Kamrangirchar is a raised land and industrial area situated on the bank of the Buriganga River in Dhaka city. The industries of this area are producing a huge amount of solid and liquid wastes all of which are disposed into the Buriganga river and other nearby places. This study attempts to explore the scenario of industrial waste management in Kamrangirchar (raised land) and its effect on the surrounding environment. The methodology of this study includes in-depth interviews and tries to explore the ways of managing waste properly. This study tries to explore more effective ways of managing industrial waste for a sound and safe environment. Environmental pollution has been a major global problem nowadays. Nature is being destroyed because of the excessive exploitation of the environment. Some elements of the environment and ecology like forests, natural sources of water, land, and air are gradually being polluted in Bangladesh, although these are essential for survival. Lack of awareness of the industrial units, poor implementation of the government policy of industrial waste management, inappropriate initiatives to dispose of the waste properly, and ineffective laws are responsible for the improper management of industrial waste in Kamrangirchar which is affecting the environment directly and indirectly.

Industrial Waste Management is one of the serious problems in the era of industrialization. Therefore waste management must be handled early during the production process. This means that the waste treatment process must be carried out from upstream to downstream. This study aims to build a waste management optimization model with quantitative analysis conducted through focus group discussions and in-depth interviews that combine the results of producer and consumer interviews. The results showed that there are many aspects related to waste from the tofu industry in the Abian Body Village, so it made waste optimization very important.

The scope of the analysis embraces nine types of industrial waste: low-grade ore piles, pyrite cinder dumps, tailings dumps, wet magneti c separation and flotation tailings ponds, phosphogypsum piles, red mud ponds, as well as dumps of metallurgical and electric power industries. The prospects of using the industrial waste as a source for production of rare metals, rare earths and other by-products are discussed. The practical interest lies only in the use of low-grade ore and pyrite cinder. Recovery of valuable components from the other types of industrial waste is incapable to solve the problem connected with the waste management but can only aggravate it. It is expedient to extract valuable components from waste of current processing, in amount to be sufficient to satisfy the related demand. To this effect, it is necessary to create new no-waste technologies. This is the way taken by Russia’s largest companies RUSAL and ROSTEC: reduction in cost of the main production releases finds for the implementation of environmental and nature-oriented activities.The problem connected with the use of many millions of tons of ecologically hazardous old waste is solved in a big way by means of reclamation, which is only possible in association with the government, through establishment of a public institution on industrial waste management.

The situation in the world of pandemics is rapidly changing, and the second wave of COVID-19 has put a lot of pressure on the government and private sector, which are primarily responsible for controlling the situation. COVID-19 positive cases have increased in recent months relative to last year, and the number of patients admitted to hospitals has also increased, despite the fact that few of them were denied admission due to shortage of beds. Normal people who experience any symptoms immediately isolate themselves and begin taking the COVID medications prescribed by medical personnel and their team. During these times, all domestic people tossed the wrappers and boxes of medicines into the regular trash can, and the waste was handed over to the waste collector, who treated it like any other domestic waste and disposed of it using open dumping or other methods. The goal of this perspective is to suggest the collections of these types of waste from domestics, and protect the natural resources like water, soil, and even living beings like animals from pollution (from the effect of SARS-CoV-2). The main challenge for environmental waste management agencies is determining who has COVID positive and which houses generate these types of waste; thus, proposed strategy may be beneficial to the long-term sustainability of natural resources and animals.

The study, entitled "The Effect of Community Relations conducted by the management of PT Ecco Indonesia toward Tenggulunan community’s Understanding on Industrial Waste Management" aims to determine the effect of community relations conducted by the management of PT Ecco Indonesia toward the Understanding of people living in the vicinity of the company on industrial waste generated. This quantitative study used a sample of 95 respondents. The research data were then analyzed using simple linear regression analysis. The results show that 1) the community relations was done well enough by the management of PT Ecco Indonesia (67.3%), 2) the public's understanding on industrial waste of PT Ecco Indonesia is also quite good (68.8%), 3) there is an effect of community relations of management of PT Ecco Indonesia toward the understanding of people living in Tenggulunan on industrial waste management, 4) the accepted hypothesis shows that that there is a significant relationship between community relations done by the management of PT Ecco Indonesia with public awareness about waste management industry amounted to 81,5%.

Waste management in Tunisia is currently one of the priorities of environmental protection and is one of the main pillars of sustainable development. Thus, Tunisia has opted for a comprehensive and progressive policy of environmental protection in order to manage with the current state of the object affected by the strong economic growth and the environment rapid urban expansion in recent years. The area of ​​waste management has received attention currently given the quantity produced changes in the multiplicity of forms and aspects of pollution caused by waste, and limited resources used in the field of solid waste management. During this, our research has been devoted to the study of the phenomenon of industrial waste management by recycling in Tunisia. We employ a model based on a time series analysis model for a period of 17 years from 2000 to 2016. Additionally, we estimate the ability to manage industrial waste recycling based on variables related to the business of recycling industrial waste, variables related to the intervention of Tunisia policy in the management of industrial waste recycling and macroeconomic indicators. From the empirical findings, we conclude that the macro-economic indicators have a negative impact on the dependent variable. The variables related to the intervention of Tunisia policy in industrial waste management through recycling have a positive impact and a negative impact depending on the nature of the waste. And finally, the variable relative to the activity of recycling industrial waste TRDI has a positive impact and DIG variable has a negative impact.
