An effective waste management process includes waste segregation at the source, collection, transportation, processing of the feedstock, treatment, and final disposal of unrecoverable materials. Waste operators and recyclers encompass waste pickers, licensed waste collection companies, waste aggregators, and entities involved in refurbishing, repairing, and repurposing products. These stakeholders receive funds from a Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO) for their services throughout the waste management value chain.
