The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Select the incorrect match," we need to analyze each option provided and determine which one contains incorrect information. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Matches:** - The question presents four matches related to waste management processes. We need to evaluate each one to find the incorrect match. 2. **Evaluate the First Match: Incinerator** - The description states that incineration involves anaerobic burning at temperatures between 900 to 1200 degrees Celsius. - **Analysis:** Incineration is indeed a process that involves burning waste at high temperatures, typically in the presence of oxygen (aerobic burning). Therefore, this description is incorrect as it states anaerobic burning. 3. **Evaluate the Second Match: Pyrolysis** - The description states that pyrolysis involves aerobic burning at 1600 degrees Celsius. - **Analysis:** Pyrolysis is a thermal decomposition process that occurs in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic) and at lower temperatures, typically between 310 to 540 degrees Celsius. Therefore, this match is also incorrect. 4. **Evaluate the Third Match: Sanitary Landfills** - The description states that sanitary landfills deal with solid waste. - **Analysis:** This is correct as sanitary landfills are designed for the disposal of solid waste. 5. **Evaluate the Fourth Match: Poly Blend** - The description states that poly blend involves the recycling of modified plastic. - **Analysis:** This is also correct, as poly blend refers to a process of recycling plastics. 6. **Identify the Incorrect Match:** - From the evaluations, we see that both the first and second matches are incorrect. However, since the question asks for a single incorrect match, we can conclude that the second match (Pyrolysis) is the most commonly misunderstood and is often cited incorrectly in educational contexts. ### Conclusion: The incorrect match is the second one: **Pyrolysis - aerobic burning at 1600 degrees Celsius.** ---
