Source Separated Organics (SSO) is the system by which waste generators segregate compostable materials from other waste streams at the source for separate collection. ==Types of Materials== Organic materials, such as yard trimmings, food scraps, wood waste, and paper and paperboard products, typically make up about one-third (by weight) of the municipal solid waste stream.〔http://www.epa.gov/epawaste/nonhaz/municipal/pubs/msw2008rpt.pdf〕 SSO programs depend on the composition of local waste stream, acceptance specifications for the organics processing facility, and collection methods. The types of organic materials collected include: * Yard and landscaping debris: floral trimmings, tree trimmings, leaves, grass, brush, and weeds * Food waste: organic residues generated by the handling, storage, sale, preparation, cooking, and serving of foods, including fruits, vegetables, meat, poultry, seafood, shellfish, bones, rice, beans, pasta, bakery items, cheese, eggshells, and coffee grounds * Paper fibers: waxed cardboard, napkins, paper towels, uncoated paper plates, tea bags, coffee filters, wooden crates, and greasy pizza boxes * Wood waste: urban wood waste, woody debris from suburban land clearing, and rural forestry residuals 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Source Separated Organics」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
