The document discusses solid waste management, highlighting the often overlooked importance of waste disposal in business and manufacturing. It categorizes waste types and outlines various disposal methods including dumping, controlled tipping, incineration, composting, manure pits, and burial, emphasizing the need for practices like reducing, reusing, and recycling. Additionally, it provides examples of waste and emphasizes the benefits of proper waste management techniques.

1. SOLID WASTE
MANAGEMENT IN THE EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE WORLD OF
BUSINESS AND MANUFACTURING SOLID WASTE
DISPOSAL IS OFTEN OVERLOOKED.IN MANY
COMPANIES,FEW STAKEHOLDERS ARE AWARE OF
THIS DESTINATION OF THE GENERATED
WASTELAND ASSOCIATED COSTS WITH EXCESS
RAW MATERIALS,SCRAP PARTS,POOR USE OF
RESOURCES,AND OUTDATED MATERIALS.

2. LIQUID WASTE
3. BIODEGRADABLE WASTE
4. CHEMICAL WASTE
5. BIOMEDICAL WASTE
IT IS DEFINED AS:

3. SOLID WASTE
“NON LIQUID,NON-SOLUBLE MATERIALS
RANGING FROM MUNICIPAL GARBAGE TO
INDUSTRIAL WASTE THAT CONTAIN COMPLEX
AND SOMETIMES HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES”

REDUCE:
• DISPOSAL GOODS:
• PAPER PLATE
• PAPER BOWL
• PAPER NAPKIN
• ROLL OR PAPER TOWELS
• DURABLE GOODS
• RECOVERY OF ONE TONNE PAPER CAN SAVE
17 TREES
THE 3R’S
• REDUCE
• REUSE
• RECYCLE

6. REUSE RECYCLE
• INSTEAD OF BUYING NEW
CONTAINERS FROM THE MARKET,USE
THE ONES THAT ARE I THE HOUSE
•
• DONT THROUGH AWAY THE SOFT
DRINK CAN OR BOTTLE COVER THEM
WITH HOME MADE PAPER OR PAINT
ON THEM AND USE THEM AS PENCIL
STANDS OR SMALL VASES
• USE SHOPPING BAGS MADE OF
CLOTHE OR JUTEWHICH CAN BE USED
OVER AND OVER

7. METHOD OF
DISPOSAL
1. DUMPING
• LOW LYING AREAS
• MAINLY FOR DRY REFUSES
• WE USE THIS METHOD FOR LAND TO RECLAIM
THE CULTIVATION
• UNSANITARY METHOD
1. EXPOSED TO FLIES AND RODENTS
2. NUISANCE
3. DISPERSED BYWIND
4. POLLUTION OF SURFACE WATER
1. DUMPING
2. CONTROLLED TIPPING
3. INCINERATION
4. COMPOSTING
5. MANURE PITS
6. BURIAL

8. CONTROLLED
TIPPING
• SATISFACTORY METHOD
1. MATERIAL PLACED IN TRENCH
2. COMPACTED WITH EARTH AT THE END OF
THE WORKING DAY
• MODIFIED SANITARY LAND FILL WHERE
COMPACTION AND COVERING ARE
ACCOMPLISHED ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK

9. INCINERATION
• IT IS A DISPOSAL METHOD IN WHICH SOLID
ORGANIC WASTES ARE SUBJECTED TO
COMBUSTION SO AS TO CONVERT THEM INTO
RESIDUE AND GASEOUS PRODUCTS.
• THIS PROCESS REDUCES THE VOLUMES OF
SOLID WASTE TO 20-30%OF THE ORIGINAL
VOLUME
• IT IS ALSO KNOWN AS THERMAL TREATMENT
• WHERE LAND IS NOT AVAILABLE
• HOSPITAL WASTE

10. COMPOSTING
• METHOD OF COMBINED DISPOSAL OF REUSE
AND NIGHT SOIL/SLUDGE
• PRINCIPAL BY PRODUCTS ARE:
1. CO2
2. WATER
3. HEAT
• END PRODUCT:. COMPOST

11. MANURE PITS
• MOSTLY USED IN RURAL AREAS
• DIGGING”MANURE PITS”IS TO PREVENT THE
REFUSES THROWN AROUND THE HOUSES
• THE GARBAGE,CATTLE DUNG,STRAW,AND
LEAVES SHOULD BE DUMPED INTO THE
MANURE PITS AND COVERED WITH THE EARTH
• TWO PITS WILL BE NEEDED
• IN 5-6 MONTHS TIME THE REFUSES IS
CONVERTED INTO MANURE WHICH CANE BE
RETURNED TO THE FIELD

12. BURIAL
• SUITABLE FOR SMALL CAMP
• A TRENCH 1.5M WIDE 2M DEEP IS EXCAVATED
• THE REFUSES IS COVERED WITH 20-30CM OF
EARTH
• WHEN THE LEVEL IN THE TRENCH IS 40CM
FROM GROUND LEVEL,THE TRENCH IS FILLED
WITH EARTH COMPACTED
• 4-6 MONTHS
