methods of disposal of waste

 

BEST WAYS TO DISPOSE WASTE

Waste must be disposed to some place for the safety of our community, collecting the waste products in one place and leave them there to rot after a while the society may start being attack of disease like cholera, typhoid and so on

The municipal council of specified area are also responsible to take good care of the big damps site and make sure that they limit the spread of dirty and rubbish to our society, however in the damping sites there are also those material that have been damped by the people in which some industries recycle them so that they can be used again in the society for example bottles of water can be recycle and make new bottles, car tires, wire, irons and so on

BURYING

Some form of waste can be buried in the ground, and then left there to rot this is one form of disposing waste product safety but burying can take different steps which may include the following.

PIT LATRINE

This is the pit which is made by digging a hole in the ground, a wooden or concrete platform with a hole over the pit is built so that people can use the latrine safely, the sewage in the pit is decayed by bacteria, when the pit is full it is covered with soil and anew latrine is dug

once the pit is covered there will be no bad smell around the area or the flies that could take the germs and spread them to our home, but also once the pit is covered some people wouldn't even know if there that area there was a pit to damp garbage. 

TIPPING AND LANDFILLS

In the urban areas and local authorities follow a waste disposal system whereby each household has a dustbin for waste, trucks regularly collect this waste and then take it in the dumping site this is called tipping, dumping site can be in the form of a dump or a landfill, a landfill is place where solid waste is buried in the ground

INCINERATING

To incinerate is burn something until is completely destroyed, this process is carried out in an incinerator, incineration is usually done for hazardous material such as clinical wastes it is very important to wear an overall, gloves, mouth mask and gumboots so that to avoid contamination and hazardous fumes, but most of wastes with a high calorific value and low level of pollutant contamination can be used in industrial plants.




RECYCLING

To recycle is to turn waste material into useful products that can be used again, plastic, glass, paper, metal and rubber items can be recycled or Recycling can also be explained as both the direct reuse of used products for example waste paper is used to make tissue paper or newsprint paper, worn out car tyres can be retreaded and re used, old glass bottle can be melted and made a new bottle


 Final thoughts

 keeping our environment clean and secure is very important to our society and it is our responsibility, it help us escape the communicable and non-communicable diseases such flu, coughing, cholera, typhoid, malaria and so on, industries look for the raw materials to make new products, if you have them near you home then communicate with the responsible member of the industry so that they can send them to their industry and recycle them.
