The rule amended in 2000 is municipal solid waste management, now it is renovated as solid waste management 2015(1). This paper showcases various methods adopted to convert solid waste into useful products.

Keywords:Environment, sustainability, municipal solid waste, case study, transformation of waste to usable products
