English term or phrase: Sewer and Drain blacks
RECYCLING AND WASTE REDUCTION
This sector covers activities related to solid waste and wastewater management, treatment, and reduction, as well as processing recyclable materials. It covers different sub sectors:
• Water purification and water treatment systems & services
• Biodegradable bags
• Waste collection equipment and facilities (see example in the context box 6.5).
• Air and water-purification systems & products
• Sewer and Drain blacks
• Refuse collection
• Water purification-equipment and installations
• Asbestos remediation and decommissioning
• Recycling: plastic, aluminum, paper and wet. Everything starts with the collection of waste materials. But you have to flip the concept of waste. Products that have been used are not always to be thrown away, but instead constitute resources and, if they are recovered, they can give rise to new assets, thus extending their life cycle and significantly reducing their environmental impact. They can be recycled raw materials, semi-finished products or waste coming from houses or industries. The positive effects are obvious: prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of raw materials and reduce the energy consumption with a consequent lowering of greenhouse gas emissions and pollution (see example in the context box 6.6).
