Integrating Waste Management Strategy

Waste management is all too commonly seen in the context of isolated, small scale or local activities. Integrating Waste Management Strategy presents a philosophy that the effective management of waste is both case specific and fits into a wider scheme. The author provides robust solutions to problems relating to solid waste, sludges, liquid and gas waste streams, at the same time highlighting key issues and allowing the reader to develop a contextual solution and minimise environmental harm. The book covers the crucial social, political and aesthetic contexts and impacts of waste, as well as the relevance of LCA, BPEO and the relationship between environmental issues and the economics of industry. Integrating Waste Management Strategy is an essential read for all those in the waste management sector.
