To reduce the volume of domestic solid waste at the local city level, several technologies and approaches can be employed:
1-Waste-to-Energy (WTE) Plants: These convert non-recyclable waste materials into usable forms of energy such as heat, electricity, or fuel. It reduces waste volume while generating power.
2-Biogas Plants: Organic waste can be processed in anaerobic digesters to produce biogas (methane) and compost. This reduces organic waste and provides a renewable energy source.
Dear Piyus Kumar Pathak
One of the possible technologies for reducing the volume of municipal solid waste at the local city level is a separate waste collection and recycling system using smart technologies and information platforms. The main elements of this technology are:
1. Separate waste collection
Creation of several containers for different types of waste: organic, plastic, glass, metal and paper. This allows citizens to easily sort their waste.
2. Smart containers
Integration of sensors in containers to monitor the filling level. This makes it possible to optimize waste collection schedules, reduce the frequency and volume of transport and therefore CO₂ emissions.
3. Education and information
Educational programs for residents on the importance of separate collection and recycling. This may include workshops, posting informational materials and using mobile apps to track waste recycling progress.
4. Partnerships with businesses
Work with local businesses to create take-back programs for packaging or use of recycled materials that will help reduce waste.
5. Using digital technologies
Creating a mobile app for residents to track how and where waste is disposed of and receive waste reduction tips.
Benefits:
- Reduced volume of municipal solid waste.
- Increased awareness among residents of the importance of sustainable waste management.
- Stimulates a circular economy.
The Appropriate technology of reduce the volume of solid waste is treated anaerobic and aerobic treatment, if the solid wastes is biodegradable.
The treatment of solid wastes is not biodegradable so only verification is process to reduce volume of solid waste.
