Municipal solid waste (MSW) management is a critical global challenge due to increasing urbanization and population growth. This context highlights the challenges faced by urban societies in handling municipal solid waste and innovative solutions and technologies employed for efficient waste management. Integrated MSW management strategies aim to maximize resource recovery while minimizing the environmental and social impacts. It emphasizes the potential benefits of adopting advanced waste management and recycling practices both in terms of environmental conservation and socio-ecological viability. Collaborative efforts between governments, industries, and communities are crucial and mandatory for the successful implementation of comprehensive MSW management and recycling programs.
