Zero Waste: Management Practices for Environmental Sustainability
presents approaches for resource management centered on reducing
waste and reusing and recycling materials. It aims to save energy
by reducing energy consumption associated with extracting,
processing, and transporting raw materials and waste, and also to
reduce and eventually eliminate the need for landfills and
incinerators. This book presents the various principles, methods,
and tools that can be used to address different issues in the areas
of industrial waste reduction and sustainability. It examines how
to eliminate waste at the source and at all points of a supply
chain, and how to shift from the current one-way linear resource
model to a sustainable "closed-loop" system. Proposes strategies
for businesses to reduce and reuse waste with a goal of reaching a
zero waste status. Focuses on how mitigating waste and promoting
recycling can save vast amounts of energy. Explains how the zero
waste approach would be a key measure to ensure environmental
sustainability and help to offset global climate change.
