(N/A) Domestic waste can be segregated into two categories: biodegradable and non-biodegradable.
Biodegradable waste,such as kitchen scraps,rotten food,and garden waste (leaves,grass),can be converted into manure through the process of composting.
This waste is collected in pits or landfills where microorganisms decompose the organic matter aerobically or anaerobically to form nutrient-rich manure.
Non-biodegradable waste,such as plastic,glass,and metal,cannot be converted into manure and should be sent for recycling.
