EV-93-13 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the Degree of Master of Engineering Thesis (M.Eng.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 1993 A study of solid waste recycling and reuse in Bangkok was conducted from the point of generation, collection and to the disposal sites. Many of the components of the waste stream can be recycled - from paper and plastics to glass and metals. It is estimated that around 9.6% of the solid waste is recycled. Potentially the recycled proportion could be increased to 45 %. It was also reviewed the social, economic, environmental, institutional and legal opportunities and options regarding recycling and reuse in Thailand. As there is no law concerning recycling, suitable legislative measures should be introduced and enforced. There is no incentive for the consumer to separate solid waste at the source for recycling, as the price of recyclable in Bangkok are low and inconsistent. Waste recycling should be integrated with other solid waste management option to abate degradation of urban environment. This can be achieved through promotion of economically efficient and environmentally sound practices for managing municipal waste that take advantage of waste recycling and reuse. It is hoped that this study will contribute to the active promotion of solid waste recycling and reuse in Bangkok and other developing countries.
