Journal ArticleDOI
Municipal Solid Waste Generation, Composition, and Management: The World Scenario
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have illustrated MSW generation and composition analysis and have provided a comprehensive review of MSWM in different countries throughout the world based on different countries' characteristics and characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human urine as a source of alternative natural fertilizer in agriculture: A flight of fancy or an achievable reality
TL;DR: In this article, the authors have discussed the merits and demerits of using human urine as a raw material for organic cultivation in agriculture, and proposed a method to address them.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial biomass and enzyme activities in submerged rice soil amended with municipal solid waste compost and decomposed cow manure
TL;DR: The studied parameters were higher when urea was integrated with DCM or MSWC, compared to their single applications, and changes in soil quality parameters should be monitored regularly, since heavy metals once entering into soil persist over a long period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenic fractions and enzyme activities in arsenic-contaminated soils by groundwater irrigation in West Bengal
TL;DR: It is suggested that the enzyme activity can be helpful in assessing the effects of As on biochemical quality of soils and that water soluble and exchangeable forms exert a strong inhibitory effect on the soil enzyme activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of arsenic contamination on microbial biomass and its activities in arsenic contaminated soils of Gangetic West Bengal, India
TL;DR: It is suggested that the microbial biomass, fluorescein diacetate and dehydrogenase activity alone and expressed on a soil organic matter basis along with the soil respiration parameters can be helpful in assessing the effects of arsenic on the size and activity of microbial biomass in soils.
