The Significance of Waste Management Solutions in Keeping Communities and Businesses Safe

Australia has one of the highest per capita trash generation rates in the world. Property values are high due to urbanisation and population concentration, therefore landfills must be positioned sometimes hundreds of kilometres away from cities. The longer waste has to be transported, the more difficult it is to transfer it correctly and the carbon footprint is larger.

Many materials found in household and business waste, such as cardboard, plastic bottles, construction and demolition (C&D) debris, organic waste, liquid waste, and green waste, can be easily processed and reused, reducing the amount of waste that must be disposed of in a landfill. Landfilling is the last choice for waste management because it produces a significant amount of greenhouse gases. Metals and glass, for example, may take thousands or even millions of years to degrade in landfills.

Better waste management choices are now available, such as recycling and waste-to-energy (WtE) systems. Single waste streams such as waste paper, cardboard, tyres, and organic waste are among the most efficient waste management options offered by Solo. Solo provides transportable recycling bins in a variety of sizes.

Regulations for waste disposal and management are strict

Solo's liquid waste solutions for industrial water, septic tanks, cooking oil, and sullage tanks ensure that your liquid waste is safely disposed of. The requirements for liquid waste disposal are strict, and Solo's waste management solutions comply with all municipal and federal regulations. Solo provides bins suitable for high-volume building waste disposal. The bins are ideal for builders since they can receive waste via a wheelbarrow through a gate or dumped by excavators over the low sides. Heavy steel bins can be used to store construction waste such as concrete, metal, and rubble. All construction waste is handled by the waste management team in line with EPA and local municipal standards.

Which type of waste can be disposed of in landfill?

Depending on the type of hazardous waste, it is either physically, chemically, biologically, or thermally handled. Only inactive or partially active hazardous waste can be disposed of underground. Landfills are specifically built and lined with clay, HDPE, or other non-porous materials to prevent garbage from seeping into the earth. Additional waste management measures used in landfills include wind dispersal controls, double liners, and leak protection systems.

Saving natural resources and biodiversity

Solo’s waste management solutions not only save natural resources but also have a positive impact on the country's biodiversity and economy. The vehicles are outfitted with GPS and Solo's proprietary vehicle management systems, and are inspected on a regular basis for performance. The Solo Resource Recovery crew is trained in the most recent waste management techniques.

The crew at Solo has been trained to assist households and businesses in the promotion and implementation of sustainable waste management solutions. Solo provides innovative council waste management solutions to businesses and households throughout Australia, reducing reliance on landfills while protecting the local environment.
