Solid waste volume reduction
Solid waste volume reduction can take place at several points in the waste management process. Solid waste volume reduction can take the form of precycling or reusebehavior on the part of consumers. This behavior reduces solid waste at the source and prevents materials from ever entering the waste stream . Precycling on the part of consumers is the best initial activity to reduce the volume of solid waste. Reuse is also a measure that prevents or delays the migration of materials to the landfill . Once the decision is made that a product is no longer useful and needs to be discarded, there are several management techniques that can be used.
Recycling diverts large volumes of materials from the waste stream to a manufacturing process. Glass, plastic, paper, cardboard, and other clean, source-separated materials are well-suited for use in the manufacture of new products. As markets become more readily available, the volume of materials that end up in landfills will be reduced even more. Such troublesome wastes as tires, appliances and construction debris are targets of serious recycling efforts because they are large-volume items, take up a lot of space in landfills, and do not provide good fuel for waste-to-energy facilities in their discarded state. Once recyclables have been separated from the waste stream, solid waste can be further reduced in volume through several methods.
