Enhancement of Waste Management System
16 Mar 2023
A good waste management system ensures that waste is disposed of in an environmentally friendly, economically viable, and socially responsible manner. Responsible and efficient waste disposal involves the use of several different components. The three main components of a waste management system are trash bins, recycling bins and dumpsters.
This article will cover The importance of waste containers and The elements to consider when selecting them.
The importance of waste containers
While the basic function of waste containers is to keep trash in one place until it is removed, there are other important functions associated with them as well. In fact, the right waste containers can make a significant difference in waste management. Get ready to learn why choosing the right waste containers is so important.
Security
Keeping your waste secure may seem like an unnecessary concern, but if you’ve ever visited the park in Malaysia with “Monkey Families” staying in; or witnessed stray dogs or cats scavenging around torn garbage bags, the importance of secure waste containers becomes clear. These animals thrive on leftovers and can easily tear through plastic bags in search of food. Proper waste containers can greatly reduce the possibility of such scenarios occurring, ensuring that what is thrown away stays away until the authorities collect and remove it.
Recycling
The 3-R slogan of waste management – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle is well-known, even among children. Recycling has been an important environmental issue for several decades, and it has become increasingly crucial in recent years as awareness of the impact of human activity on the planet has grown. Modern recycling is a complex process that involves several stages, from collection and sorting to processing and reuse. The first step in modern recycling is collection, and using the right waste containers to separate waste at the beginning of the recycling process had become crucial. Germany, the world’s leading recycling country, recycled 67.1% of all municipal solid waste in 2020. Their recycling system uses six different bins classified according to a color system, which tells users what kind of waste they can put into each of them. This proves that the use of right waste containers can make recycling even more efficient.
Environmental friendliness
One of the most well-known mouse-borne disease was the bubonic plague (also known as the Black Death), caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, which was responsible for killing millions of people in Europe in the 14th century. Historically, mouse-borne disease were often associated with unsanitary living conditions and poor waste management practices. One of the reasons why communal waste collection was established in the past was to reduce the spread of diseases and the stench that inevitably emerged from places where trash was disposed of. Waste containers today play an important role in keeping a neighbourhood environmentally friendly by keeping garbage locked in and collected by authorities, hence preventing environmental pollution. This can help maintain a healthy ecosystem and prevent the spread of diseases.
Hygiene and sanitation
Of course, if there was no need for them, waste containers would not have been invented at all. Waste containers were invented out of necessity for proper waste management. They play a critical role in improving the hygiene and sanitation of a neighbourhood. Once there are designated places for trash to be disposed of, the community becomes cleaner, better organized, and every aspect is utilized to its full potential.
Waste containers are crucial for maintaining cleanliness and hygiene in our surroundings. They provide a convenient and safe way to dispose of waste, preventing litter and minimizing the spread of disease. Selecting the right waste container is important to ensure that waste is disposed of efficiently and effectively.
Elements to consider when selecting waste container
Capacity
The capacity of your waste bins should be considered. Take a moment to reflect on the amount of paper, plastic, and metal that your establishment produces each day, as well as the number of people who use the bins and how often the bins are emptied. By selecting the right size of bins that match your daily waste output, you can ensure sustainable peace of mind.
Material of Construction
The material for your waste containers should not be compromised as it affects important qualities such as durability. For instance, Fibre-reinforced Plastic (FRP) is an ideal material for waste bins that remain outside year-round as it is resistant to corrosion and rust. Polyethylene (PE) bins are also durable and UV-stabilized to ensure that the original colors last for a long time. When selecting waste containers, it’s important to consider the material to ensure that it is suitable for your specific needs.
Customization
Uniqueness is key to standing out among the crowd. Customized waste receptacles can provide both aesthetic and functional benefits. By customizing waste bins, they can fit neatly in the space where they will be deployed. Customization features may include color-matching, laser-cut logos, and additional decals that help identify different categories of waste. These features can align your waste containers with your business image, brand, and values.
Style
Once you have gone through all the fundamental requirements, you can start considering the design style. The rule of thumb for waste disposal receptacles is carbon footprint reduction. However, when selecting the ideal style for your organization or project, curb appeal and ambiance will be enhanced. For instance, you may choose shaped receptacles, such as can-shaped, paper-shaped, or bottle-shaped, for a recycling campaign. Alternatively, cubicle, rectangular, and cylindrical bins depending on the area where the bins will be positioned.
Selecting the right waste containers can save your money and time in both the short and long term. Look for features that satisfy your organization's waste disposal requirements and environmental obligations. Investing in high-quality bins will provide lasting peace of mind.
