The paper materials that get collected are eventually recycled and subsequently reused. The rest of the waste from institutions follows the usual waste flow into composting plants in the case of biodegradable materials, animal feed processors in the case of food waste, MRFs and recycling plants in the case of dry recyclables and e-waste, and treatment or disposal in the case of hazardous materials.

Waste generated at institutions consists mainly of paper products used for office operations. Currently, blank pages are used for printing draft reports and as notepads.

Residual materials from MRFs and hazardous materials can be used as refuse-derived fuel (RDF) for power plants, once they have undergone treatment. They can also be used as aggregate, or disposed of in sanitary landfills.

Reuse in commercial establishments is likely to be limited to paperproducts and packaging materials, since previously used glass and metal containers must meet stringent quality and sanitation standards. Any remaining dry recyclables and special waste, including e-waste, undergo final sorting and segregation for sale to recycling facilities.

Commercial establishments such restaurants, grocery stores, hotels, and markets primarily generate food waste that can be processed into animal feed or soil conditioners in composting plants. Food waste in high-income countries is collected and processed into animal feed known as Ecofeed in Japan and Singapore.

Segregated food waste can be brought to either composting plants or facilities that process these materials into animal feed. As with residential waste, ash from incineration plants and residuals from MRFs can be used as aggregates or as ingredients in the production of glass or ceramic items.

The industrial sector generates mainly special and hazardous wastes which are collected and ultimately disposed of at treatment facilities, WTE plants, or sanitary landfills. Packaging materials and some housekeeping waste can be reused directly at source. The remainder, including e-waste, is collected and brought to MRFs for final segregation before being sold to recycling facilities.

TOD involves a package of measures that both eliminate trips and reduce trip length. A cornerstone of any TOD project is the development of commercial and residential property investment around public transport stations. Investment from TOD initiatives can be used to finance the public transport system itself.

Recently, particular attention has been paid to the role that transit oriented development (TOD) can play in both promoting sustainable urban form as well as providing a financing mechanism for implementation.
