Introduction: There are eight major categories of waste management, and each of them can be divided into numerous sub-categories. The categories include source reduction and reuse, animal feeding, recycling, composting, fermentation, landfills, incineration, and land application. Domestic waste is waste that is generated as a result of the ordinary day-to-day use of a domestic premise and is either taken from the premises by or on behalf of the occupier who generated the waste; without consideration (e.g., payment, reward or other benefit); or collected by or on behalf of a local government as part of a waste collection and disposal system.
