Composting is an appropriate method for dealing with (a) commercial waste (c) organic waste (b) domestic waste (d) industrial waste
Answers
Answer:
Commercial waste:-Commercial waste consists of waste from premises used mainly for the general purposes of a business or trade or for the purpose of recreation, education, sport, or entertainment. It does not include household, agricultural, or industrial waste as the result of construction activities.
It usually consists of a mixture of heavy loads of timber, concrete, bricks, tile, rubble, metal, plastics, plasterboard, cardboard, and paper. This material is typically the result of work done through all stages of construction, site clean-ups, and domestic clean-ups. Commercial waste is non-hazardous.
Organic waste:-Organic wastes contain materials which originated from living organisms. There are many types of organic wastes and they can be found in municipal solid waste , industrial solid waste , agricultural waste, and wastewaters. Organic wastes are often disposed of with other wastes in landfills or incinerators, but since they are biodegradable , some organic wastes are suitable for composting and land application.
Organic materials found in municipal solid waste include food, paper, wood, sewage sludge , and yard waste . Because of recent shortages in landfill capacity, the number of municipal composting sites for yard wastes is increasing across the country, as is the number of citizens who compost yard wastes in their backyards. On a more limited basis, some mixed municipal waste composting is also taking place. In these systems, attempts to remove inorganic materials are made prior to composting.
domestic waste:-"Domestic waste" means any nonputrescible waste, consisting of combustible materials, such as paper, cardboard, yard clippings, wood, or similar materials, generated in a dwelling, including the real property upon which it is situated, containing four living units or less.
industrial waste:-Industrial wastes are classified as wastewater, solid wastes, or air discharges. There is some overlap of physical characteristics of the substances contained in each of these three classifications of wastes, since wastewater can contain dissolved gases and suspended and settleable solids, solid waste streams can include compressed gases, liquids, and certain solids, and air discharges can contain vaporized liquids, liquids in the aerosol state, and solid particles known as particulate emissions. The basis of the classification is the environmental medium to which the waste is discharged, and the characterization of the waste is normally based on the body of laws and regulations that govern that medium.
The composting is appropriate method for domestic waste. The vermin compost is used for domestic waste like vegetable and fruit waste.
Explanation:
The microbial decomposition occurs domestic waste composting. Else these garbage or domestic waste cause health hazards. Commercial waste, industrial waste can be degraded only by factories or machines. The organic waste can broke in to simple organic molecules based on degradation. Hence the domestic waste of edible items can be degraded by composting.
