The aim of this study is to quest the quality of life of people in a residential environment in order to determine their level of health and well-being. Quality of life is normally taken to mean the general well-being of people and the quality of the environment in which they live. Quality of life is defined as an interaction of social, health, economic and environmental conditions that have an impact on the development of the individual and society where this is more related to objective values. On the other hand, when it is defined as the sense of wellbeing of the individual, satisfaction of the individual from his or her life; and the quality of life is emphasized as being related to individual perceptions and senses, this is related to the subjective values. Quality of life in a residential environment is more related to a group of people who are sharing the common physical, social and environmental conditions where objective values determine the quality of life. In this study, it has been observed that the physical, social, environmental and economic conditions of people living in the jalgaon city. Therefore, various analyses have been carried out to determine their level of quality of life this study focuses on the quality of life among the waste management and safety in the residential area and comes up with proposals that will improve the quality of waste management.

The city of jalgaon generate Approximately 1024 tons of waste per day in residential areas most of which do not get treated or disposed off in the right manner. The Waste Management Project has been designed to resolve the waste problem in jalgaon city.

STAGES OF INVOLVEMENT

Generation

Analyze and reduce the sources of waste.

Collection

Identify and improve systems of collection.

Segregation

Identify & evaluate existing processes and put in force more efficient ones.


Treatment

Identify & evaluate current systems and put in force more efficient ones It is observed that there are total 18 waste transfer points in jalgaon district with waste trolley of 158, mini collection trucks 241 numbers and bulk transport trucks 10.

On record. Now the only 64 vehicles are working in city for residential areas and 5 transport trucks are working

Collection

The waste-collection process is very poorly set up in jalgaon city . 100% door to door collection system is implemented.

Segregation

Waste in jalgaon is also not segregated at the point of origin, contaminating the biodegradable part and hindering the proper process of decomposition.

Over time, due to the lack of attention given to the management of the system, current municipal solid waste has become a mixture of different kinds of dangerous constituents like toxic radioactive substances, methane gas, pathogens, industrial effluents, medical, pathological and harmful chemicals.

Treatment

There are four possible ways of treating waste in general. And they are:

1. Open Dumping Ground
2. Composting
3. Recycling

Proposal

DUMPING GROUND: ORIGINAL LOCATION

  • Dumping ground located in ahuja nagar and around at 2km the locality is placed .
  • In the city the dumping area is
  • The dumping zone at least far from city at 5 km.
  • Aahuja Nagar is middle profile area, situated away from National Highway No. 6 in middle part of Jalgaon city having approximately 3000 population. Aahuja Nagar is situated on the land which was formed by landfill of municipal solid waste.
  • The municipal solid waste treatment plant ―Hanjir Biotech‖ is situated near this area so while transportation most of the waste fall out and spread in this area.
  • Such practice causes environmental pollution by deteriorating the ground water quality, encourage the breeding of disease-vector insects, animal scavengers and rodents resulting in spreading of air and water borne diseases.
  • Not any project applied for waste management

PROPOSAL: Suggested Area For Dumping Area

asejar_37_07.jpg

The dumping ground placed at vadnagri it is far from city at 5.6 km, There also not any locality hence the pollution not affected the peoples .There also need cameras to around dumping ground.

Treatment Projects

Action Project: Composting

Given composting is such a great option for jalgaon. The Project will aim to set up composting units. use composting as a major way of getting. Rid of the 85% of our total waste.

Action Project: Recycling

This Project will aim to set up recycling plant units for paper and plastic products, in various parts of dumping remolding product are formed from waste plastic.

Conclusion

The management of solid waste management is the important aspect and that received less attention in developing city such as a jalgaon.


Waste management is the collection ,transport ,processing ,recycling or disposal and monitoring of waste materials. If properly designed applied, waste management can be relatively effective and an efficient compliances –related practice. Safe and effective management of waste in not only legal necessity but also a social responsibility. Lack of concern, motivation, awareness and cost factor are some of the problem faced in the proper waste management. Segregation of waste is the important step and reuse and recycling should be consider in proper perspectives, If we want to protect our in quality of life ,environment and health of community then we must to consider solid waste management.
