Efforts to mitigate toxic exposure from MSW include:
Improved Waste Segregation: Encouraging households and businesses to separate hazardous waste from non-hazardous waste can reduce the risk of contamination. Recycling and Safe Disposal: Proper recycling of electronic waste and safe disposal of chemicals and pharmaceuticals can prevent toxins from entering the environment. Advanced Waste Treatment Technologies: Technologies such as anaerobic digestion and incineration with energy recovery can reduce the volume and toxicity of waste. Public Education: Raising awareness about the importance of responsible waste management can help reduce the generation of hazardous waste.
