Solid waste ppt
 Solid or semi-solid material - which are non soluble in
nature.
 In Simple Words Solid wastes are any discarded
(abandoned or considered waste-like) materials. Solid
wastes can be solid, liquid, semi-solid or containerized
gaseous material.
.
What is Solid Waste?
Source of Waste
Households or Municipal Waste
includes food,
paper, cardboard,
plastic, textiles,
leather, glass,
metal, ashes,
electronics waste
etc.
Source of Waste
Business and Industrial Waste
includes toxic
chemicals, oil,
debris from
construction site,
packaging waste,
ashes etc.
Agriculture Waste
includes
pesticides, crops,
water coming from
the fields also
consists of small
amount of toxic
chemicals.
Biomedical Waste or Hospital Waste
medicine bottles,
expired medicines,
syringes, medical
instruments such
as scissors, blades
etc.
Nuclear Waste
includes
radioactive
substances
coming from
reactors, fuel
(uranium, thorium,
plutonium etc). Its
highly dangerous
and requires
proper disposal.
Hazardous Waste
includes toxic
chemical, acids,
corrosive, ignitable
and reactive
materials, gases
etc.
Hotel Waste
includes left over
food, empty
bottles, and
different kinds of
trash
Bio-degradable
can be degraded (food,
fruits and others)
Non-Biodegradable
cannot be degraded
(plastics, bottles, old
machines, cans,
containers and others)

Solid Waste
Management Hierarchy
These are the following methods for disposal of the
solid waste.
• LAND FILLS
• BIOLOGICAL REPROCESSING
• RECYCLING
• OCEAN DUMPING
Methods of Disposal
LAND FILL
 It is the most traditional method of waste
disposal.
 Waste is directly dumped into disused quarries,
mining voids or borrow pits.
 Disposed waste is compacted and covered with
soil to prevent vermin and wind-blown litter.
Methods of Disposal
OCEAN DUMPING
 Ocean dumping is the dumping or placing of
materials in the ocean, often on the continental
shelf.
 A wide range of materials is involved, including
garbage, construction and demolition debris,
sewage sludge, dredge material, waste
chemicals, and nuclear waste.
 Sometime hazardous and nuclear waste are also
disposed but these are highly dangerous for
aquatic life and human life also.
Methods of Disposal
BIOLOGICAL PROCESSING
 Materials such as plants, food scraps, and paper
products can be decomposed into the organic
matter.
 The organic matter that is produced from this type
of recycling can then be used for such things as
landscaping purpose or agricultural uses.
 Usually this method of recycling is done by putting
the materials in a container and let to stay there
until it decomposes.
Methods of Disposal
RECYCLING PROCESS
• COLLECTION: The first step required for recycling is
collecting recyclable materials from communities..
• SORTING: This includes sorting the materials into
groups, cleaning them and getting them ready to be
sold to manufacturers who will turn the materials into
new products.
• MANUFACTURING: The collected material is sent to
industries those convert them into new products
Methods of Disposal
RECYCLING PROCESS
• PURCHASING: When consumers purchase products
that have been made with post consumer material
the recycling process has been completed and then
can be repeated.
Material Recovery Facilities
Operations
Information Campaign
 Increase awareness..
 Increase attendance in coastal cleanup activities and
street cleaning
 Support more in tree growing activities.
 People should learned proper disposal of solid waste
and initiated to clean up their surroundings.
Solid waste ppt
 7.2 million tonnes of hazardous waste
 One Sq km of additional landfill area every-year
 Rs 1600 crore for treatment & disposal of these
wastes
 In addition to this industries discharge about 150
million tonnes of high volume low hazard waste
every year, which is mostly dumped on open low
lying land areas.

Editor's Notes

  1. Kondisyon sa isang pamayanan, malakai ang epektoo nito. Hal. Nakakaka sanhi ito ng baha. Nagkakaroon ng chain reaction .. Tulad ng baha, trapik na nakakaapekto sa pangkabukahayan ng mga tao. Yung mga dpat I deliver hindi agad na dedeliver dahil sa delay. :)
