BATNEEC Analysis of Solid Waste Disposal in Nigeria

Best Available Technology Not Entailing Excessive Costs (BATNEEC) is a sustainable waste management system that effectively analyses series of methodologies, Best Practicable Environmental Options (BPEO) and their impacts as applicable in solid waste management within the environment to reducing cost, fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions as the key performance indicators, in line to ensuring global sustainability of Zero waste tolerance. It¿s generally known in most developed nations such as EU with recent regulations and practices has given preferences on preventive measures to reduce waste volumes through different processes of management. Similarly, revers is the case when compared with the developing nations. As this research had reveled vast resources through waste disposals yet on taped from Nigerian waste sector, vis-a-vis the sequential quantifications of Nigerian carbon footprint in GHG emission of CO2 and CH4 equivalent in tons.
