Delhi, the capital of India, has emerged as a major industrial city
resulting in generation of huge quantity of solid waste. Wazirpur
industrial area is one of the major contributors towards the
problem of hazardous waste in the city as it hosts numerous iron
and steel processing units. The waste generated is strongly acidic
in nature. In addition, high concentration of heavy metals are
present in this waste, making it highly hazardous and a threat for
the ambient environment. Since sulfuric acid is used for cleaning
of metal and metal related products, sulfur constitutes an
important fraction of the waste, apart from significant quantities
of plant nutrients. In order to assess the suitability for the land
disposal of these wastes after treatment, a laboratory-incubation
study was taken in order to assess the effect on with reference to
soil quality and sulfur status.
