Is It Difficult To Dispose Tarps?
Well, the answer to the topic is not a straight one. Yes, canvas tarp and other heavy-duty tarps are easily disposed of. However, tarps like Plastic ones are not easily disposed of. It takes special machinery to recycle plastic tarps and use them again. Developing this machinery is very important for successful disposing of the tarps. In case the balance between the production of plastic and recycling disrupts then it can cause harm to nature.
Currently, the industry is
also facing similar challenges as because of covid-19, the Companies are unable
to recycle plastic. Also, plastic material is being widely used in
manufacturing PPE kits, masks, and other accessories. To understand why the
usage of plastic is increased gradually, let’s check out usage:
Used for Creating
Chambers: Cab drivers are using plastic tarps to create chambers between the
cars. As four chambers are created with minimum cross ventilation, all the
members have zero physical interaction. This helps in avoiding the spread of
covid-19 infection. However, tarps should not be used again and again
without proper sanitization. For sanitization, only at least 80% alcohol-based sanitizers
should be used.
For PPE Kits: Nowadays,
PPE kits are the only solution to provide treatment to the patients infected
with the Covid-19. That’s because the coronavirus is spread very quickly.
Accordingly, plastic in PPE kits protects from the virus.
Once the task is done, the
PPE kits are disposed of. However, no one knows if this disposal is secure or
not. That’s because the PPE kits end in landfills to avoid the spread of
covid-19. They’re not burnt, because the plastic emits harmful gases.
Accordingly, the only and best solution available is collecting the PPE kits at
a safe place and treating them with Sanitizers. Accordingly, the disposal of
plastic is secure. However, because of quickly rising cases, no one is right
now thinking about this.
For Transparent Walls: Shopkeepers
widely use plastic tarps for implementing virtual walls. That’s because, during
summers, they face direct sunlight which causes heating effects. Accordingly, the
air conditioners are neutralized. Now, wooden doors are not implemented because
customers can see through them. By implementing plastic tarps, the cool air is
trapped and customers easily see through them. Also, this protects the
shopkeepers from interacting with the customers directly. This is also an
innovative way used by Shopkeepers to avoid covid-19 and reduce the electricity
bills.
