Description

Waste are unwanted or unusable materials. Waste is any substance discarded after primary use, or is worthless, defective and of no use. A by-product, by contrast is a joint product of relatively minor economic value. A waste product may become a by-product, joint product or resource through an invention that raises a waste product's value above zero.

अपशिष्ट (waste) का शाब्दिक अर्थ 'आवंछित', 'अनुपयोगी', 'वर्ज्य', या 'कचरा' है। किसी भी पदार्थ का प्राथमिक उपयोग करने या होने के बाद जो शेष बचता है, उसे अपशिष्ट या अवांछित पदार्थ कहा जाता है। उदाहरण के लिए नगरपालिका, जल अपशिष्ट, रेडियोधर्मी अपशिष्ट इत्यादि । वैसे तो कोई भी वस्तु 'बेकार' नहीं होती, उसे सही जगह पर उपयोग करने या सही प्रक्रिया से गुजारने पर वह भी किसी उपयोग में आ जाती है। अर्थात् जो चीज एक जगह 'कचरा' या 'वर्ज्य' है, किन्तु दूसरी जगह उपयोगी हो सकती है।
