Comment les stratégies de gestion des déchets peuvent-elles s’adapter à l’évolution des conditions environnementales et sociales ?

More awareness is required to prevent or reduce the waste generation. For example on the usage of disposable plastic containers and carry bags. One should habituate simple things like using steel or copper water bottles, carry your own water bottle always, and use cloth bags. To commence this, the governing body should collaborate with the corporate to take measures in bringing affordable and biodegradable packaging and bags which can be as cheap as plastics, like "initiation of Manjalpai by tamilnadu govt. In India". However the execution should last lonh for fruitful results.

Officials, scientists and engineers must be able to use their vision and look far down the road for eventual problems due to changing public tastes, trends in consumption etc. One example is rechargeable batteries - introduction of these batteries into garbage streams resulted in serious air emissions of mercury, cadmium etc. from municipal waste incineration, and this could have been anticipated. Now, discarded clothing is clogging landfills worldwide due to rapid changes in fashion tastes. Waste professionals must be engaged with the direction that society is heading in order to anticipate future needs.

Waste management strategy should have room for evaluation, control and monitoring either quarterly or annually depending on the type chosen and regulation. This process is necessary due to changing policies on environment (nationally, sub-national and local), incentives and the dynamic nature of humans who are both the beneficiary and the cause of pollution. For example, door-2-door collection is the most convenient means of disposing solid waste by households, however, if the collectors dump the waste in a waterway, it ends up causing more harm. Thus, if government takes responsibility by scheduling days with vans and use of a landfill, it becomes more preferable.

Redução de geração de resíduos está atrelado diretamente com consumo consciente. Para atuar com geração de resíduos visando a diminuição é preciso aplicar os conceitos de economia circular e reciclagem.

Waste management strategies can adapt to changing environmental and social conditions by integrating sustainable practices. This includes promoting recycling, reducing single-use items, and incorporating technology for efficient waste sorting. Collaboration with local communities, educational initiatives, and staying informed about evolving environmental regulations also play crucial roles in ensuring adaptable waste management strategies. Regular assessments and updates based on changing conditions help in maintaining effective and environmentally responsible waste management practices.

Segregação e a coleta de resíduos adequada destacam-se como etapas essencial para efetividade do gerenciamento de resíduos e consequentemente favorece na melhoria às mudanças nas condições ambientais e sociais. Principalmente quando relacionamos saneamento à qualidade de vida, sistemas de coletas eficientes interferem na melhoria de saúde pública.

The waste treatment processes should be designed in such a way to recover process byproducts and reduce embodied energy. Flyash is one of the great examples. Hybridization of processes is required to treat a particular class of waste which again connects with collection and segregation. In pyrolysis process, due care has to be taken to prevent SOx, NOx, and other toxic emissions to avoid secondary pollution. Contrary to treatment alone, new process can be evolved to turn waste as a value added product. For instance, use of agricultural waste or biomass as cocopit, kitchen cutlery, furniture, etc rather than burning alone.

Eventhough waste handling strategies are tested in the lab, funding should be increased as an encouragement to execute such projects in the pilot scale at the field. On the other hand, the operators have to be paid enough to increase the societal participation.
