Abstract

Kehinde Alare, Taiwo Alare

In recent innovation, refining of waste into biofuel, transformation of waste into useful materials and as well of waste recycling has been accomplished. Waste management has being an important factor in community development. The transformation of waste into useful materials has received much work and the most abundant and useful waste are solid waste. In order to minimize the rate of which solid waste is being wasted and to know amount of solid waste reserved in an area. A database must be developed to know the amount of waste accumulated or generated over a given period of time. Taken into consideration the burning and recycle reduction factor, incremental factor and degradable waste ratio. This paper look for a mathematical formula that can be used to generate data for amount of solid waste accumulated over time for geographical location in respect of mass
