of Nigeria. Nigeria, with population exceeding 170 million, is one of the largest producers of solid waste in Africa. Despite a host of policies and regulations, solid waste management in the country is assuming alarming proportions with each passing day. Urban Solid Wastes commonly known as trashes or garbages are wastes consisting of everyday items we consume and discard. It predominantly includes food wastes, yard wastes, containers, product packaging, and other miscellaneous inorganic wastes from residential, commercial, institutional and industrial resources. Solid waste management which was relatively bearable in some urban area like Enugu, Lagos, Onitsha, Port-Harcourt, Abeokuta etc. has become impossible now especially with the growing of urbanization. Rural-urban migration and sitting of building and other infrastructure in areas designated as solid waste disposal points.

As a prelude to other parts of this study, this chapter will discuss the background upon which this study was initiated, the statement of problems that led to this study, the Aim and Objectives of the study. Others are Significance of the study, Scope of work, Research hypothesis and questions, Limitations of the Study and Definition of technical terms.
