Introduction:

Waste management is defined as the process and activities that is used to manage waste in the whole process of generating the waste to the final disposal (Kiddee, Naidu and Wong 2013). E-waste is one of the common wastes that is generated in the modern world which is actually formed as a result of the excessive use of electronic gadgets as well as the discarded electronic devices. E-waste is also considered when the discarded electronic gods are given for resale and reuse of the materials (Hoornweg and Bhada-Tata 2012). The following report is an analysis on the waste management issue and also considers the stakeholders along with the proposed methodology for the same. The following paragraphs highlight on the data collection methods as well as the validating the objectives with the risk factors associated.

The waste management situation in Australia is of medium to low nature as in most of the places, the condition of waste management along with the rate of reuse of recycling of the products is very low. According to Yang (2017), most of the wastes are just left at the landfills which creates soil and environmental pollution at a massive scale. In addition, the continuous disposal of E-waste into the places also creates massive pollution of water which is one of the pivotal cases. Therefore, the scope of waste management is not very bright which needs to be made better with efforts.

A stakeholder is defined as a person who has interest or is responsible for a particular matter. The stakeholder in waste management practises are the municipality as well as the residents of each of the city. Moreover, the companies who are producing the wastes are also responsible for the waste management which is one of the most important means.

There are a number of ways in which the waste management disposal can be conducted which are as follows –

• Landfills – The filling of the waste especially the E-waste into the landfills is one of the primary methods of disposing waste management. This process involves the burying the waste into the land which is one of the easiest and most cost effective methods. However, due to the lack of space and increase in the pollution, the method is on a cease.
• Combustion – The combustion of solid waste into gaseous and reduced methods is one of the most used methods that can reduce the waste upto 30% (Blackman Jr 2016). The combustion though popular is less used due to the high level of pollution that is being created in the method.
• Recycling – One of the most effective ways of conducting waste management process is to recycle the waste that is there in the country.This is one of the best methods to make sure that the waste is managed without any remains or pollution in the matter.
• Plasma Gasification – Plasma gasification is defined as the process in which a high temperature ionized gas or electrically charged gas is done with the help of the waste disposal technique which produces a temperature of 12600 degree Farhenheit which make sure that the solid is disposed with great effect and also with the help of it, the molecular bonds are broken producing renewable source of energy.

The data that needs to be collected for the better working and conducting the waste management process is done with the help of the municipality government and also to make sure that the data for the E-waste management is done from the NGOs and government waste management centres (Inglezakis and Moustakas 2015). The local places can get all the dustbin bins which can be collected by the researchers for the better analysis of the different forms of waste.

The timeframe needed for the conduction of the research is approximately 6 months from the day of starting of the programme.

2. Scope of the Waste management issue including stakeholders

Though Australia in an average produces about 1.5 tonnes of waste per person, it has been estimated that some of the places produces more waste materials than others.

Types of waste materials	Location	Rating of the severity
Plastics and non-biodegradable waste	Cities, towns and congested areas	Severe as the amount of plastic disposed is severe and is increasing on a day to day basis
Household waste	From all over the continent	Medium to high as an amount of the waste is biodegradable which makes the waste not so severe. The non-bio degradable part is then not acceptable.
Industrial waste	Industrial towns and cities	Severe as this causes a number of pollution level and also makes sure that these wastes leads to the generation of a number of other waste materials (Greenberg 2017).
Radioactive waste	From atomic plants and radioactive plants	Severe as most of the wastes are toxic in nature that can harm the whole environment

The process of validating data is done after doing an input in the methods and also after checking the integrity as well as the validity of the data. According to Inglezakis and Moustakas (2015), the waste management data is collected via various government websites and NGOs which make sure that the data obtained is of genuine value. The process of validating data involves collection of data and also the research is being done after assessing the number of records, the ids and the size of the data. In addition, the source of the data is also looked at and at the end the mapping of the research is done (Greenberg 2017). In case of the waste management technique of Australia, the waste management technique is created with the data from both the government website as well as the NGOs and individual research is created which is then advised to be integrated for the better results in the concerned manner.

The waste management data is collected by individual research and then analysed to make sure that the data is validated with the concerned waste (Brunner and Rechberger 2015). The process of validating the data is then used for the analysis of the given waste management statistics in Australia.

The decision making of the waste management can be assessed by using the tools like the life cycle assessment as well as the health risk assessment of the task. According to Zaman (2014) the life cycle assessment is used to find out the impact of the different stages of the product right from raw materials to the finished product through the various stages of the product in the required span of time. The health risk assessment of the work is defined as the way in which the individuals are provided the role of evaluation in the health risk due to certain aspects as well as the quality of life in the concerned matter.

3. Proposed methodology to conduct waste management

Both the life cycle assessment as well as the health risk assessment of the work is useful for making sure that the effects of the risk management is measured. Both the assessment measures will be helpful for making sure that the waste management methods are used in the required case (Glendon, Clarke and McKenna 2016). Summarising both the assessment, it can be said that that both the life cycle measure as well as the health risk measure is useful for making sure that the waste management method is implied in the zone of Australia.

Waste management is one of the most important measures in the modern world due to the immense risk that is there if the waste is not properly maintained and also if the waste is not properly disposed in the required span of time. According to Glendon, Clarke and McKenna (2016), the priority for the disposal of waste management is involved due to the involvement of a number of options like health hazards, polluting the environment as well as the risk of making sure that that the waste is being properly managed to have a detailed analysis of the risk that is being associated with the same. The risk for the waste management concept is of high value as the risk factor for this matter is also quite high.

The communication strategy is defined as the documentation that is being created for expressing the goals as well as the various methods for outreaching the activities of the organization. The communication strategy of waste management technique is delivered from the government to the people as well as the people who are involved in the waste management of the organization. The communication strategy of the identified stakeholder is through the media communication and also through the mode of advertisement that is being measured (Wilson et al. 2012). The communication is to be made through various strategies as well as the media ways that is needed in the communication plan. The identified stakeholder of the waste management issue is the common people as well as the government who should have effective communication plan to make sure that their waste management technique is being followed.

The media has tremendous influence on the stakeholders who are associated with the risk management of the Australian premise especially the E-waste management technique in the concerned span of time. The media influences the stakeholders in their working and also makes sure that people involved in the waste management disposal is given adequate due. All the aspect of media including digital and print media is involved in making sure that the stakeholders have ample knowledge and responsibility for the waste matter management (Chandrappa and Das 2012). In Australia, the stakeholders are informed through the concepts of print and digital media that the risk factor for waste management is there which again makes sure that the risk factor associated with the same are also analysed. The media has some of the greatest influences on the people and so a promotional event or even an advertisement can help to make sure that the risk affected with waste is generated and addressed.

4. Data Collection Equipment and Time Frame

The effect on media is one of the most important aspects in the stakeholder management sector while for the ultimate risk management approach in terms of the waste management technique, the effect of the risk management sector is also analysed within the concerned span of time (Chandrappa and Das 2012). The ultimate risk management approach is to analyse the physical, environmental as well as health risk that is associated with the waste management technique.

In Australia, the effect of media on the health of management in the sector is of prime importance as with the required span it becomes way important for the people as well as the authorities to have substantiate amount of reflection (Zhang, Schnoor, and Zeng 2012). The influence of social media in this case is also important as with the advent of social media in the said case, it is of prime importance to have the level in the importance of waste management technique.

In the above, the review and the monitoring of the risk assessment of the task is being done which is one of the major instances of the waste management is being done which is a part of the risk management associated (White, Dranke and Hindle 2012). The monitoring and the review of the whole concept of the task is according to the risk management of the Australian waste management technique.

Conclusion:

At the end of the report, it is to be analysed that the risk management in terms of the waste management technique is to be assessed in the country of Australia and also the E-waste management is also conducted to make sure that each of the waste management plan is there for the confirmed span of time. The different aspects of the E-waste along with the waste management technique is being followed which makes sure that the risk of the waste management process is being done. The report is an analysis of the various strategies and methods that is needed for the analysis of the waste management in the concerned span of time. At the end, it can be stated that the waste management of Australia is analysed on the basis of the various strategies and methods of the same is to be followed.
