Waste management

WASTE MANAGEMENT:
Hello, and welcome to another blog by ISTE. We hope you really have a good time reading. You can read why we write articles here.

 Methods of waste management:
After the industrial revolution waste management became an important and necessary function.
It is the control of materials that has become redundant and therefore need to be discarded. This process includes collection, transportation, sorting, recycling, clearance and disposal of waste materials. Waste management includes radioactive substances and other materials that are in a solid, liquid, or gaseous state, and their management techniques also differ from each other.
As waste management is concerned with the materials produced by the actions of humans and unless managed efficiently may have adverse effects on the environment and health of community.
Techniques of waste disposal:
Landfills:
These are being simple and economical and globally the most common system of disposal. It involves the burial of waste materials. They are not properly designed or managed and may create several environmental hazards, diseases due to dispersion of garbage by wind. These are normally developed on unused pits so that harmful effects can be avoided. Landfills do not pollute surface water or ground water
The waste accumulated in the landfill is reduced in size by compaction to permit maximum storage of waste. Some landfills include systems for the extraction of gas that is used for generation of electricity
Leakage from landfill waste can be minimised by solidification with cement or asphalt
Incineration:
After landfills, incineration is the most widely used method to eliminate all types of waste. Hazardous air contaminants are released by burning of waste, due to which there are serious public concerns regarding environment pollution. Combustion is generally not a complete incinerator due to which the gas emissions contain micro pollutants that are not safe for the area near the  incinerator.
For the countries where adequate space is not available for landfills, incineration is more practicable.
 Recycling:
Recycling is probably the most ideal way of managing wastage but it can be costly and difficult to implement. There are numerous products that can be recycled instead of throwing away including aluminium and steel cans, glass bottles, paper, and scrap metal. It is becoming popular  in the present day and successful marketing is making recycled materials more likely to purchased. In the long run, recycling can save money and resources as well as keep the environment clean.

Hi! ISTE SB welcomes you to the article. We really hope this proves to be advantageous to you, and we wish you a happy learning. Feel free to ask us something in the comments, and don't hesitate to start a discussion if you want to.  You can read  why we write articles here . What is the (surface) web? Ever felt the eerie feeling of a possibility of something is happening just where you are looking at on the web, but can never really understand what it is? Ever thought of how, in this modern world, can the illegal transactions be successful, with all the intelligence and surveillance? What is deep web? What is dark web? How is this done? Find all the answers here. Read the complete article. We guarantee you that you will feel no regret once you have finished. Let us start at a basic question, What is the difference between  Internet  and  web ? The Internet  is a simply a vast network of networks. It is a way of communication; and any 2 devices connect

Why do we blog?

You might have got this doubt already. In this age, where we can find any information anytime we need, what is the point of blogging about it? You might get the information when needed, sure. But how do you search for something you don't know? and we won't need knowledge at a specific time. Knowledge changes us, the way we talk and the way we think. We had strong reasons to start writing articles, so we have gathered the questions you might ask, and answered them. Q: Why articles again when they are already available on the same topic? A: Because:                       Some article somewhere on the internet cannot find it's way towards you. It cannot sell itself. But we can. and we are. If you are reading this article, it means that we have approached you. Q: Personal advantage to me if  I follow your articles? A: you wont need any other reference. Obviously we cannot tell you everything. But we can reach you, and if you are intrigued by our article, you will le

Reducing is evolving: Downsized Engine Combines Low Fuel Consumption and Power. Generally we tend to think an engine is evolving if its getting larger, but actually there is another approach. We call this downsizing. Downsizing is now a major trend in the industry. In recent years, car-makers have been adopting multiple strategies to make fuel consumption more efficient. And yet, in truth, just to make gas mileage better is a simple matter. All you have to do is cut the number of cylinders and the displacement in the engine. For example you could change a four cylinder engine to three cylinders and say 1.5-liter displacement to 1.2-liter. If there are less cylinders and cylinder capacity, the engine becomes lighter, which directly leads to lower fuel consumption. Also if we consider that the engine is a reciprocating machine, reducing the cylinders also then reduces the friction. Thus, the movement of the engine becomes more efficient and gas mileage is better. The technology
