Passage:
In recent years, several municipal corporations have introduced decentralized composting centers to process organic waste at the neighborhood level. By treating biodegradable waste near its point of generation, these centers significantly reduce the volume of municipal solid waste requiring transport to distant landfills. Consequently, local municipal authorities have reported a marked reduction in fuel expenditure for heavy waste-haulage vehicles. Furthermore, localized processing prevents the accumulation of unsegregated waste at central transfer stations, leading to a measurable decline in health hazards in surrounding residential areas.
Based on the passage above, which of the following logical deductions MUST be true?
- Processing organic waste near its point of generation leads to lower fuel costs associated with long-distance waste haulage.Cevap
- BDecentralized composting centers are the most economical waste management model for eliminating all municipal health hazards.
- CCentralized waste transfer stations will soon be completely phased out across all urban zones.
- DMunicipal authorities have completely stopped operating heavy waste-haulage vehicles following the introduction of neighborhood composting.
Cevap
Processing organic waste near its point of generation leads to lower fuel costs associated with long-distance waste haulage.
The correct answer is a direct and necessary deduction from the passage facts: local treatment reduces transport volume to distant landfills, which directly results in lower fuel costs for haulage vehicles.
