Predominantly organic wastes can be effectively treated by
biological means to yield useful end products like methane gas as
fuel and digested slurry as soil conditioner. Inert materials like
plastics are effectively blended with other building materials,
thereby improving the quality of the finished product and at least
partially solving the problem of disposal of plastics. Inorganic
wastes are excellent candidates for recovery of reusable building
materials like sand and fine aggregate. Recycling of useful
components from e-wastes goes a long way in reducing environmental
pollution by toxic and hazardous wastes. This book places before
the reader different ways and means used by scientists and
engineers to minimize pollution of our natural resources and their
overexploitation.
