 Garbage In, Garbage Out

Dealing with Garbage

Waste

Waste is any substance which is discarded after primary use, or it is worthless, defective and of no use.

Types of Waste
Basic classification of waste

Where Does Garbage Go

Waste Generation

  • Waste generation is the amount of waste produced by a house, a community or even the country.
  • Developed nations tend to produce more garbage than developing nations as they have higher rate of consumption.

    FACT
    Bangalore produces approximately 2480 tonnes of garbage a day, according to a 2001 study.

    Waste Segregation
  • Waste segregation means dividing waste into dry and wet.
  • Dry waste includes wood and related products, metals and glass.
  • Wet waste, typically refers to organic waste usually generated by eating establishments and are heavy in weight due to dampness.

Landfill
A landfill is a low lying area for the disposal of waste materials by burial.

Recycling

  • Recycling is the process of reusing of waste materials that are discarded.
  • Recycling reduces the wastage of products and pollution.

Paper

  • Paper is derived from trees.
  • Paper can be recycled and can be used as an alternative to plastics.
  • Recycling and reusing the paper saves the environment.


Plastics: Boon or Curse?

Biodegradable Waste

Biodegradable waste includes any organic matter in waste that can be broken down into
  • carbon dioxide,
  • water,
  • methane or
  • simple organic molecules
by micro-organisms like fungi and other living things using
  • composting,
  • aerobic digestion,
  • anaerobic digestion or similar processes.

Non-Biodegradable Waste

  • It is a type of waste that can not be broken down into its base compounds by micro-organisms, air, moisture or soil in a reasonable amount of time.
  • Non-biodegradable waste is an environmental concern, as it threatens to overwhelm landfills and create disposal problems.

Plastics

  • Plastic is a material consisting of a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic compounds that are malleable and can be moulded into solid objects.
  • Plastic can be recycled, reused, coloured, melted, rolled into sheets or made into wires.
  • That is why it finds such a variety of uses.
  • Plastic is non-biodegradable and poses major health hazards for animals including humans.
Plastic, hazardous boon?

    Composting and Vermicomposting

    Compost

    • Compost is an organic matter that has been decomposed an d recycled as a fertilizer and soil nutrient.

    Vermicomposting

    • Vermicompost (or vermi-compost) is the product of the composting process using various species of worms.
    • Red wigglers, White worms and other earthworms are used to create a mixture of decomposing vegetables or food waste, garden waste, farm waste etc
    • The product, vermicompost, is an excellent manure for gardens, nurseries, farms etc.

    TOWN PLANNING IN INDUS VALLEY ➡

      ⚫TOWN PLANNING IN INDUS VALLEY ➡ It was all about how they planned their cities. The cities were divided into two parts. One part smaller and the other part bigger. The smaller part was raised above the ground about 12 meters height and it had massive walls surrounding it. The walls protected it from floods. It seems like a proper fort, Na? The archaeologists also thought so. That’s why they named it Citadel. Most of the important people like the kings, the royal families, the priests, they all lived here. The other part was bigger in size and it had all the residential buildings and the public facilities. It was the place for the common people and it was situated below the Citadel. So we call it the lower town and not just that the cities was guarded so well that they have watch towers made of stone to keep a watch on enemies. So that the cities was not only protected from flood but also from any attacks. The Harappan cities had an awesome system of water supply. There was no discri

    ALL ABOUT PINHOLE CAMERA, NCERT NOTES, CLASS 6

      PINHOLE CAMERA The pinhole camera is based on the principle that light travels in a straight line. Construction of a Pinhole Camera- To construct a pinhole camera follow the steps described below - Take a small box like a shoebox. Paint the box entirely in black to light-proof it Appropriately determine the distance between the film of plastic or ground glass and light source and make a circular pinhole on the bottom of the box Make a shutter by cutting a piece of thick black chart paper. Use sturdy duct tape to hold the shutter in place Use a light adhesive to control the shutter flap and light entering the box Make a viewfinder out of cardboard. Pinhole Camera Image Characteristics- A real image is obtained as the image is obtained on the screen. The size of the image obtained is comparatively smaller than the actual object. The image is inverted on the x-axis as well as on the y-axis. The image can be used in the analysis of the rectilinear propagation of the light. Uses of a P

    What is mucilage, how does it emerge?

      What is mucilage, how does it emerge ? Mucilage or "sea snot" is the result of the overgrowth of microscopic algae called "Phytoplankton", which constitutes the first step of biological production in the sea. The thick, mucus-like slimy layer contains a variety of microorganisms.  Mucilage formation, which is a secretion released into seawater in response to changes and anomalies in sea conditions, requires a stagnant sea as well as a high amount of nitrogen and phosphorus contents.  Mucilage, which is a part of a natural process under normal conditions, can expand excessively when the weather gets warmer in the spring months and it finds the right temperature and light.  However, as in the case of the Sea of Marmara, experts say the structure of the sea, as well as intense pollution and waste, and global climate change, are the main reasons beyond such intense mucilage formation.
