Industrial Waste Management

Landfills and incineration are the two types of disposal methods used. Usually, in case of landfills, objects are buried into the land. It should be carried out well. It is said to be hygienic and involves less cost. But, the hygiene depends on how well it is buried in the land. However, it can be dangerous, to bury carbon di-oxide and other gaseous material in case it breaks down. The other method known as incineration is the combustion of waste materials. Waste material is heated up and is then converted into gas, heat or ash. Medical waste of hospitals is usually treated with incineration. This is serious concern with environmentalists as with incineration, there is an emission of gaseous items.
