CONTROL OF SOIL POLLUTION

• Management of soil wastes include

collection and categorization of wastes.
Recovery of resources like scrap metals,
plastics, etc., for recycling and reuse and
safe disposal with a minimum
environmental hazards is to be followed.
• Other notable methods of waste disposal
include incineration (burning in the
presence of oxygen) and pyrolysis
(burning in the absence of oxygen).
• Afforestation and reforestation should be
undertaken on a large scale to prevent
soil erosion and loss of soil nutrients.
