What's the use of sand on the hotel dustbin?

The sand on the trash can in the hotel is used to put out cigarettes. The name of this trash can is called the floor trash can.

The design of the ash hopper on the floor is mainly divided into two parts: the main body and the top. The main body is used to throw garbage, and its general shape is cuboid, cylinder and fan. There are two kinds of tops, one is directly embedded in the top of the main body, which can separate a small groove; The other is to fix a circular tray on the main body, made of stainless steel, glass, granite, iron and other materials, with white sand and stones piled on it, which is used to deal with sticky things such as soot, cigarette butts or chewing gum.

The new standard adjusts the categories of domestic waste into four categories: recyclables, harmful waste, kitchen waste and other wastes, and deletes three categories: bulky waste, combustible waste and compostable waste. Because this standard is recommended and not mandatory, some cities (such as Shanghai) will not change their names and classification standards for the time being.
