Abstract
The design, implementation, and operation of efficient and economical solid waste collection, handling, transport, and disposal systems require accurate information on the quantities and characteristics of the solid waste to be processed. The study reported develops methods that can be applied to real (or hypothetical) cities, counties, and regions for estimating the quantity and character of the solid wastes generated at present and at various times in the future.
