Advanced Zero Waste Tools: Present and Emerging Waste Management Practices, Volume One in the Concepts of Advanced Zero Waste Tools series addresses the fundamental principles of zero waste that encourages the redesign of resource lifecycles so that products are reused. By promoting reuse and recycling, as well as prevention and product designs that consider the entire product lifecycle, the zero waste philosophy advocates for sustainability and environmental management and protection. This book takes the first step toward addressing the tools needed to implement zero waste, both on a practical and conceptual scale. In addition to environmental and engineering principles, the book also covers economic, toxicologic and regulatory issues, making it an important resource for researchers, engineers and policymakers working toward environmental sustainability. - Uses fundamental, interdisciplinary and state-of-the-art coverage of zero waste research to provide an integrated approach to tools, methodology and indicators - Covers current challenges, design and manufacturing technology, and sustainability applications - Includes up-to-date references and web resources at the end of each chapter, as well as a webpage dedicated to providing supplementary information
Municipal Solid, Agricultural, and Mining Waste in Sub-Saharan Africa

The book seeks to cover the application of the principles of the circular economy within the context of the processing and waste management industry in sub-Saharan Africa. It includes topics related to the circular economy and the sustainable use of resources in the mining, process industry, and waste management sectors, and examines how some resources from these sectors, currently treated as “waste”, can be converted into secondary resources that can help drive economic development. Features: Describes fundamental environmental and process engineering principles to understand waste valorization technologies. Covers sustainable solid waste management and recovery of resources from solid waste from an African perspective. Provides guidelines for specific approaches to long-term sustainable waste management. Includes alternative waste treatment technologies in order of priority as per the waste hierarchy. Introduces pertinent industry-specific case studies, worked examples, and problems. This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in environmental and chemical engineering and waste treatment.
