WASTE MANAGEMENT


Types of recycling:

        Recycling Programme generally involves drop-off silts or curbside pickup. Some cites & towns use drop-off sites, where residents can deposit their recyclables on the way to work or to the grocery store. Drop-off centers can be successful only if containers are conveniently placed as for example at train station or near parks.
          Curbside recycling, in which recyclables are periodically picked up trash pullers at the curb, is by far the most successful type of recycling Programme.
           It is also possible to collect raw trash & ship it to resource recovery centers, where it is separated by machines or people. This tech. also known as end-point-separation. It is more costly than source separation.
