Solid waste processing is a major concern with respect to various developing countries. India as a developing country has changing consumption patterns and rapid economic growth. In Urban India 62 million tones of municipal solid waste are generated each year, it is predicted that urban municipal solid waste will be increased to 165 million tons in 2030.[10] The waste management process should be effectively planned to reduce waste dumping in landfills. To manage the waste in a developing country like India it is important to plan the process of collection, transportation, and segregation of waste from the ground level. This paper reviews various technological developments and methods that are implemented to manage the solid waste management process. It also discusses the existing processes and government plans and programs towards efficient waste management. This paper proposes a methodology that can be implemented to manage solid waste processing; an application is developed in order to manage the day-to-day operations of waste management. The data collected from the application can be used for further processing and analysis to get insights about the ineffective activities in the process. By the implementation of this application, the process of collection and transportation of waste management can be systematically managed.
