What are the signs of classified trash cans?

Represent respectively: hazardous waste, recyclables, kitchenware Remaining garbage and other garbage.

Let’s clearly explain the main symbols of garbage classification. Generally, it can be divided into 4 major categories:

1. Recyclable garbage usually has three curved arrows forming one. Triangle, the corresponding garbage types mainly include waste paper, glass bottles, plastic beverage bottles, metal utensils, straws, packaging boxes, cloth and other types of garbage. It can be seen that our common beverage bottles, beer bottles, express packaging, etc. are typical recyclable waste, and they are also the types that are used in large quantities in our daily lives.

2. Kitchen waste. The food waste symbol is composed of a fruit core, a fish bone and half an egg shell. It is easy to understand that it is part of the food we eat or do not eat. . For a long time in the past, we were used to throwing leftovers, fruit peels, picked vegetable leaves and other kitchen waste into the trash can. Now according to the new requirements, these garbage need to be stored in a separate trash can. Garbage can be naturally degraded and usually contains a certain proportion of moisture. Therefore, it generally needs to be processed separately. This kind of treatment may reuse kitchen waste, such as making fertilizers, etc., which is also a Nice garbage disposal model.

3. Hazardous waste. The hazardous waste that we think of most should be batteries. It is more convenient to understand it this way. The identification symbol of hazardous waste is a small sapling plus an "X", which means related hazardous waste. It is harmful to plants and also harmful to human body. In fact, there are many harmful wastes that are products that we use frequently every day, such as mobile phones and other digital electronic products, light bulbs, expired medicines, mercury-containing thermometers, paint buckets, etc., all of which are harmful to plants. It has a destructive effect on the human body and the natural environment, so this kind of garbage needs special methods to handle, and naturally it should be classified separately.

4. For other garbage, the symbol is a triangle with a double arrow pointing downward at the bottom, indicating that the harm of this kind of garbage is relatively small, such as our common muck, discarded tiles, etc., which can be naturally For landfill processing, the downward arrow also has this meaning.

After our explanation of the four common garbage classification signs above, I believe it will be helpful to everyone. When judging the classification of trash cans, as long as we identify these identification signs, they are usually You can't make a mistake. However, in residential areas, public streets, shopping malls and other places, the types of trash can classification signs are slightly different.
