Most large cities have waste crises, and the majority of municipal solid waste (MSW) comes from residents rather than businesses. The introduction of a unit-pricing policy in Taipei decreased residential solid waste (RSW) by 33% and almost doubled the recycling in the first two years. Most communities including Taipei use a mixed RSW policy. This work evaluates RSW policies. It differs from previous studies because of the following reasons. Firstly, the disposal option of waste storing or composting is considered in the household behavior model. Secondly, the waste collection characteristics and their effects on enforcing pricing and recycling policies are evaluated by empirical data. Thirdly, the prosecution and inspection efforts to illegal dumping are also evaluated. This book comprises a comprehensive literature review on MSW policies, a revised household waste disposal model, two empirical studies on policies in the cities of Taiwan and Japan, and policy simulations for unit-pricing and enforcement policies. This is an excellent reference for readers who are interested in the household waste disposal behavior and try to design a comprehensive RSW management policy.
