PRINCIPLES OF MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
cpheeo.gov.inThe hierarchy usually adopted is (a) waste minimisation/reduction at source, (b) recycling, (c) waste processing (with recovery of resources i.e. materials (products) and energy), (d) waste transformation (without recovery of resources) and (e) disposal on land (landfilling). The highest rank of the ISWM hierarchy is waste minimisation or reduction
