Classification of solid waste: COMPOSTABLE WASTES. Compostable wastes are biodegradable wastes such as food waste, garden waste, animal waste and human waste. They undergo biological degradation under controlled conditions and can be tumed into compost (soil conditioner or organic Tertilizer) by mixing them with soil, water, air and biological additives/activators (optional) B. RECYCLABLE WASTES. Recyclable materials refer to any waste material retrieved from the waste stream and free from contamination that can still be converted into suitable beneficial use. These may be transformed into new products in such a manner that the original products may lose their identity C. RESIDUAL WASTES. Residual wastes are solid waste materials that are non-compostable and non-recyclable. It should be disposed ecologically through a long-term disposal facility or sanitary landfill. D. SPECIAL WASTES. Special wastes refer to household hazardous wastes.
