Abstract

Application of hazardous waste management model for cities look into planning a model for collection, storage and disposal of potentially hazardous waste for sustainable cities. The model particularly, illustrates an innovative design for industrial hazardous waste management in a petroleum corporation at Mumbai, India. It is significant that cities shall handle the hazardous waste effectively for sustainable environment conservation. Hazardous waste is potential danger for the citizens in event of disaster. So, what can be effective way to plan a hazardous waste management in cities? How we can develop an accurate model? Some of these research questions are discussed in this research. Finally, this research looks into the major methods for designing a model storage unit for industrial hazardous waste.
