Ang Pasig River Rehabilitation Program (PRRP) ay ang programang sinimulan noong 1991 sa tulong ng banyagang organisasyon na DANIDA (Danish International Development Assitance). Layon nitong paunlaring muli ang kalidad ng tubig at palutangin ang angking ganda ng paligid. Sinimulan ang pagpapalipat ng mga iskwater na nakatira sa gilid ng ilog upang mabawasan ang mga itinatapong basura dito. Inalis ang mga nakalubog na bahagi ng mga nasirang bangka o barko sa ilalim ng ilog. Naipalaganap na rin ang kamalayan sa estado ng ilog at naturuan ang mga mamamayan ng tamang pagtatapon ng basura upang buhaying muli ang namamatay na ilog.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Waste sorting is the process by which waste is separated into different elements.[1] Waste sorting can occur manually at the household and collected through curbside collection schemes, or automatically separated in materials recovery facilities or mechanical biological treatment systems. Hand sorting was the first method used in the history of waste sorting.[2] Until now this method is still used.[citation needed ]

Waste can also be sorted in a civic amenity site.

"Waste segregation" means dividing waste into dry and wet. Dry waste includes wood and related products, metals and glass. Wet waste typically refers to organic waste usually generated by eating establishments and are heavy in weight due to dampness. Waste segregation is different from waste sorting. Waste segregation is the grouping of waste into different categories. Each waste goes into its category at the point of dumping or collection, but sorting happens after dumping or collection. Segregation of waste ensures pure, quality material. Sorting on the other hand will end up producing impure materials with less quality.

Waste is collected at its source in each area and separated. The way that waste is sorted must reflect local disposal systems. The following categories are common:[3]

Organic waste can also be segregated for disposal:

Leftover food which has had any contact with meat can be collected separately to prevent the spread of bacteria.

Meat and bone can be retrieved by bodies responsible for animal waste.

If other leftovers are sent, for example, to local farmers, they can be sterilised before being fed to the animals.

Peels and scrapings from fruit and vegetables can be composted along with other degradable matter. Other waste can be included for composting, such as cut flowers, corks, coffee grounds, rotting fruit, tea bags, eggshells and nutshells, and paper towels.

Mechanisms for automated sorting

This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it.

Automation of municipal solid waste sorting process is an active research area.[4] Notable mechanisms for automated sorting include:

Standardization of products, especially of packaging[5][6][additional citation(s) needed ] which are often composed of different materials, in particular materials hard or currently impossible to either separate or recycle together in an automated way.[7]
Laws related to recyclability, waste management, domestic materials recovery facilities, product composition, biodegradability and prevention of import/export of specific wastes.
Since around 2017, China,[8] Turkey,[9] Malaysia,[10] Cambodia,[11] and Thailand[12] have banned certain waste imports. It has been suggested that such bans may increase automation[13] and recycling, decreasing negative impacts on the environment.[14]

Optical sorting

Eddy current based sorting[4]

In Germany, regulations exist that provide mandatory quotas for the waste sorting of packaging waste and recyclable materials such as glass bottles.[20]

In Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia, a pilot project using an automated collecting machine of plastic bottles or aluminium cans with voucher reward has been implemented in a market.[21]

In India, the government inaugurated the Swachh Bharat Mission ("Clean India Mission") in 2014, a nationwide cleanup effort. Before this national consolidated effort for systematic and total waste management came into common consciousness, many cities and towns in India had already launched individual efforts directed at municipal waste collection of segregated waste, either based on citizen activism and/or municipal efforts to set up sustainable systems.[22]

In Ukraine, people are learning to sort garbage. Garbage is sorted in schools and kindergartens in Khmelnytsky.[23]

In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency reports that the infrastructure for recycling waste has not kept pace with the rate of waste production.[24]

In terms of plastic waste sorting and recycling, an estimated 9% of the estimated 6.3 billion tonnes of plastic waste from the 1950s up to 2018 has been recycled and another 12% has been incinerated with the rest reportedly being " dumped in landfills or the natural environment".[25]

International Coastal Cleanup is the largest volunteer effort for ocean's health. Held annually every third Saturday of September, people around the world gather on beaches, coasts, rivers, waterways and underwater dive sites to remove trash and record information on the debris collected. Results will aid in better waste management policies/plans, product packaging designs and in stirring environmental consciousness among the people.

The Philippines Clean Air Act of 1999 (Republic Act No. 8749) outlines the government’s measures to reduce air pollution and incorporate environmental protection into its development plans. It relies heavily on the polluter pays principle and other market-based instruments to promote self-regulation among the population. It sets emission standards for all motor vehicles and issues pollutant limitations for industry. Emission limit values are laid down by The Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Philippines as ‘Implementing Rules and Regulations for Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999’. These rules and regulations shall apply to all industrial emissions and other establishments which are potential sources of air pollution.
