Description
Recent Trends in Solid Waste Management presents comprehensive information on recent advances in solid waste treatment and management processes. The book covers a wide range of topics related to solid waste treatment, disposal and handling. Readers will also learn about up-to-date/background information on global annual solid waste generation and effective waste management strategies (recycle, reuse, remediate). Furthermore, future study directions (open questions) are identified. This book will assist both the academic and industrial communities by providing extensive information on waste separation procedures and technologies for solid waste treatment.
