Rapid urbanization, industrialization, technological development, and population growth have created serious problems with rising solid waste generation, managing such enormous amounts of is becoming increasingly difficult. Each year, more than one billion tonnes trash are produced, they end up unscientifically in the environment, creating costs for society, economy, ecosystem. The proper manag...

Kitchen waste has been confirmed as an appropriate substrate for anaerobic digestion, although means of alleviating the difficulties and time-consuming nature start-up phase need to be further explored. Based on mechanism we discuss factors influencing kitchen waste. By controlling temperature, pH, organic loading rate, inoculation ratio other parameters, high activity methane-producing archaea...

Food waste is a global issue with serious economic and environmental implications. Although a number of psychosocial and cultural factors have been identified, little attention has been paid to how food waste is culturally presented, circulated, and mediated. In this exploratory study, we consider how food waste is presented in the thriving genre of reality food television. Specifically, we con...

the purpose of this research was to evaluate the recovery potential of solid waste in mashhad. the solid waste generated in the regions 4, 5 and 6 has been quantified and characterized using direct weighing, physical testing and truckload sampling methods. to determine the quantity and quality of waste generated and its seasonal variations, chemical and physical analysis were carried out for on...

The proper management of solid waste is the need of the time. The solid waste consists of various components, some of them are biodegradable where as other are non biodegradable. The waste from various biodegradable sources could be utilized as a feed material for the gas production. The objective of this study is food waste management through biogas production. Various parameters were studied ...

Sanitary behaviour is an important, but seldom studied, aspect of social living. Social insects have developed several strategies for dealing with waste and faecal matter, including dumping waste outside the nest and forming specialised waste-storage chambers. In some cases waste material and faeces are put to use, either as a construction material or as a long-lasting signal, suggesting that f...

East Asia is the manufacturing belt, garden, and kitchen of the world. It is also the woodlot and toilet. Many of the natural resources and materials that are required as inputs into the production of export commodities are extracted at low prices from the developing countries of the region. At the same time the region’s oceans, soils, and atmosphere are drains and dumps for waste and pollution.

With Increasing Energy Demand in the World and to keep Environment Friendly, biogas technology has attained a notable position for the future scope. This paper tells about a comprehension review on anaerobic digestion of cow dung and food waste with Water hyacinths to enhance biogas productions. Water hyacinths are treated as waste in rivers, ponds, but they have high potential in biogas produc...
