Write five deficiencies in waste management.
Answers
Answer:
Conventional waste management focuses largely on waste collection, treatment
(composting and incineration) and disposal (landfills). Only limited attempts are made to
adopt integrated waste management practices that involve waste reduction at the source,
resource recovery and recycling. The resource value of waste cannot be realized unless
separation of wastes is practised effectively at the source.
Meanwhile, in many cities in developing countries, collection rates remain low and the
quality of collection services are poor. Waste collection services are generally non-existent
in poorer neighbourhoods such as slums. While there are some successful examples where
the private sector and communities are involved in waste management services, in many
cities of developing countries, involvement of these segments of society is still very
limited. The wastes collected typically end up in open dumps, where they may be burnt and in some cases are deposited in illegal dumping sites.
