Waste is segregated accoding to the following types: Biodegradable waste Recyclable waste Non-recyclable waste Biodegradable waste can be again of different types: food waste, dry leaves, etc. for composting and reuse. Recyclable waste can be of different types, such as: paper, wood, cotton, reusable hardware, glass, metal scrap, etc Non-recyclable waste includes polythenes and plastics which cannot be treated for reuse.
Waste can be segregated into its various components by two major methods.
* The first is the easiest, Do not mix it up in the first place - metal goes to one container, paper to another, food waste to a third and so on. The various containers are kept segregated until the waste gets to the recycling or disposal location. This requires a lot of user level commitment.
* The second is to toss out all waste together. Human or mechanical pickers pull out the obvious chunks (large metal items etc.) for recycling. The remainder is pulverized into small bits and mechanically separated by blowing, flotation or biochemical action into component streams (essentially a cream separator for waste) and each stream heads off for further treatment. This requires ahigh capital investment and hgh operating costs.
Aside: The advantage of the second method is that once set up the system can start to process existing contents of disposal sites
Proper Waste Segregation is really important because it is one of the main factors of our Ecological and Environmental Problems. With the help of Proper Waste Segregation, our Mother Earth will be taken care of properly.
Waste segregation: Seperate, but equally disgusting.

Waste Segregation is dividing waste into dry and wet groups. Dry includes woods, metals and glass. Wet usually means organic matter.
waste segregation can make our streets cleaner.It can help us recycle things...

It enables more of the waste to be recycled, which reduces the drain on resources and energy when new stuff is being produced. It also reduces the amount of stuff that has to go to landfills, which is also environmentally good.

The advantages of wastes segregation,it is easily to collect by the wastes collectors and you will know what to do in each wastes that you have been collected
a. How do you dispose your biodegradables? Do you bury them or put in a compost pit?
We can avoid contamination and dangerous substances mixing.
