Abstract


This study aims to analyse the factors affecting houshold solid waste generation in Tien Hai district, Thai Binh. The results of the study in 3 communes and 1 town showed a coefficient of solid waste generation from 0.5 to 0.8 kg/person/day. Factors affecting solid waste generation include income, education, age, occupation and houshold members. Houshold members factor shows highest impact on the generation of solid waste. When increasing 1 person, the houshold solid waste increases 1.44 kg/day. The income factor positively affects the amount of household waste generated, if the income increases by 1 unit, the amount of HSW increases by 0.51 kg/household/day. Educational factors have a negative effect on the amount of HSW generated. The higher educational houshold show less generation of solid waste. Age and occupation factors show no significant affect on household waste generation.
