Waste
Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things. Though we try to imagine otherwise, waste is every object, plus time.Whatever else an object is, it’s also waste—or was, or will be.All that is needed is time or a change of sentiment or circumstance.Waste is not merely the field of discarded objects, but the name we give to our troubled relationship with the decaying world outside ourselves.Waste focuses on those waste objects that most fundamentally shape our lives and also attempts to understand our complicated emotional and intellectual relationships to our own refuse: nuclear waste, climate debris, pop-culture rubbish, digital detritus, and more. Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

What is the reaction equation for mashing in beer brewing?
The reaction equation for mashing in beer brewing involves the conversion of starches in the malted barley into fermentable sugars. This process is facilitated by enzymes present in the malt, such as amylase, which break down the starches into simpler sugars like maltose. The general equation for mashing can be represented as: Starches + Water + Enzymes → Sugars. This sugar-rich liquid, known as wort, is then boiled and fermented with yeast to produce beer.

Organic waste or residual waste?
Organic waste refers to biodegradable waste such as food scraps, yard waste, and paper products, which can be composted or converted into energy through anaerobic digestion. Residual waste, on the other hand, refers to non-recyclable and non-compostable waste that is typically sent to landfills or incinerated. When it comes to managing waste, it is important to prioritize the reduction and proper disposal of organic waste through composting and recycling, as it can have a more positive environmental impact compared to residual waste.
-
Does waste reduction go beyond waste recycling?
Yes, waste reduction goes beyond waste recycling. While recycling is an important part of waste management, waste reduction focuses on minimizing the amount of waste produced in the first place. This can be achieved through practices such as reducing packaging, reusing items, and implementing more sustainable production processes. By focusing on waste reduction, we can decrease the overall environmental impact of waste and move towards a more circular and sustainable economy.

Is it aluminum waste or plastic waste?
Without more specific information, it is impossible to determine whether the waste in question is aluminum or plastic. Both aluminum and plastic waste are common in many different forms, such as packaging, containers, and disposable items. To accurately identify the type of waste, it would be necessary to visually inspect the item or have more detailed information about its characteristics.

Zero-Waste : Reconsidering Waste Management for the Future
This book analyses ‘zero-waste’ (ZW) as an emerging waste management strategy for the future, which considers waste prevention through innovative design and sustainable consumption practices.Drawing on a diverse range of case studies from Australia, Bangladesh, Japan, New Zealand, Sweden, and the USA, this book explores why urban waste management systems still remain a major challenge for almost all cities around the world.Rejecting waste as an ‘end-of-life’ problem, Atiq Zaman and Tahmina Ahsan instead consider waste prevention through the ZW model, in which resources are utilized and consumed with minimum environmental degradation.In addition, the authors give extended discussion on why embracing the ZW concept will be beneficial for the circular economy (CE). Providing a strategic zero-waste framework and an evaluation tool to measure waste management performance aimed towards ZW goals, this book will be of great relevance to students, scholars, and policymakers with an interest in waste management, sustainable consumption, urban planning, and sustainable development.

Waste Tide
A Guardian Science Fiction Book of the Year. Mimi is drowning in the world's trash. She's a 'waste girl', a scavenger picking through towering heaps of hazardous electronic detritus.Along with thousands of other migrant workers, she was lured to Silicon Isle, off the southern coast of China, by the promise of steady work and a better life.But Silicon Isle is where the rotten fruits of capitalism and consumer culture come to their toxic end.The land is hopelessly polluted, the workers utterly at the mercy of those in power. And now a storm is gathering, as ruthless local gangs skirmish for control, eco-terrorists conspire, investors hunger for profit, and a Chinese-American interpreter searches for his roots.As these forces collide, conflict erupts – a war between rich and poor, a battle between past and future.Mimi must decide if she will remain a pawn... or change the rules of the game altogether. 'An accomplished eco-techno-thriller with heart and soul' DAVID MITCHELL. 'Waste Tide is a work of spoiled and toxic beauty...It's more than a timely eco-thriller; it's a dark mirror held up to our selves' SIMON INGS.

What is worse: packaging waste or food waste?
Both packaging waste and food waste have negative environmental impacts, but packaging waste may be considered worse in some ways. Packaging waste contributes to pollution and takes up space in landfills, and the production of packaging materials can also have a significant carbon footprint. On the other hand, food waste contributes to greenhouse gas emissions when it decomposes in landfills, and it also represents a waste of resources such as water and energy that were used to produce the food. Ultimately, both types of waste are concerning and efforts should be made to reduce both.

What are additional waste bags for residual waste?
Additional waste bags for residual waste are extra bags that can be used to contain any remaining non-recyclable waste that does not fit into the regular waste bin. These bags are typically used when there is an overflow of residual waste or when the regular waste bin is full. They are designed to be durable and leak-proof to prevent any spillage or mess. Additional waste bags for residual waste are an important tool for managing and disposing of non-recyclable waste in a sanitary and efficient manner.

How does fermentation work without yeast?
Fermentation can occur without yeast through the process of lactic acid fermentation. In this process, bacteria such as Lactobacillus convert sugars into lactic acid, which results in the sour taste of fermented foods like yogurt, sauerkraut, and kimchi. This type of fermentation is commonly used in the production of dairy products and pickled vegetables. While yeast is not involved in lactic acid fermentation, the process still allows for the preservation and transformation of food through the breakdown of sugars into acids.

Why does fermentation in beer brewing stall despite proper dehydration?
Fermentation in beer brewing can stall despite proper dehydration due to a variety of factors. One common reason is the presence of high levels of alcohol, which can inhibit the activity of yeast and slow down the fermentation process. Additionally, the temperature of the fermentation environment can impact the yeast's ability to function properly, leading to a stall in the fermentation process. Finally, the quality and health of the yeast used in the brewing process can also play a role in fermentation stalling, as stressed or unhealthy yeast may struggle to complete the fermentation process.
