商品描述

This book explores a diverse spectrum of waste materials, encompassing industrial hazardous and non-hazardous waste, agricultural waste, biomass waste, radioactive waste, municipal solid and liquid waste, as well as e-waste, and investigates their adverse impacts on the environment. It is an exciting exploration of various approaches to waste management, highlighting the importance of adopting sustainable practices such as the 7Rs principle, utilization of nanomaterials and photocatalysis, zero waste management techniques, recycling and upcycling techniques, and IoT-enabled strategies. It provides a critical assessment of the challenges and opportunities in transforming waste into value-added products for the industry. This book is designed to provide constructive insights for researchers, environmentalists, policy makers and professionals engaged in enhancing waste management, fuelling the circular economy, and paving the way for a sustainable future.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討了多樣化的廢棄物,包括工業危險和非危險廢棄物、農業廢棄物、生物質廢棄物、放射性廢棄物、市政固體和液體廢棄物,以及電子廢棄物,並研究它們對環境的不良影響。這是一次對廢棄物管理各種方法的激動人心的探索,強調採用可持續實踐的重要性,如7R原則、納米材料和光催化、零廢棄物管理技術、回收和升級技術,以及物聯網(IoT)技術。它對將廢棄物轉化為增值產品的挑戰和機遇進行了批判性評估,以滿足工業的需求。本書旨在為研究人員、環保人士、政策制定者和從事廢棄物管理、推動循環經濟、為可持續未來鋪平道路的專業人士提供建設性的見解。
