simple waste management working model for 5th grade for exhibition

The purpose of this research paper was to design a waste management model for Bulawayo City Council (BCC) based on integrated solid waste management system. The increasing solid waste generation in the city of Bulawayo is evidenced by increased number of illegal dumping of waste in the
urban communities. In this paper, a model that identifies cost-effective and efficient combinations of scientific and engineering tools to manage solid waste and also incorporating the key performance indicators (KPIs) or metrics for solid waste management services has been designed. Literature on
different types of waste management models, quantitative analysis of waste at Ross camp, direct observations made in the city locations and policy documents of the Zimbabwean Government (EMA acts), founded the development of this model. The design shows a clear depiction of the environmental
management acts (EMA) and the municipality by-laws. Performance measurement which is very critical in waste management has been incorporated. Model design focus was on waste type which is a determinant of the waste receptacles, collection, transportation and disposal methods have therefore
been depicted in the model. The model provides easy access to data for the formation and implementation of effective solid waste management policies, strategies and programs to achieve sustainable waste management.
