Solving Waste Disposal Issue Using Blockchain
In some countries, waste disposal is much easier than in others. The reason for this is that some countries simply have more surface area while others are island nations with limited places where they can store household waste. Consequently, there is a need to find a lasting solution for waste management that does not use up valuable land.
Even in large countries, the problems of centralized waste disposal cannot be ignored. For instance, disposing of waste in landfills creates huge problems for the environment. Some of the waste produces harmful chemicals that eventually find their way into the ecosystem. Another issue with modern landfills is that once a landfill is full, it is usually covered with clay and plastic.
The goal of this procedure is to prevent aerobic decomposition. However, the resultant process, starved of oxygen, usually generates methane. The methane generated is one of the leading contributors to the greenhouse effect, which causes climate change. A proper waste management system would need to manage landfill use to eliminate the effects of climate change caused by methane generation.
WaCo Waste Trace System (WTS)
The Waste Trace System (WTS) is an important cog in the WaCo Ecosystem. It helps consumers to specify the waste they generate. Primarily, consumers can use the WTS to indicate:
- The type of waste- whether it is plastic, paper, metal, etc.
- The quantity of the waste- volume or weight
- The date and location where it was disposed
- The distribution of the type of waste – it could be generic plastic, food-grade plastic, steel, or aluminum
- The brand and product of the disposed waste
Through the WTS, some data is gleaned from consumers automatically. For instance, the date and location can be obtained automatically via a smartwatch, GPS, or smartphone. Other information needed from the consumer will have to be keyed in manually via the WaCo app. There is also the option to attach a photo to certify their contribution to the WaCo ecosystem. All the data provided by the consumers will be stored and distributed using the blockchain developed by WaCo.
