There are many kinds of waste, and many ways of disposing of waste. Most communities have sewage treatment plants, which treat sewage waste. Improvements in how this is done are coming rapidly.
Industrial waste might or might not be biodegradable. For example inorganic chemicals are not normally biodegradable. On the other hand, leather scraps and wood chips are. Some non-biodegradable waste is put into landfills, and some is recycled for reuse. Biodegradable industrial waste may be digested in special reaction vessels. Farm wastes may be similarly treated.
Hazardous waste is specially treated, as required. Nuclear waste is left in casks at the plants that created it, until someone makes a decision about what to do with it.
Household waste is often segregated, as required by municipalities. Plastics and metals, which are not biodegradable, are recycled. Hazardous waste goes into special containers, often on designated days. Biodegradable waste is often composted, either by the municipality, or by the resident.
Biodegradable waste can give off methane gas as it decomposes. Methane is a powerful global warming gas, much more powerful than carbon dioxide. In places where a sufficient amount of methane is generated, it is often used to generate heat or electricity.
In other words, the answer is Yes.
. that cannot be broken down in the environment by natural process
we can manage biodegradable wastes by using landfills
i can show you biodegradable pictures
Biodegradable Wastes.
why is waste for us
All except perhaps Biodegradable wastes. E-Wastes, Nuclear wastes, Non-Biodegradable, Biomedical etc all harm the environment
They are.
Organic wastes like blood and cotton bandages are biodegradable. Wastes like disposable syringes and other plastic materials are not biodegradable.
Some are, some aren't. Those wastes that are biodegradable can be eaten by bacteria and/or fungi.
yes
We segregate our biodegradable and non-biodegradable wastes so that all biodegradable can be used as fertilizers while the non biodegradable can be recycled to make different creative products.
One of the solutions to non-biodegradable wastes can be recycling. Another solution is to embrace the use of biodegradable products as an alternative.
No much is biodegradable like paper.
