Its objective is to produce an environmentally-safe fluid waste stream (or treated effluent) and a solid waste (or treated sludge) suitable for disposal or reuse (usually as farm fertilizer). Using advanced technology it is now possible to re-use sewage effluent for drinking water‚ although Singapore is the only country to implement

The improper or inadequate disposal of such wastes leads to unhealthy conditions. This becomes a sourceof pollution and a public health problem. If such waste is recycled in a biogas plant‚ itwill be a source of energy‚ health and wealth. 2)Alternative substrates for biomethanation When alternative substrates

Tobacco Composting: An Alternative to Burning or Landfill Composting is the purposeful biodegradation of organic matter‚ such as yard‚ food and agro-industrial waste. The decomposition is performed by micro-organisms‚ mostly bacteria‚ but also yeasts and fungi. A biodegradable material is capable of being completely broken down under the action of microorganisms into carbon dioxide‚ water and biomass. A compostable material biodegrades substantially under specific composting conditions.

INTRODUCTION The waste produced in the course of health care activities carries a higher potential for infection and injury than any other type of waste. Therefore it is essential to have safe and reliable method for its handling. Inadequate or improper handling of biomedical waste may have serious public health consequences and a significant impact upon environment. Appropriate management of health care waste is thus a crucial component of environmental health protection and it should become an
