Waste should be disposed of properly to minimize damage to the environment.
The word residue (originating in the Latin residŭum ) describes material that loses usefulness after having fulfilled its mission or served to carry out a certain job. The concept is used as a synonym for garbage because it refers to the waste that man has produced.
For example: "We ask tourists to collect their waste and not dirty the beaches" , "The city no longer knows what to do with the tons of waste generated by its inhabitants" , "The teacher taught me that it is very important to recycle." waste to help the environment» , «The guard challenged me because I threw the waste on the ground» .
Waste recovery
A waste, the theory says, is any element that is considered waste that must be eliminated . It is assumed, therefore, that the waste has no economic value.
Although waste is usually accumulated in landfills or buried so that the decomposition process is completed there without affecting the environment, in recent years recycling has advanced, which consists of recovering waste to transform it into an object with new life. useful. When an individual throws away a plastic bottle, said container can decompose and generate environmental pollution , or be recycled through a treatment that allows the material to be used again.
Reducing the amount of waste is necessary to protect the planet.
Classification according to type
When talking about waste as a synonym for garbage, we must emphasize the fact that there are various classifications for it. Thus, taking as a pillar what is its origin and provenance, we find the fact that waste can be domestic, commercial, industrial, hospital or urban.
In the event that the aspect taken into account is the composition of the garbage, the aforementioned can be categorized into:
Organic waste. They are those that are composed of waste of biological origin.
Inorganic waste, which does not have a biological origin but rather an industrial or artificial one.
Hazardous waste. Corrosive chemical substances, acids or radioactive waste are some of the waste that is included in this typology and that must be treated with special care as they can seriously endanger the health of citizens.
To this aforementioned classification a fourth type of waste should be added, which is what is called a mixture. As its name indicates, it is characterized because it is the result of the combination of several types of garbage.
Idea of remainder in mathematics
For mathematics , remainder is a concept that identifies the remainder that is obtained after dividing the set of integers into two figures . This is the digit that results from the difference between the dividend and the product of the divisors and the quotients. That is to say: Remainder = Dividend – (Divisor x Quotient) .
If the division operation concludes with a remainder equal to zero, it is considered an exact division. On the other hand, if the remainder is different from zero, the division is inexact .
Another use of the notion
Likewise, to all of the above, we have to add the existence of an expression that uses the term we are analyzing. This is residue of power .
With this concept, what is referred to is the set of attributions, powers or matters that the autonomies of a country do not attribute either to the central government or to the government of the relevant region.
