Based on Sagdeev pseudo-potential and phase-portrait, the dynamics of four-component dust plasma with non-extensively distributed electrons and ions are investigated. Three distinct types of nonlinear waves, namely, soliton, double layer, and super-soliton, have been found. The basic features of such waves are high sensitivity to Mach number, non-extensive parameter, and dust temperature ratio. It is found that the multi-component plasma is a necessary condition for super-soliton's existence, having a wider amplitude and a larger width than the regular soliton. Super-solitons may also exist when the Sagdeev pseudo-potential curves admit at least four extrema and two roots. In our multi-component plasma system, the super-solitons can be found by increasing the Mach number and the non-extensive parameter beyond those of double-layers. On the contrary, the super-soliton can be produced by decreasing the dust temperature ratio. The conditions of the onset of such nonlinear waves and its merging to regular solitons have been studied. This work shows that the obtained nonlinear waves are found to exist only in the super-sonic Mach number regime. The obtained results may be of wide relevance in the field of space plasma and may also be helpful to better understand the nonlinear fluctuations in the Auroral-zone of the Earth's magnetosphere.
