Abstract
In HCMC, there are 958 factories in 12 industrial parks – export processing zones (IP-EPZ) (2006), 1,011 large factories, 6,202 small and medium factories out of IP-EPZ with 24 various industries. More than 700 factories operate in field of buying and recycling solid waste. Besides, there are 21 licenced and series of unregistered factories operating in field of collecting, transporting, treating, and burning industrial solid waste - hazardous waste (ISW-HW). There is the survey deployed in 24 districts (HCMC). The scope of that inquiry is 278 factories in IP-EPZ, 96 large factories, 1,142 small and medium factories out of IP-EPZ. The quantity of industrial solid waste is 1,044 tons per day with 12 percent of hazardous waste. After analysing the advantages and disadvantages of 05 methods used for predicting the quantity of ISW-HW, according to the ability of collecting data related in HCMC, the research has compared and chosen the best method. The results are: 1,641 tons per day (2010); 3,196 tons per day (2015); 7,318 tons per day (2020). With more and more ISW-HW, doing overall researches in order to establish the effective ISW-HW management measures in HCMC, minimize the negative impacts to environment and public health.
