We will have a closer look on some of the techniques used for waste management. We will explain some terms, and will look behind the waste removal curtain in developing countries.
Waste Management
The term waste management describes the whole process of collecting, storing, unloading, reusing or recycling. From this explanation it is obvious that waste management is an environmental friendly activity which should be taken very seriously. There are two main techniques of waste management – hygienic one or crafted waste dump and composting.
Other existing methods are bailing, petrification, pyrolysis and more. The approaches of stream discarding, sanitary landfill and land interment permanent garbage disposal approaches help to lower the waste quantity.
Solid Waste Management in Developing Countries
There are many nations that have implemented these techniques into their waste administrations, but some of them have failed. Such country is Nigeria, the solid waste management is a critical point in the policy of the country. The Nigerian government is taking all possible measures to utilize those techniques but still they've not completely done it.
The main problem for Nigeria is the lack of involvement in strong waste management of some Nigerian areas. These are are also large generators of waste in the country.
The amount of solid waste is increasing day after day and the government in the country is quite concerned about the situation. Recycling can be the answer to their waste management issues. Recycling by plummeting items to fresh basic materials will definitely decrease the discharge of greenhouse gases. This will help to prevent the contamination of the water and air, as well.
The damage it can cause to our world is quite disturbing and if we do not apply some measures in the correct time, if we continue to live against not with the environment, then soon the moment from which no one could save us from will come – natural disasters.
If we are not able to take the appropriate waste administration decisions now, what about the future when more and more waste will be accumulated and should need disposal. The climate is already warmer than before, the contamination of air is in good shape but there are times when it is not. All of these factors have an effect on the glaciers and are future threat for flooding some countries.
There are many countries that follow the modern and already proven strategies of waste proper management but some are failing in their efforts. We already took a closer look on Nigeria, where the waste management is a crucial issue for the Nigerian government whose efforts for implementing the waste management techniques are still not fully successful.
