Hazards of Solid Waste

May 08, 2013

READ: In terms of sources, solid waste can be generally classified into such three groups as domestic waste, common industrial waste and dangerous waste. Apart from these, there are also some other solid waste, for example, agricultural solid waste, building waste and deserted soil.

In terms of sources, solid waste can be generally classified into such three groups as domestic waste, common industrial waste and dangerous waste. Apart from these, there are also some other solid waste, for example, agricultural solid waste, building waste and deserted soil. Mountains of solid waste has exposed the whole natural environment to great hazards. However, what are the hazards brought to the overall human society ?

Hazards on natural environment

Usually solid waste are directly discharged into every corner of the nature, so it has exerted huge negative influence on it which human subsist on.

Air hazards. Solid waste emits large volumes of harmful substances and volatilizes a multitude of poisonous gases, thus decreaseing air quality. Immense tiny particles and powder float along wind in atmosphere and cause contamination. Buried organic solid waste decompose into carbon dioxide and methane which travels to atmosphere and exert pressure on air quality.

Soil hazards. The solid wastes discharged have crammed many acres of land. Buried underground, they emit harmful substances that penetrate into the soil. The soil attaches and accumulates the harmful components among soil solid phase. Consequently, they change the soil structure and components, endanger the vegetation and even infertilize the soil.

Water hazards. Harmful substances such as waste discharged directly into rivers and oceans, stored in the open air and tiny particles floating in the air can enter into the surface water ecosystem and dissolve into harmful substance that poisons the organisms, leading to severe oxygen shortage in water, eutrophication, fish deaths and so on.

Hazards on human society

Hazards on human fitness. Solid waste has brought about serious pollution to natural environment and a series of hazards on air, soil and water, which however human closely depend upon. It has exposed human to hazards when harmful elements in the air are inhaled into human body. Those penetrating into soil are taken into human stomach via vegetation. Water is indispensable to human life since human intakes water on a daily basis. Accordingly, all the substances have the access into human body in a very obsure way and generated huge hazards on human fitness. Recently, the increased cancer rates also intimately correlate to the fact.

Hazards on social environment. Discharged solid waste contributes to the chaotic phenomenon of stacked gabbage in city. It even happened that city image was seriously affected when all kinds of gabbage plastics were blown all over in the air by gust wind. Besides, the harmful substances floating in the air greatly decrease the city air quality. Everytime after you come back from an outing, you will find yourself overally covered with dust, upsetting your original good mood. Therefore, it is imperative to improve on city environment.

 

Key words:
