COMPOSTABLE WASTES are biodegradable waste such as food wastes, garden wastes & animal wastes. They undergo biological degradation under controlled conditions and can be turned into compost (soil conditioner or organic fertilizer).Examples:
Fruit & vegetable peelingsFood leftoversVegetable & plant trimmings
![Page 9: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
RECYCLABLE WASTES Materials retrieved from waste stream and free from contamination & can still be converted into suitable beneficial use. These may be transformed into new products in such a manner that the original products may lose its identity.
Examples:Papers GlassPlastics Metals

CIVIC AMENITY SITEA CA site or household waste recycling centre (HWRC) is a facility where the public can dispose of household waste and also often containing recycling points. Collection points for recyclable waste such as green waste, metals, glass and other waste types are available. Items that cannot be collected by local waste collection schemes such as bulky waste are also provided.

TRANSFER STATIONis a building or processing site for the
temporary deposition of waste. Transfer stations are often used as places where local waste collection vehicles will deposit their waste cargo prior to loading into larger vehicles. These larger vehicles will transport the waste to the end point of disposal in an incinerator, landfill, or hazardous waste facility, or for recycling.

COMPOSTINGComposting, often described as nature’s
way of recycling, is the biological process of breaking up of organic waste such as food waste, manure, leaves, grass trimmings, paper, worms, and coffee grounds, etc., into an extremely useful humus-like substance by various micro-organisms including bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes in the presence of oxygen.
![Page 31: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
TYPES OF COMPOSTING / ACCORDING TO ITS NATURE
Aerobic CompostingAnaerobic CompostingVermicompostingTakakura Method
![Page 32: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
AEROBIC COMPOSTINGThis means to compost with air. High
nitrogen waste (like grass clippings or other green material) will grow bacteria that will create high temperatures (up to 160 degrees). Organic waste will break down quickly and is not prone to smell.
![Page 33: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

This type of composting is high maintenance, since it will need to be turned every couple days to keep air in the system and your temperatures up. It is also likely to require accurate moisture monitoring. This type of compost is good for large volumes of compost.
Aerobic Composting
![Page 35: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
ANAEROBIC COMPOSTING
This is composting without air. Anaerobic composting is low maintenance since you simply throw it in a pile and wait a couple years. If you just stack your debris in a pile it will generally compact to the point where there is no available air for beneficial organisms to live.
![Page 36: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
ANAEROBIC COMPOSTING
Instead you will get a very slow working bacteria growing that does not require air. Your compost may take years to break down (this is what happens when you throw your food waste in the garbage that goes to the landfill). Anaerobic composts create the awful smell most people associate with composting. The bacteria break down the organic materials into harmful compounds like ammonia and methane.
![Page 37: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
VERMICOMPOSTINGThis is most beneficial for composting
food waste. Along with red worms, this includes composting with bacteria, fungi, insects, and other bugs.
![Page 38: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
VERMICOMPOSTINGSome of these guests break down
the organic materials for the others to eat. Red worms eat the bacteria, fungi, and the food waste, and then deposit their castings. Oxygen and moisture are required to keep this compost healthy.
![Page 39: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

![Page 40: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
INCENERATION is a disposal method in which solid
organic wastes are subjected to combustion so as to convert them into residue and gaseous products. This method is useful for disposal of residue of both solid waste management and solid residue from waste water management. Incineration and other high temperature waste treatment systems are sometimes described as "thermal treatment". Incinerators convert waste materials into heat, gas, steam and ash.
![Page 41: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
LANDFILLis a site for the disposal of waste
materials by burial and is the oldest form of waste treatment. Historically, landfills have been the most common methods of organized waste disposal and remain so in many places around the world.
![Page 42: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Older, poorly designed or poorly managed landfills can create a number of adverse environmental impacts such as wind-blown litter, attraction of vermin, and generation of liquid leachate.

Another common byproduct of landfills is gas (mostly composed of methane and carbon dioxide), which is produced as organic waste breaks down anaerobically. This gas can create odor problems, kill surface vegetation, and is a greenhouse gas.

RECYCLING is processing used materials (waste)
into new products to prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air pollution (from incineration) and water pollution (from landfilling) by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal, and lower greenhouse gas emissions as compared to virgin production.

WINDROW COMPOSTING
In agriculture, windrow composting is the production of compost by piling organic matter or biodegradable waste, such as animal manure and crop residues, in long rows (windrows). This method is suited to producing large volumes of compost. These rows are generally turned to improve porosity and oxygen content, mix in or remove moisture, and redistribute cooler and hotter portions of the pile.
![Page 47: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Windrow composting is a commonly used farm scale composting method. Composting process control parameters include the initial ratios of carbon and nitrogen rich materials, the amount of bulking agent added to assure air porosity, the pile size, moisture content, and turning frequency.

BIODRYINGis the process by which
biodegradable waste is rapidly heated through initial stages of composting to remove moisture from a waste stream and hence reduce its overall weight.
![Page 50: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
GASPLASMAPlasma gasification is an
emerging technology which can process landfill waste to extract commodity recyclables and convert carbon-based materials into fuels. It can form an integral component in a system to achieve zero-waste and produce renewable fuels, whilst caring for the environment.
![Page 51: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
GASPLASMAPlasma arc processing has been
used for years to treat hazardous waste, such as incinerator ash and chemical weapons, and convert them into non-hazardous slag.

IN-VESSEL COMPOSTING
an industrial form of composting biodegradable waste that occurs in enclosed reactors. These generally consist of metal tanks or concrete bunkers in which air flow and temperature can be controlled, using the principles of a "bioreactor".
![Page 53: Ecological Solid Waste Management](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54407596b1af9fed7a8b48dd/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Generally the air circulation is metered in via buried tubes that allow fresh air to be injected under pressure, with the exhaust being extracted through a biofilter, with temperature and moisture conditions monitored using probes in the mass to allow maintenance of optimum aerobic decomposition conditions.

WASTE AUTOCLAVEis a form of solid waste treatment
that utilizes heat, steam and pressure of an industrial autoclave in the processing of waste. Waste autoclaves process waste either in batches or in continuous-flow processes.
