Municipal Solid Waste Management: Strategies and Technologies for Sustainable Solutions

Editat de Christian Ludwig, Stefanie Hellweg, Samuel Stucki
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 oct 2002
The environmental impact of traditional waste management practice has become a central concern in industrialized countries. The past decades have seen a dramatic development in the technology for reducing air pollution caused by incineration as stipulated by clean air policies in industrialized countries. Toxic and/or valuable and rare elements are still dispersed into the environment under current practice for the disposal of treated or untreated waste materials. This book results from the discussion among scientists, engineers and authorities; and hopes to contribute towards the implementation of future sustainable waste management practices.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

The way municipal solid waste is handled greatly determines its impact on the local as well as the global environment. New technologies have emerged for the treatment of waste, for the recovery of raw materials and energy, and for safe final disposal. The environmental performance of technologies, their social acceptance and their economic viability are key issues to be considered in sustainable waste management. This book provides an overview of current practices in waste management and a synthesis of new developments achieved through interdisciplinary discussions of recent research results.

Caracteristici

Considers the "integrated view" The focus on "Directing Material Fluxes" takes into account that waste management will no longer be limited to the end of pipe solutions but is part of the management of material fluxes
