The work provides a comprehensive examination of techniques and challenges that underpin the effective processing and long-term utilisation of advanced materials. Covering the broad range of topics from laser and electrical discharge machining, tribological behaviour of materials like friction or wear mechanisms in composites it presents as well case studies in the aerospace and automotive industries and bioengineering applications.

The solar boom sweeping the world holds both promise and peril. Although solar PV panels provide a revolution in energy production, it is their end-of-life that poses a serious challenge. This book, Sustainable Management of Solar PV Panel Waste, addresses several aspects of this concern. It assesses the environmental degradation over the entire lifecycle of solar panels, from manufacturing to disposal. Readers will encounter new waste management approaches, explore key policy frameworks, and learn about urban technologies capable of resource recovery.This book should be mandatory reading for researchers, policy-makers and industry professionals who want to reduce the environmental impacts of solar energy and create a truly sustainable solar future.
