Waste management is the systematic processes involved in the collection, transportation, treatment, and final disposal of waste, with the goal of reducing its environmental and health impacts. It involves the management of various types of waste, including solid, liquid, and gaseous, each of which requires specific handling and disposal strategies. The primary sources of waste are industrial activities and households, which generate both chemical and biological waste. Effective waste management seeks to minimize the detrimental effects of waste on human health and the environment. Common disposal methods, such as landfilling and incineration, are widely used, but recycling and waste reuse are also central to contemporary waste management strategies. Recycling involves the recovery and reprocessing of waste materials, while reuse includes processes such as biological reprocessing, energy recovery, and pyrolysis. The book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of waste management. It outlines the processes and applications of the field in detail. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.
