Answer 1

I would pose your questions to waste management...they sponsor this group, they gave me information to use for a report when i was in high school (10 years ago), and they would be able to give you links probably...

good luck!

Answer 2

OH MY GOD I JUST POSTED THE SAME ANSWER LIKE TWICE MAN!!! check your other questions.

Answer 3

Okay, if this were MY assignment I would do MY OWN homework.  That, or I would ask the instructor for an extension on the project/essay.  Most instructors are more than happy to help if you're a decent student and have a legitimate reason for either forgetting the assignment, or needing help on the assignment.

Answer 4

Contact someone teacher or professor in this regard. No one can reply your question.

Answer 5

Your questions demonstrate a problem. What does it mean to be a common waste? Is a waste common when all industries have it? Or do we mean it is the waste with the highest total poundage? regardless of being common to all?

Do you want to consider it waste if the waste is being recovered, recycled?

For an example of the application of these distinctions, Water is the waste found  from most industries... it could be universal, it could be the total largest pounds wasted. But, if we do not want to consider materials that are ever being recycled, water is out of consideration.

Farmyard manure is a very high poundage, but by far not common to all industries. It is partially recycled, but partially non-recycled, it has a commercial value, yet some people pay to have it hauled away.

Water and manure are also domestic waste materials, common to all homes, large poundage, and partially recovered or recycled. But recycling for domestic manure is not as widespread as for farm manure.

A large part of domestic waste is paper and plastics...very widespread, almost common, a lot of recycling.
