COMPOSTING

Composting is the natural process of recycling organic matter, such as leaves and food scraps, into a
valuable fertilizer that can enrich soil and plants

 RECYCLING
Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new materials and objects.
The recovery of energy from waste materials is often included in this concept. The
recyclability of a material depends on its ability to reacquire the properties it had in its
original state.[1] It is an alternative to "conventional" waste disposal that can save
material and help lower greenhouse gas emissions. It can also prevent the waste of
potentially useful materials and reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials,
reducing energy use, air pollution (from incineration) and water pollution
(from landfilling).

 REDUCTION AND REUSE

Reduce the amount of materials and goods you consume. This might mean limiting the amount of
purchases you make in the first place. Do you really need another bottle of nail polish, or another pair of
black shoes? To determine your true needs and avoid impulse buys, try the three day rule: if you want to
buy something non-essential, wait three days. If you're still thinking about it three days later, then you
can buy it. More than likely, you will have forgotten about it.

Reuse
Reusing is the act of taking old items that you might consider throwing away and finding a new
use for them.

Get the most mileage out of the materials you encounter. Jars from grocery store foods can be
used to store leftovers or to take lunch to work. Use old clothing as cleaning rags.

Sometimes materials can be reused by other people. Working computers and parts can often be
donated to community centers or charitable organizations. Clothing can often be donated and
given a second life.

Feeding the animals directly is a simple and easy method. People can donate their kitchen and
plate leftover to farmers, who will, in turn, use it to feed the animals. Those who keep animals
can use part of the food to feed them. Swine do well in this, as they are omnivorous animals
who would eat anything.

However, many experts are of the opinion that feeding animals directly may lead to health
issues. This can easily be handled by ensuring the process of getting the food to the animals is
controlled. The United States Environmental Protection Agency encourages anyone who wants
to take part in recycling food waste for animal feed to contact their local solid waste, public
health agency, or county agricultural extension agency for information. You’ll also have to
determine what types of food you want to provide and how often you’re going to provide it.

Food waste might be a serious problem for the modern world, but with determination, we can
overcome it. What is needed is proper education and commitment by every member of the
community to be responsible and take action.

 FERMENTATION
The fermentation process allows conversion of waste materials
containing lipids, proteins and carbohydrates. Organic
substrates serve both as electron donors and acceptors. The
principal fermentation products are volatile fatty acids such as
acetic, propionic and butyric acid, and alcohols such as ethanol and
butanol.

 LANDFILLS
landfill site, also known as a tip, dump, rubbish dump, garbage dump, or dumping
ground, is a site for the disposal of waste materials. Landfill is the oldest and most
common form of waste disposal, although the systematic burial of the waste with daily,
intermediate and final covers only began in the 1940s. In the past, refuse was simply
left in piles or thrown into pits; in archeology this is known as a midden.
Some landfill sites are used for waste management purposes, such as temporary
storage, consolidation and transfer, or for various stages of processing waste material,
such as sorting, treatment, or recycling. Unless they are stabilized, landfills may
undergo severe shaking or soil liquefaction of the ground during an earthquake. Once
full, the area over a landfill site may be reclaimed for other uses.

 INCINERATION
Incineration is a waste treatment process that involves the combustion of
substances contained in waste materials.[1] Industrial plants for waste
incineration are commonly referred to as waste-to-energy facilities.
Incineration and other high-temperature waste treatment systems are
described as "thermal treatment". Incineration of waste materials converts
the waste into ash, flue gas and heat. The ash is mostly formed by
the inorganic constituents of the waste and may take the form of solid lumps
or particulates carried by the flue gas. The flue gases must be cleaned of
gaseous and particulate pollutants before they are dispersed into
the atmosphere. In some cases, the heat that is generated by incineration
can be used to generate electric power.

 LAND APPLICATION
Land application is the management of organic wastes
where the material is applied directly to agricultural fields as
a source of nutrients and/or to improve soil quality, reducing
the need for commercial fertilizers. methods include direct
application to the soil surface or injection to the upper layer
of the soil.
