I read this after "The Galactic Gourmet" and was thoroughly engrossed. What great fantasy and futurism. I could visualize what he was writing about.

This collection of conference papers was published in 1996, so some of the cost information is quite dated. However, the concepts and the issues presented in the book are still very relevant today (2008).

Description:
This paper presents findings of a study, which was carried out in Dar es Salaam city to assess post-privatisation of solid waste collection and disposal. Prior to the assessment, fieldwork studies indicated that current solid waste generation rate in the city is 0.4kg/cap/day and total waste generation is within the range of 2425tons/day. This study also indicated that out of the total waste generated, a total of 957tons/day is collected by the three city municipalities (231tons/day or equivalent to 10% of the total generation), private solid waste collection contractors (592tons/day or equivalent of 24.4%) and through recycling (134tons/day or equivalent of 5.5%). These findings suggest that as a result of privatisation of solid waste collection activities in Dar es Salaam city, solid waste collection has improved from 10% in 1994 to 40% of the total waste generated in the city daily in 2001. The paper recommends that waste recycling and composting activities be encouraged since this approach is considered to be the right measure in attaining sustainability in waste management.
