Question

Identify the process of waste disposal shown through a flowchart given below:

Options

• Sanitary Landfill

• Incineration

• Open dumping

• Mulching

Answer 1

Incineration

Explanation:

Incineration is the process of burning waste at high temperatures. When waste is burned, it produces heat and leaves behind ashes, as shown in the flowchart. The remaining ash may produce leachate, which is collected safely. This method reduces waste volume and can also generate energy.
