effectiveness of solid waste management thesis

JULIO CASTILLO JR

ABSTRACT Title : Environmental Reforms: An Eco-Friendly Zone for Barangay 640 Researcher : Julio O. Castillo, Jr., DBA Institution : San Beda University-Manila Year : 2018 The researcher, inspired by the Institutional Community Involvement programs of the San Beda College, made an effort to explore a research endeavor which focuses on the waste management and recycling programs of one of its community partners, the barangay 640 of San Miguel, Manila. A better understanding of our environmental problems will help us resolve issues of waste management specifically on the communities or barangay levels of the country. The study will help the community to determine how the barangays will be informed and utilized this information to create a better and clean environment. At the same time a proposed action plan focusing on recycling was recommended as well in the latter part of this research. It is for these reasons that this study was conducted. The common environmental problem of all places in the Philippines is the disposal of solid-waste materials. Solid-waste management is a system for handling all of this garbage and prevents escalation in spreading diseases among others. Barangay 640 Zone 65 of San Miguel, Manila is only one of the places where one can see and find piles of garbage in some of its street corners. The researcher conducted a study in Barangay 640, San Miguel Manila on their solid-waste management. The plan of the barangay officials on their waste collection, recycling programs, dumps and its material recovery facility was tackled as well. Keywords: Community Involvement, Waste Management, Recycling waste, waste, waste segregation, waste reduction.

This Municipal Ecological Solid Waste Management Plan (MESWMP) was prepared to provide a guide for solid waste management activities in the municipality of Camaligan, Camarines Sur. Its preparation was undertaken in consonance with the specific provision of Municipal Ordinance No. 007-009, Series 2009, which took RA 9003 (otherwise known as the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000) as its legal basis. Among its important features are the: creation of SWM Boards at the municipal and barangay levels; diversion of 25% of solid waste by the LGU from waste disposal facilities through reuse, recycling, and composting within five years; establishment of a Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) in every barangay or cluster of barangays; closure of open dump sites; mandatory waste segregation and recycling at the barangay level; civil, criminal, and administrative liability of violators; incentives to LGUs, private entities and NGOs to encourage participation in ESWM; and fees to be levied on waste generators for management services; fines and penalties to be set for violators.

This paper explored the dynamics of environmental care discourses in the context of community learning in Barangay Bued. The community through its collective efforts revived its biologically dead river and successfully implemented waste segregation in every home. They managed their waste through recycling and composting three years before such practices were mandated by the Ecological Solid Waste Management (ESWM) Act of 2000 (RA 9003). Their experience qualified them to be one of the winners in the first National Search for Model Barangay in ESWM. What are the environmental care discourses found in the community? How do they emerge and plant their roots? What representations do they create? To answer these questions, ethnography was employed along with deconstruction and critical discourse analysis. The researcher entered into the Barangay Bued scene as a participant observer. This paper identified four environmental care discourses. The spiritual discourse views environmental care as a religious campaign. This projects environmental care as a battle between good and evil and learning is typified as a “conversion” process. The discourse casts people as strong warriors watching over a vulnerable and helpless environment. Techno-managerial discourse in environmental care is about using the right processes and materials. This set of knowledge is usually held by the so-called experts belonging to scientific communities in the government, international organizations, and private corporations. This discourse normalizes people as deficient and needy and the environment as an objectified helpless captive. Environmental care as an economic concern is about providing income to waste management workers and lucrative profit to owners of wasterelated businesses. This discourse normalizes people as consumers and potential borrowers. A prize tag is attached to the environment, to be auctioned to the highest bidder. And finally, the communitarian discourse refers to environmental care as a collective concern of people in a group, of being led by a trustworthy leader and finding enjoyment in collective action. The discourse casts the people as culturally capable to work together to protect their environment. The environment is a nurturing place where people connect with their collective past. This discourse is reproduced through compelling folklore-like stories and cultural symbols. These four discourses clash in a relationship marked by dominance and resistance. The technicist discourses take the dominant position, exerting their claim to be the official version of environmental care. They strike fear and ascribe blame to people, casting them as deficient, needy, and disempowered to enter into a dialogue and to take effective actions. Barangay Bued resisted the dominating discourses and instead took a critical stance and melded their own mix of discourses. Their acts of resistance asserted their position as the protector of their environment. The success of Barangay Bued in environmental care can be specifically attributed to their view of success-- not in terms of quantity of diverted waste but in terms of people’s internalization of environmental care. They adopted Education First approach bolstered by the political will of their leaders, many of whom were women. Their educative approach is outbound, informal, continuous, participated by garbage collectors and students, oriented towards small groups, spiritually and value-driven and utilizing existing cultural symbols and traditions. In the end, this study argues that the greening of a local community is a synergy of Formal, Nonformal, and Informal Education. It recommends the conceptualization of literacy programs contextualized to the activities and materials available to the disadvantaged groups involved in the waste management sector.

The 10 Yr. Municipal Ecological Solid Waste Management Plan (Revised) for the Municipality of Camaligan, Camarines Sur, was corrected as per guidelines set forth in the DENR - National Solid Waste Management Commission letter dated 4 January 2013 in order to supplement the earlier version under the same title.

Management of solid wastes in the Philippines has long been a responsibility of the Local Government Units in the country since the enactment of Republic Act 9003 also known as the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2002. In support to the local government of Batangas City, this study was conducted to propose a plan of action that will enhance the level of implementation of solid waste management in the city, lessen the harmful effects to the environment and health of the people and find solutions to problems encountered in its implementation . The descriptive survey method was used with 204 respondents taken by stratified sampling from selected 69 barangays. A Likert scale instrument was used to measure the level of implementation of solid waste management practices of the residents and the problems encountered by the residents in the implementation of solid waste management practices. A checklist determine the effects of the implementation of solid waste management practice...

Abstract: This case study investigates solid waste management practices of personnel and owners of Panglao in-land and beach-front resorts since these places are the main avenues of tourism. A questionnaire and field surveys were performed in the randomly selected Panglao resorts. Findings revealed that both inland and beach-front resorts generate several kinds of waste and are conscious of the SWM practices particularly on segregation of wastes but this is not strictly followed; however, on the aspects of SWM on solid waste reduction, recycling/ reuse and disposal are unsurprisingly unsustainable Hence, a suitable waste-management plan needs to be made in order to improve the resort’s SWM practices utilizing the Municipal ordinance no.1 dubbed as the Comprehensive Solid waste Management Ordinance of the Municipality of Panglao with the help and support of the LGU of Panglao. Keywords: Solid waste management (SWM), Panglao in-land and beach –front resorts, Comprehensive Solid waste Management Ordinance of the Municipality of Panglao , LGU

Thomas Maani successfully defended his PhD Dissertation

Event Date: July 17, 2024

effectiveness of solid waste management thesis

Thomas Maani successfully defended his PhD Dissertation on July 17, 2024, and officially deposited his dissertation on July 24, 2024. 

Thomas is advised by Dr. John W. Sutherland, Head of the Environmental and Ecological Engineering Department. Originally from Kampala, Uganda, Thomas earned his bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania and a master’s degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from the University of Toledo in Ohio. Following his master’s, he joined the Laboratory for Sustainable Manufacturing (LSM) to pursue his PhD.

His PhD research investigated the material flows, environmental impacts, and economics associated with critical materials used in electric vehicles (EVs) with a special emphasis on circular economy principles. When Thomas joined LSM, he worked on a 3-year project funded by the Ford Motor Company whose goal was to develop decision support tools and identify technologies that will help evaluate and pursue EoL value recovery and closed loop recycling/reuse strategies for rare earth permanent magnets (REPM) in electric vehicles (EVs). Circularizing these REPMs through reuse, remanufacturing, and recycling will help mitigate the supply risks for these magnets while simultaneously lessening the solid waste burden associated with end-of-life (EoL) EVs. Upon the successful completion of the 3-year Ford project in the summer of 2022, Thomas embarked on an internship at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL). While there, he contributed to a project aimed at enhancing their Greenhouse gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy in Technologies (GREET) model. Recognizing his exceptional contributions, Thomas was granted $93,000 to further his research endeavors in critical materials analysis for electric vehicles in partnership with ANL, a collaboration that extended throughout the duration of his PhD studies.

During his Ph.D. program, Dr. Maani has authored or co-authored 9 papers published in prestigious journals and conference proceedings. He was awarded the 2024 Outstanding Research Award by the College of Engineering at Purdue. Additionally, he is a recipient of the Environmental Research and Education Foundation (EREF) scholarship, which recognizes excellence in doctoral research and education in waste management.

Dr. Maani’s dissertation titled “Sustainability Analysis of Critical Materials in Electric Vehicles with Emphasis on Circular Economy Principles” evaluated the demand for critical materials in the U.S. transportation sector under various scenarios, focusing on both light-duty vehicles (LDVs) and medium- and heavy-duty vehicles (MHDVs). Additionally, the potential for value recovery of critical materials from electric vehicles was assessed, followed by an analysis to determine the most effective methods for achieving this recovery.
