Soil Contamination due to Wet waste, when dumped improperly, can leach harmful chemicals and organic matter into the soil, affecting soil quality and fertility. Runoff from wet waste can carry pollutants into water bodies, contaminating rivers, lakes, and groundwater. This can harm aquatic life and affect water quality for human consumption. Decomposing wet waste in landfills produces methane, a potent greenhouse gas that contributes significantly to global warming. Incomplete decomposition of organic matter can release carbon dioxide, another greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change.
Improperly disposed wet waste can attract pests such as rodents, flies, and mosquitoes, which can spread diseases like malaria, dengue, and leptospirosis. Biodiversity Loss due to Leachate and runoff from wet waste can alter the chemical composition of habitats, negatively impacting plant and animal species. Nutrient runoff from organic waste can lead to excessive algae growth in water bodies, depleting oxygen levels and harming aquatic life.
Improper disposal of wet waste has severe consequences for the environment, public health, and the economy. Effective waste management practices, including composting, anaerobic digestion are essential to mitigate these impacts and promote sustainability.
The Wet waste can be processed to produce biogas, a renewable energy source. Improper disposal means losing this potential energy resource hence it is critical to capture potential GHG gases that harm the atmosphere leading to climate change . This is done through the project activity. Using the anaerobic methods, clean gas is harnessed from the wet waste which displaces the Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) which is most commonly used a s cooking fuel in many homes and commercial establishments.
