Beskrivning

Sustainability in Waste Management: An Engineering Perspective presents a comprehensive framework for integrating environmental engineering, renewable energy, digital innovation, and circular economy principles into modern waste management. The book blends theory with real-world applications, drawing insights from diverse regions, including both developed and developing countries. Sections covers core concepts such as waste classification, characterization, landfilling, and decentralized wastewater treatment, resource recovery from organic, biomedical, and food waste, renewable-powered systems such as solar dryers and PV-based waste handling, and emerging technologies like hydrogen production, energy storage, carbon capture, and AI-enabled waste monitoring.

The book aligns with key global targets such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) particularly SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), and SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities). Intended for engineers, researchers, urban planners, and policymakers, this book offers scalable, adaptable, and technically sound solutions to modern waste challenges.

Merges concepts from environmental engineering, renewable energy, material science, and digital technologies (AI, IoT) to present unified solutions
Designed with clear sub-sections covering theory, process mechanisms, technologies, and case studies
Features international case studies, technology comparisons, and policy insights, linking local actions to global sustainability goals (SDG 6, 7, and 11)
