Generation of hazardous wastes is then reduced. Product changes can reduce the waste generated from a product's use by the consumer. For example, use of a water based paint rather than a solvent based paint eliminates the need for flammable solvents, messy cleanups, and volatile vapor emissions. Recycling Recycling techniques take a waste and either reuse it or reclaim. Wastes are put to beneficial use rather than disposed of.
Reclamation is the recovery of a valuable material from a waste.
The material could be used by your business or sold to another company. The more businesses that purchase recycled materials, the more profitable any future recycling efforts will be. Following up As long as wastes are being produced, there is the potential for waste reduction. Less-polluting materials, equipment, and procedures are constantly being developed, so that wastes that are difficult or costly to control today may be easily eliminated tomorrow. Stay alert for such.
