This book focuses on sustainable solid waste management in an urban context and gives an example of how a modern city can work with waste management for increased sustainability in close cooperation with the academy. The book describes challenges which the city is facing and presents a case on how these can be tackled based on several research and development projects performed in the City of Malmö over the last decade. In these projects, the city has worked as a test bed for new solutions, developed with and evaluated by the university. The projects and evaluations of the same have been developed with a multi-dimensional approach; including technical aspects, resource efficiency, economic parameters, information strategies towards households and user friendliness. Methods used for evaluation are presented in a comprehensive way together with a discussion on how results from performed evaluations have affected the solid waste management policy making in the city. The book describes a bridging over a commonly noticed gap between research on the one hand and policy making and technical management on the other. Several examples are given on how academy and real life and full-scale developments in the city can have a fruit-full collaboration, where feed-back from evaluation of made changes are used for continuous improvements – at the same time as the actual needs from the city forces the academy to develop new methods for evaluations and develop new solutions to previously un-known or un-addressed problems.

This thesis studies household waste prevention from a social science perspective. Swedish waste management is efficient in handling waste but has not succeeded in reducing its quantities, even though the issue of waste prevention is being raised at both international and national levels. The aim of this thesis is to study and analyse the practice of household waste prevention. I seek to understand and explain how it may be possible for households in their everyday to reduce that waste. With understanding comes an aspiration to mitigate whatever impedes households from reducing their waste. A second aim is therefore to apply these new understandings and make policy suggestions as to how household waste prevention can be promoted and supported. My research questions are: • How is everyday household waste prevention as a practice narrated and discussed? And how can this practice and the activities in it be understood in connection with social structures? • What obstacles and opportunities do households experience in connection with the practice of everyday waste prevention? • What policy suggestions can be drawn from these findings?
