Abstract

The world today is facing the challenge of rational resource management and recovery for the huge amount of plastic waste. The lack of technical skills for hazardous waste management, inadequately developed recycling and recovery infrastructure, and, above all, a lack of knowledge about rules and regulations are key factors. Behind this huge accumulation of plastic waste. The severity of plastic pollution has detrimental effects on the environment and the entire ecosystem. In this study, domestic waste is one of the main sources of municipal solid waste including food waste, paper, plastic, rags, metal, and glass from residential areas. The main bottleneck lies in its removal. This study could provide the Jaipur government with background information to determine the future implementation of household waste segregation activities. This study also proposes to focus on community involvement in segregation at source, waste minimization, and recycling as a habit and way of life. Local governments can facilitate this by providing bins for sorting waste and by setting up waste banks and recycling facilities on a larger scale than those currently available. The indiscriminate disposal of plastic waste at an astonishing rate has led to the search for comprehensive, effective, and sustainable remediation studies in search of a practical alternative to the management, disposal, and destroy plastic debris. While there are a number of processes such as incineration, landfilling, and recycling already in place, they are unsustainable, expensive, and have serious impacts on the environment, wildlife, marine, and human health.
