This is particularly with respect to the haphazard management of health care wastes being linked partly with the spread of the dreaded Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). To provide the baseline data for coming up with sound management practices, a study was carried out to characterize and quantify the health-care solid wastes being generated in Ibadan, Nigeria. An examination of the strategies being used to manage health-care wastes was also carried out. A survey of four categories of fifty-two health care facilities spread across the eleven Local Government areas of Ibadan city was conducted. The facilities were categorized into Tertiary, Secondary, Primary and Diagnostic health care facilities based on size and function. The wastes generated in each facility were collected and measured for seven consecutive days, carefully sorted at the sources of generation in each facility. The secondary health-care facilities generate the peak amount of solid health-care waste, (being 10238 kg/d on the average per facility) followed by tertiary, primary and diagnostic health-care facilities in that order. The management practices in most facilities in the city are generally deplorable. Our assessment of the landfill sites show that they have been tuned into mere open dumps, with groundwater pollution being an apparent possibility. The study concluded with recommendations ranging from daily monitoring of generated wastes to its environmental-friendly disposal, in order to guarantee safe management of health-care wastes in the city.

Samples were collected at surface level from the discharge point into the Creek and subsequently at 500 metres and 1000 metres down stream. The samples taken from these points were analysed for physico-chemical parameters such as pH, TDS, TSS, COD, Oil and Grease, Temperature, Cations (Pb 2+ , Fe (total), Cu 2+ , Cr 6+ , Ca 2+ , and Mg 2+ ) and Anions (PO , NO , SO and Cl - ) . The results showed that Oil and Grease, COD, Cations (Pb 2+ , Fe (total)) and temperature were dilution sensitive, and are stated as follows: oil and grease, 24 to 7mg/l; Iron (Fe (total)), 1.0 to 0.16 mg/l; lead (Pb 2+ ), 0.035 to 0.006 mg/l; COD, 7 to 1mg/l and temperature, 24.1 to 22.0oC. Parameters such as TDS, TSS, Cu 2+ , Ca 2+ , Mg,sup>2+ , SO and Cl - are dilution non-sensitive, mainly due to the existence of residual impurities (pollution load) created by existing rocks and salts in the creek water body. The magnitude of these impurities increases along the creek even beyond 1000m from the discharged point.

The effect of bio-stimulation with inorganic fertilizers (NPK 15:15;15 and Urea) was also examined. Biodegradation was monitored over 28-day period using changes in total organic carbon (TOC) and carbon dioxide evolution. Positive control consisted of filter paper plus test soil (rain forest soil or mangrove soil). Negative control consisted of recharge card and sterile soil. There was a rapid increase in total heterotrophic bacterial (THB) and fungal (TF) counts from a magnitude of 10 4 to10 7 cfu/g for bacteria ad 10 3 to 10 4 cfu/g for fungi from day 0 to day 28 in the biodegradation test systems in rain forest and mangrove soils. There was no significant difference (p 2 evolution was independent of recharge card, soil type and fertilizer application. It was concluded that GSM recharge cards are readily degraded in both rainforest ad mangrove soils of the Niger Delta, even without bio-stimulation especially when they are first physically broken up. The recharge card type did not influence the rate of biodegradation.
