What is the difference between dry waste and wet waste?
Dry waste consists of things like paper, plastic, aluminium foils, Tetra pak, metal cans, etc. Different types of kitchen waste such as stale food, vegetables or fruits fall under the wet waste category. It is essential to segregate these two categories on a daily basis. While dry waste can be thrown away twice or thrice a week, wet waste must be disposed of regularly.
Why is waste segregation important?
Meticulous segregation of waste goes a long way towards achieving a healthy environment. It reduces waste that reaches landfills which in turn causes air and water pollution. Segregation makes it easier to recycle recyclable items and to process the other streams of waste in respective sustainable ways including composting, bio-methanation and, in some case, incineration.
What will happen if we don’t separate dry and wet waste?
The long-term effects of waste accumulation are dangerous. It leads to poor soil quality and pollutes water sources, posing serious health hazards for humans and animals. Sustainable dry and wet waste management procedures help to reduce waste going to landfills and prevent the emission of greenhouse gases.
