Garbage can be divided into four main categories

(1) Perishable garbage: perishable household garbage containing organic matter.

(2) Recyclable garbage: garbage with high recycling value and can enter the waste recycling channel.

(3) Hazardous waste: garbage containing toxic and harmful chemicals.

(4) Other garbage: a general term for all garbage except recyclable garbage, hazardous garbage, and perishable garbage.

The significance of garbage sorting

01Reduce the footprint

Some substances in domestic garbage are not easy to degrade, so that the land is seriously eroded. Garbage classification, remove recyclable and non-degradable substances, and reduce the amount of garbage by more than 60%.

02Reduce pollution

At present, garbage disposal on the mainland mostly adopts the method of sanitary landfill or even simple landfill, which occupies tens of thousands of acres of land; insects and flies fly indiscriminately, sewage overflows, and the smell is stinking, seriously polluting the environment. Waste plastics in the soil can lead to reduced crop yields, and discarded waste plastics are accidentally eaten by animals, resulting in accidents that kill animals. Therefore, recycling can also reduce hazards.

03Turn waste into treasure

China uses 4 billion plastic fast food boxes, 5~700 million instant noodle bowls, and billions of pairs of disposable chopsticks every year, which account for 8~15% of domestic waste. 1 ton of waste plastic can be used to recycle 600 kg of diesel. Recycling 1,500 tonnes of waste paper saves the cutting of trees used to produce 1,200 tonnes of paper. After one ton of cans are melted, they can form one ton of very good aluminum blocks, and 20 tons of aluminum ore can be mined. 30%~40% of domestic garbage can be recycled, and this small and profitable resource should be cherished. You can also use cans to make pencil cases, which is both environmentally friendly and resource-saving. In addition, other substances in garbage can also be converted into resources, such as food, plants and fabrics can be composted to produce organic fertilizer, waste incineration can be used to generate electricity, heat or cooling, bricks, tiles and ash can be processed into building materials, and so on. All kinds of solid waste mixed together are garbage, and separate is a resource. It can be seen that if the garbage generated in the consumption link is classified in time, recycling and reuse is the best way to solve the garbage problem.
