The research results showed that the rate of domestic solid waste generation of the household and individual were 0.74 kg/household/day and 0.2 kg/person/day, respectively. Domestic solid waste in the study area has a a veriety of composition, of which organic waste accounted for the highest proportion (72.7%), plastic component accounted for 13.4%, and glass tookup 2.7%, hazardous waste occupied 1.4% and other components accounted for 3.6%.
