On the afternoon of March 3, at the party building work meeting of urban enterprises, Comrade Cao Tuhua, Secretary of the Party committee, issued instructions to urban enterprises to actively respond to the government's call to implement garbage reduction and classification activities.The implementation personnel of the enterprise are required to set up a special activity group, combine the creation of a beautiful factory area, and effectively do a good job in waste reduction and classification.In order to effectively complete the garbage sorting and reduction work assigned by the Party committee at the higher level, all party members, managers and all employees of the company are encouraged to actively participate in the garbage sorting and reduction work, lead by example in their usual work and life, and standardize their behavior according to garbage sorting standards, whether it is in the unit, in the family, or in other social activities. Resolutely do not litter, minimize garbage generation, and resolutely implement the garbage generated in accordance with the classification requirements, and set an example for the public with their own self-discipline and exemplary behavior, so as to drive everyone to participate in garbage sorting, create beautiful factories, and build green homes together.

In order to facilitate everyone to understand the necessity and urgency of garbage sorting, and to fully mobilize everyone to participate in garbage sorting activities, I have found some content on garbage sorting to use the corporate newspaper publicity platform as the company's garbage sorting reduction activities to promote publicity, hoping to promote everyone's enthusiasm and initiative to participate in garbage sorting.

1. What is garbage classification?

Garbage classification is to classify garbage according to recyclable and non-recyclable methods.Humans produce a large amount of garbage every day, and a large amount of garbage is unclassified, recycled, reused, and disposed of arbitrarily, which will cause environmental pollution.Garbage sorting is to sort and put garbage at the source, and turn it back into a resource through the sorting, transportation and recycling.

Second, our country's garbage classification method

Recyclable garbage: it mainly includes five categories of waste paper, plastic, glass, metal and fabric.

Waste paper: it mainly includes newspapers, periodicals, books, various wrapping paper, office paper, advertising paper, cartons, etc., But it should be noted that paper towels and toilet paper are not recyclable due to their strong water solubility.

Plastic: It mainly includes various plastic bags, plastic packaging, disposable plastic lunch boxes and tableware, toothbrushes, cups, mineral water bottles, toothpaste skins, etc.

Glass: It mainly includes various glass bottles, broken glass pieces, mirrors, light bulbs, etc.

Fabrics: Mainly include discarded clothes, tablecloths, face towels, schoolbags, shoes, etc.

Metal objects: mainly including cans, canned boxes, etc.

Non-recyclable garbage: including bricks, tiles, ceramics, muck, toilet waste paper, paper towels and other difficult-to-recycle waste in addition to the above types of garbage, sanitary landfills can effectively reduce the pollution of groundwater, surface water, soil and air.

Food waste: including food waste such as leftovers, bones, roots, leaves, and peels, it can be composted on-site by biotechnology, which can produce 0.5% per ton.3 tons of organic fertilizer.

Toxic waste: including waste batteries, waste fluorescent tubes, waste water, thermometers, expired medicines, etc., these wastes require special safe treatment.

3. Advantages of garbage sorting

Most of the garbage disposal methods are in the traditional way of stacking and landfill, occupying tens of thousands of acres of land; and mosquitoes and flies fly indiscriminately, sewage is overflowing, smelly, and seriously pollutes the environment.Therefore, garbage sorting and collection can reduce the amount of garbage disposal and treatment equipment, reduce treatment costs, and reduce the consumption of land resources. It has social, economic and ecological benefits.

The advantages of garbage sorting and disposal are as follows：

1. Reduce land area: Some substances in domestic waste are not easy to degrade, causing serious erosion of the land.Garbage sorting, removing recyclable and non-degradable substances, reduces the amount of garbage by more than 60%.

2. Reduce environmental pollution: abandoned batteries contain toxic substances such as mercury and cadmium, which can cause serious harm to humans; waste plastics in the soil can cause crop production to decrease; abandoned waste plastics are eaten by animals by mistake, leading to animal deaths. Accidents occur from time to time.Therefore, recycling can reduce hazards.

3. Turning waste into treasure: China uses 4 billion plastic fast food boxes, 500 million to 700 million instant noodle bowls, and billions of pairs of disposable chopsticks every year. These wastes account for 8-15% of domestic waste.1 ton of waste plastic can be recycled into 600 kg of diesel fuel.Recycling 1,500 tons of waste paper can save the trees used to produce 1,200 tons of paper from being cut down.30%-40% of the production waste can be recycled, and this small Italian resource should be cherished.

Fourth, the significance of garbage classification

1. Separate the kitchen waste with perishable organic ingredients, and provide high-quality raw materials for garbage compost, which can produce high-quality organic fertilizer, which is conducive to improving soil fertility and reducing the amount of fertilizer applied.

2. Separating kitchen waste with high moisture content improves the calorific value of other waste incineration and reduces the difficulty of controlling secondary pollution from waste incineration.；

3. Sorting out harmful garbage reduces the content of heavy metals, organic pollutants, and pathogenic bacteria in the garbage, which is conducive to the harmless treatment of garbage, and reduces the risk of water, soil, and air pollution in garbage disposal.

4. Diverting different types of garbage has greatly reduced the amount that eventually enters sanitary landfills and extended the service life of landfills.

5. The proportion of waste recycling and utilization has been increased, the demand for raw materials has been reduced, and carbon dioxide emissions have been reduced.

6. Popularize the knowledge of environmental protection and garbage, enhance the whole society's awareness of the sanitation industry, reduce the difficulty of sanitation workers' work, and form an atmosphere of respect and concern for sanitation workers.
