Environmental Impact of Waste Treatment Activities
A thread from smallcycle.com

Modern sewage treatment is complex. The system is not only about collecting and hoarding, but also where the waste comes from and what tools are used.

The Life cycle Assessment method requires collecting data from upstream to downstream. Both the waste data generated from various activities, as well as the waste that comes out of the waste processing activities. LCA helps find which areas are most affected.

Waste Treatment today
1. Garbage that is successfully secured
In European countries, the waste that has been successfully secured comes from paper recycling, metal recycling, energy recovery, and hoarding.

2. Emissions due to waste processing
In Europe, waste-to-energy processing can provide benefits for recovering electrical energy from burning plastics and textiles. However, the combustion process also has an impact in the form of global warming potential.

Waste treatment innovation
Life Cycle Assessment allows us to find out the vital points that cause environmental impacts. With simulations based on field data, literature data, and specific parameters, LCA makes it possible to estimate the best innovation.

The application of this simulation has broad implications in various fields. Therefore, cooperation between the government and companies is needed in waste processing.

Each region has different conditions, both in terms of waste generated from distance to the supply chain.

4 Benefits of Forests for Human Life and the Environment
A Thread

Forests are part of nature that should be preserved. One-third of the land on earth is a forest which plays an important role in building infrastructure in life.

A lot of land expansion was carried out for the personal benefit of humans which eventually took over the forest.

1. Keeping the Earth Cool
Forests are parts of the earth that are able to conquer the heat and absorb natural and human-produced carbon dioxide. The existence of forests is very important to prevent global warming. Plants in forests need carbon dioxide to carry out photosynthesis

Electric car vs gasoline car which one has better emission?

Are you a gasoline car user, or are you starting to switch to using an electric car? The electric car promises to produce no emissions because the engine uses electric power. However, electric cars are still quite expensive.

The motivation for owning an electric car is to want to contribute to reducing carbon emissions from fossil fuels. But do electric cars really have lower carbon emissions than petrol cars?

Why You Should Solar Panelling for Homes

Now many people have taken advantage of solar panelling for homes. The increase in electricity bills that occur every month, makes many people complain.

The increasing use of technology forces us to keep using electricity. In addition, the economic situation during the pandemic

Solar panels or commonly referred to as solar cells are electrical devices that work by converting light energy directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect.

How does the solar panel work? This is the explanation

Have you ever been dizzy thinking about the very high electricity bill? Moreover, at this time the basic electricity tariff can increase at any time.

Having your own solar panel helps with expenses, as well as a long term investment. Because it can be used for years.

The following is an explanation of how does the solar panel work

1. Capturing Sunlight
Sunlight can be caught because it is made of solar cells made from pure silicon. There are 2 layers of silicon, namely types N and P. They stick together and are formed from semiconductors.

Costing of solar panel in a developing country

In developing countries, the costing of solar panel is quite expensive. This is because electricity using solar is something that is still uncommon, so it requires difficult equipment

Solar panels are a component that has the function of converting energy produced from sunlight into electrical energy. Solar panels or commonly known as solar panels are also famous for their fairly expensive prices
