Assessment of Domestic Solid Waste Management Status in Ba Be District, Bac Kan Province, Vietnam

Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2024, Vol 9, Issue 11

Abstract

The study has applied some traditional research methods to assess the current status of domestic solid waste (DSW) management and suggest solutions for DSW management in Ba Be district, Bac Kan province, Vietnam. The results showed that the total amount of DSW is 10 tons/day The composition of DSW includes organic matter (67.52%), inorganic matter (22.13%) and hazardous waste (0.32%). Ba Be district currently has only 4/16 communes and towns with incinerators, 01 centralized waste treatment area in Banh Trach commune, with a capacity of 500 kg/h, only receiving DSW from Cho Ra town and some villages in neighboring communes. Rural DSW is mainly collected and treated simply by manual burning, or buried in the garden of the household. The rate of collected and treated rural DSW is only 50%. Although the local government has made great efforts in the DSW management, however the DSW management still has many shortcomings such as lack of human resources and equipment for collection and labor protection; many localities do not have DSW collection points and have not yet implemented environmental protection fees for DSW; rural DSW has not been effectively treated. Source-based DSW classification has not been implemented in communes and there is still no mandatory mechanism.
