How can we clean up our waste
Answers
Explanation:
1.) Ground Water Pumping and Treatment:
This method involves the extracting ground water with a vacuum pump, and then separating contaminants with techniques like carbon adsorption, biological treatment, and air stripping
2.) Waste Water Treatment:
This method removes contaminates from waste water with techniques such as physical separation, chemical treatment, and biological treatment.
3.) Bio-remediation:
This method is a natural bio-degradation of contaminants by micro-organisms, which can be enhanced through the addition of nutrients or cultivation.
4.) Incineration:
This method uses extremely high temperature to destroy organic compounds contained within hazardous waste.
5.) Thermal Desorption:
This method utilizes high temperatures to heat contaminated soil, vaporizing volatile and semi-volatile organics (like mercury or hydrocarbon), which are then either collected or treated with an afterburner.
6.) Removal and Disposal:
This method involves the physical removal of contaminated equipment, soil, water, sludge and/or tanks and transporting it to an approved hazardous waste disposal facility.
