About this book

Gain the knowledge you need to address the growing and increasingly intricate problem of controlling and processing the refuse created by global urban societies with SOLID WASTE ENGINEERING: A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE, 3E. While the authors prepare you to deal with issues, such as regulations and legislation, the main emphasis throughout the book is on mastering solid waste engineering principles. The book first explains the basic principles of the field and then demonstrates through worked examples how you can apply these principles in real world settings. Whether you are a graduate or advanced undergraduate student, or practicing engineer, you learn to think reflectively and logically about the problems and solutions in today's solid waste engineering.
