About this book

The book "Waste Management" discusses effective methods to prevent environmental pollution. It addresses various categories of waste, including urban center (such as institutional, residential and commercial), agronomic and special (such as construction and demolition, domestic hazardous, sewage sludge and non-hazardous industrial) waste. It also describes various management case studies that can be applied outside of the particular site of the case study. The book also lists waste management strategies, such as; minimization, recycling and reuse, storage, collection, transportation and transfer, treatment (mechanical, biological, chemical and thermal) and landfill disposal. This book mentions waste disposal as a legal requirement for most countries around the globe.
