WASTE MANAGEMENT

Waste Management



Abstract

In this study, we try to explore the concept of “Waste Management” in a holistic context. The focus of the research is on “Waste Management” and its relation with “Incineration.” The research also analyzes many aspects of “Waste Management” and tries to gauge its effect on “Incineration.” Finally, the research describes various factors, which are responsible for “Waste Management,” and tries to describe the overall effect of “Waste Management” on “Incineration.”

Waste Management-Incineration

Incineration is a treatment that is to destroy the waste by high temperature action (Thermal destruction). Thermal destruction is done in ovens, which generally have two chambers. The primary camera (which is 800 º C) receives the waste and is where the combustion process in an oxygen deficient atmosphere. The amount of combustion air is regulated to release the volatile material fixed carbon and oxidize the residue. The resulting gases pass into the secondary chamber, which introduces excess air and air-gas mixture, is re-burning at 1200 º C with a residence time of 2 seconds. Incineration primarily used to destroy organic materials, inorganic elements and those other organic materials. It is also used to destroy finished products not wish to market and raw material not be used, for example:

Food and expired medicines

Drugs coming to maturity

Discontinued product packaging

Raw materials and products out of specification

There and waste, waste, air and other media, economic costs and labor costs incineration, energy, unsustainable losses and other related waste management systems are not compatible with a few shortcomings.

Dioxins are the most notorious pollutants associated with incinerators. Lead to a series of health problems, including cancer, immune system damage and the development of reproductive problems. Biomagnification of dioxins, which means that they prey by predators from the food chain, meat and dairy products, and finally concentrated in humans. Dioxins are of particular concern because they are in, have been shown to cause health problems, which means that the entire population affected, the current levels of environmental (and human) everywhere. Worldwide, the major source of dioxin incinerators. Incineration is also a major source of mercury pollution. Mercury is a powerful neurotoxin, damaging motor, sensory and cognitive function, mercury pollution is widespread. Incineration is also such as lead, cadmium, arsenic, chromium, beryllium, and an important source of harmful heavy metals.

Burning Issues

On waste incineration, emissions, air and other media, economic costs and labor costs, energy, the losses are not sustainable, as well as other waste management systems are not compatible. Specific issues with the countries of the South also involved. Dioxins are the most notorious pollutants associated with incinerators. Lead to a series of health problems, including cancer, immune system damage and the development of reproductive problems. Worldwide, the major source of dioxin incinerators.
