description | The review focuses on the effectiveness of the integrated institutional solid waste management
system in Zimbabwe, utilising already published literature. Zimbabwean institutional solid waste is
produced from schools, tertiary learning institutions, barracks, prisons, police camps and medical
facilities. Institutional solid waste consist of plastics, papers, metals, textiles, rubber, food waste, glass
and wood. Construction and demolition waste such as broken bricks, concrete, sand, stones are also
produced from institutions. Medical institutions are sources of sharps, pathological, infectious,
pharmaceutical, radioactive and cytotoxic solid waste. Institutions also discard electric and electronic
waste such as computers and cell phones. Institutional solid waste management approaches in
Zimbabwe are characterised by illegal dumping, co-storage of waste, ine |
