Which of the following is NOT a source of collection of municipal solid waste?
-
A.
Waste from homes
-
B.
Radioactive waste
-
C.
Waste from hospitals
-
D.
Waste from schools
Correct Answer:
B. Radioactive waste
Explanation:
The correct answer is Radioactive waste. Municipal solid waste typically consists of everyday items discarded by the public, such as trash from households, schools, and hospitals. While these sources contribute to the general waste stream managed by municipalities, radioactive waste is classified as a hazardous material. Due to its potential health and environmental risks, radioactive waste requires specialized handling, storage, and disposal procedures that are distinct from standard municipal waste management systems. Therefore, it is not considered a source of municipal solid waste.
