(Bassis Luke). Proper garbage disposal is important to ensure everyone’s safety from possible health hazards. The improper waste disposal of garbage is a major sociological problem today due to its capability of contaminating the area in which we live and it’s potential to be lethal to all living things. Its effects increase the risk of adverse health effects in humans and animals‚ causes damage to eco-systems and accelerate the destruction of our environment.

process of recovering waste paper and remaking it into new paper products. There are three categories of paper that can be used as feedstocks for making recycled paper: mill broke‚ pre-consumer waste‚ and post-consumer waste.[1] Mill broke is paper trimmings and other paper scrap from the manufacture of paper‚ and is recycled internally in a paper mill. Pre-consumer waste is material which left the paper mill but was discarded before it was ready for consumer use. Post-consumer waste is material discarded

Electronic waste Electronic waste‚ e-waste‚ e-scrap‚ or Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) describes loosely discarded‚ surplus‚ obsolete‚ or broken electrical or electronic devices. Informal processing of electronic waste in developing countries causes serious health and pollution problems. Some electronic scrap components‚ such as CRTs‚ contain contaminants such as lead‚ cadmium‚ beryllium‚ mercury‚ and brominated flame retardants. Even in developed countries recycling and disposal of

Abstract: This study was designed using actual effluent from the sugary mills in an Up-flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) Reactor to evaluate treatability performance. The reactor was started-up in step-wise loading rates beginning from 0.05kg carbon oxygen demand (COD)/m3-day to 3.50kg-COD/m3-day. The hydraulic retention time

Non-biodegradable waste will NOT break down (or won’t for many many years). Examples are plastics‚ metal and glass. Some dangerous chemicals and toxins are also non-biodegradable‚ as are plastic grocery bags‚ Styrofoam (polystyrene)‚ and other similar materials but will eventually break down over time.

LOW INSTALLATION COST AND HIGHER EFICIENCY Technology Pyrolysis involves heating waste tyres /plastic without oxygen to break them down to char or carbon black‚ oil‚ and gas. Plants operate within a temperature range of 250° - 500°C.At temperatures above approximately 150°C tires release increasing amounts of liquid oil products and gases. Above 400°C‚ depending on the process employed‚ the yield of oil and solid tire-derived char may decrease relative to gas production. A typical commercial
