Urban Solid Waste Characterization of the Misiones Metropolitan Area
Revista de Ciencia y Tecnología, 2022 This paper reports the behaviour of solid urban waste generation in the Metropolitan Area of Misiones, during a period of seven days. The waste analysed came from collection routes by household sampling points determined according to the land use and socioeconomic level of the population in the study area.
