Different Methods of Waste Management System

Waste management means managing, reusing, processing, or maintaining correctly without harming the surrounding. Most of the methods are entirely eco-friendly, and some are partially eco-friendly.

The young generation and the people of earth need to realize the necessity of waste management and its control. In this article, we explain some of the waste management solutions.

Methods of the waste management system

1) Landfills

2) Incineration

3) Recycling

4) Deep Well Injection

5) Chemical Water Treatment

6) Biology Water Treatment

7) Physical Water Treatment

8) Vermicomposting Method

1. Landfills

The landfilling method is one of the common ways of waste management. Landfilling could be the best choice in managing solid wastes. Most of the wastes managed using this method are biodegradable wastes. Monitoring the landfilled wastes is an important criterion in this method.

We expect frequent monitoring because there is a risk of polluting the nearby surrounding (land). We isolate the waste and tightly pack them beneath the upper layer of the land. We could reuse the landfilled area for other purposes.

2. Incineration

Incineration or Thermal treatment is a method of managing solid wastes. We convert the solid wastes into ashes using heat. We subject the wastes to high temperatures while managing the wastes.

This method is partially eco-friendly, and it is not an efficient method since burning wastes also pollutes the environment.

3. Recycling

Recycling is one of the most important methods in the waste management system. Recycling reduces the accumulation of unwanted substances and reduces the collection of waste.

For Example: Buying rechargeable batteries, Buying reusable razors, Saying no to plastic.

4. Deep Well Injection

Deep Well Injection is a liquid waste disposal method. We use a huge hole and packs all the liquid wastes below the groundwater table. Monitoring the waste dumbed place is mandatory to check leakage that contaminates the groundwater table.

5. Chemical Water Treatment

We use Chemical Water Treatment in processing industrial wastes. The most commonly used chemical is Chlorine. The method of chlorinating for managing wastes is known as Chlorination. Chlorine is an oxidizing agent, and it kills bacteria and other contaminants.

6. Biological Water Treatment

We use this method to treat drinking water. It could be either done aerobically or anaerobically. In the aerobic process, we use oxygen to degrade bacteria. In the anaerobic process, we don't use oxygen to degrade bacteria and other contaminants. The anaerobic process follows the method of fermentation.

7. Physical Water Treatment

Physical Water Treatment follows the process of sedimentation in waste management. We use Physical Water Treatment to remove insoluble impurities from the wastewater.

We can also use the method of filtration in the physical wastewater management system. In the filtration method, we filter the impurities and contaminants using general filtration methods.

8. Vermicomposting

Vermicomposting is a process by which we can convert organic wastes into humus-like substances, which we call Vermicompost. We carry this process with the help of Earthworms.

The method is completely eco-friendly. Vermicompost increases soil aeration. Vermicompost enriches the soil with beneficial microorganisms. It also improves the water-holding capacity of the soil. It is completely eco-friendly.
