Where does all our garbage disappear once it leaves our homes ? There are four methods of managing waste: recycling, landfilling, composting and burning. Each method has its strength and weaknesses.
Recycling is the process of turning waste into new materials. For example, used paper can be turned into peparboard, which can be used to make book covers. Recycling can reduce pollution, save materials and lower energy use. Some argue that collecting, processing and converting waste use more than it saves.
Landfilling is the oldest method of managing waste. Landfilling is to bury garbage in a hole. Over a period of time the process of landfilling has advanced. Garbage is compacted before it is thrown into the pit. In this way garbage can fit in each landfill. Large garbage base are placed at the bottom of a landfill, so that toxic garbage juice does not get into the groundwater. But in spite of the bags, landfills may pollute the underground water . Not to mention that all garbage stinks. Nobody wants to live next to a landfill.
As landfill space increases, interest in composting grows. Composting is when people pile up organic matter, such as food waste and allow it to decompose. The product of this decomposition is composet. Composed can be added to the soil to make the soil richer and better for growing crops .
One thing that is a easier to do is burning garbage. There are two main ways to burn waste. The first is to harvest fuel from the waste. The secondis is to burn the waste directly,the heat from this burning process can boil water,which can power steamg generators. Unfortunatly, burning garbage pollutes the air.
