What are the benefits of sorting trash cans?

First, the advantages of garbage classification Most of the garbage disposal methods are in the traditional stacking and landfill mode, covering an area of tens of thousands of acres; Moreover, mosquitoes and flies fly around, sewage overflows and stinks, which seriously pollutes the environment. Therefore, classified collection of garbage can reduce the quantity and equipment of garbage disposal, reduce the disposal cost and reduce the consumption of land resources, which has social, economic and ecological benefits. The advantages of garbage sorting treatment are as follows:

1, reducing land occupation: some substances in domestic garbage are not easy to degrade, which makes the land seriously eroded. Garbage sorting, removing recyclable and non-degradable substances, reducing the amount of garbage by more than 60%? 2. Reduce environmental pollution: waste batteries contain toxic substances such as mercury and cadmium, which will cause serious harm to human body; Waste plastics in soil will lead to crop yield reduction; Waste plastics are eaten by animals by mistake, resulting in accidents of animal death. Therefore, recycling can reduce harm.

3. Turning waste into treasure: China uses 4 billion plastic snack boxes, 500-700 million instant noodle bowls and billions of disposable chopsticks every year, accounting for 8- 15% of domestic waste. 1 ton of waste plastics can recover 600kg of diesel oil. Recycling 1500 tons of waste paper can avoid cutting down trees used to produce 1200 tons of paper.

30%-40% of the production waste can be recycled, so we should cherish this small-scale and large-scale resource.

Second, the significance of garbage classification

1. Separating kitchen waste containing perishable organic components provides high-quality raw materials for garbage composting and produces high-quality organic fertilizer, which is beneficial to improving soil fertility and reducing fertilizer application.

2. The kitchen waste with high moisture content is separated, which improves the incineration calorific value of other wastes and reduces the difficulty of secondary pollution control in waste incineration.

3. Classifying harmful waste to reduce the contents of heavy metals, organic pollutants and pathogenic bacteria in garbage is conducive to the harmless treatment of garbage and reduce the risk of water, soil and air pollution in garbage treatment? 4. Different kinds of garbage are diverted, which greatly reduces the amount that eventually enters the sanitary landfill and prolongs the service life of the landfill.

5. Increase the proportion of waste recycling, reduce the demand for raw materials and reduce carbon dioxide emissions;

6, popularize knowledge of environmental protection and garbage, enhance the whole society's awareness of the sanitation industry, reduce the difficulty of sanitation workers, and form an atmosphere of respect and care for sanitation workers.
