ABSTRACT:
Waste are substances or objects which are intended to be disposed or are required to be disposed off by the provision of national laws. Industrial waste is a type of waste produced by industrial activities, such as that of factories , mills and machines. Toxic waste, chemical waste, Industrial solid waste and Municipal solid waste are designations of industrial waste .These causes the waste landfills to be acknowledged as generators of adverse effects and a hazard for both environment and public health. Companies need to be responsible with their industrial waste management and specifically their hazardous waste. The practices used currently in the collection, transport and storage of urban waste facilitate the multiplication and dissemination of the pathogenic agents and their accompanying breed i.e. insects, rats, crows, stray dogs. The toughest challenge arises from the joint storage of hazardous materials (including toxic sludge, oil products, dyeing residues, metallurgical slag) and solid urban waste. This situation is likely to generate inflammable, explosive or corrosive mixtures and combinations; on the other hand, the presence of easily degradable household may facilitate the decomposition of complex hazardous components, and thus diminish environmental pollution. Another negative aspect is the fact that several recyclable and useful materials are stored in the same place as materials that cannot be recycled; consequently, these materials blend together and become chemically and biologically contaminated, which renders their retrieval rather difficult.

Environmental pollution is the major problem associated with rapid industrialisation, urbanisation and rise in living standards of people. Industrialisation has caused serious problems relating to environmental pollution.Therefore, wastes seem to be
