SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT:
A. Waste Segregation, Collection, Recycling, Treatment, Safe Disposal:
The city of San Francisco, USA, has implemented a comprehensive waste management system that includes mandatory recycling and composting programs for residents and businesses.
The city has achieved a diversion rate of over 80%, with the remaining waste being sent to a waste-to-energy facility for safe disposal and energy recovery.
B. Pneumatic Waste Collection, GPS Tracking, Waste-to-Energy Plants:
The city of Wembley, UK, has implemented a pneumatic waste collection system, where waste is transported through underground pipes using air pressure to a centralized collection point.
This system reduces the need for traditional garbage trucks, minimizing traffic congestion and air pollution.
The city of Malmö, Sweden, has a state-of-the-art waste-to-energy plant that processes non-recyclable waste and generates electricity and district heating for the city.
