| book description |

This book examines innovative strategies for managing and treating waste at the end of its life cycle, including landfilling and waste incineration. It addresses various types of solid waste, their causes and impacts, and the technologies designed to minimize and repurpose them. This approach, commonly known as materials management, aims to comprehensively analyze how materials are handled before resorting to conventional waste-disposal methods. The book highlights the importance of converting waste into energy, biofuels, and compost, while emphasizing source reduction and extended producer responsibility. The ultimate goal is to manage materials across the entire economy at every stage of their life cycle, covering all phases of material and product production, from raw material extraction, design, and manufacturing to transportation and consumer use. Additionally, it discusses reuse, recycling, and final disposal practices.
