Disposal of hazardous wastes in India poses severe threat owing to
increasing trend of the quantum generation of such wastes as
against the fixed land available for disposal. Installation of TSDF
for hazardous wastes has an important role to play in this regards.
This book attempts to assess the viability of a proposed TSDF in
abandoned stone mine comparing it with two other types of sites,
namely abandoned open cast coal mine and fertile/agricultural land.
Locational criteria and other associated factors available under
Indian regulatory regimes are largely utilized with the findings of
a brief review of background research works based on TSDF to
develop this presentation. The SWOT and conceptual cost analyses
carried out in a realistic manner on the proposed TSDF showing the
financial gains to be attained by the Government are incorporated.
This book, thus attempts to cover a broad audience for instance,
the academicians as well as researchers engaged in environmental
(waste) management practices, policy makers as well as regulatory
agencies responsible for framing and implementing various
environmental regulations respectively, and finally the practicing
environmental engineers.
