This title includes a number of Open Access chapters. The
twenty-first century world faces several enormous challenges: how
to mitigate climate change, meet a growing energy demand without
relying on fossil fuels, and manage the escalating quantities of
solid waste generated by cities around the world. This compendium
volume offers a viable solution to all three: using solid waste as
a renewable resource. Intended for a wide audience ranging from
engineers and academics to decision-makers in both the public and
private sectors, this volume has gathered together research into a
range of technologies and methodologies. The editors, two
well-published researchers at the top of their field, have selected
articles that lay the foundation for this discussion. They have
then included chapters for the following waste management
scenarios: anaerobic digestion, composting, pyrolysis and chemical
upgrading, incineration and carbonization, and gasification.
Research has been included from around the world, representing
potential international solutions to what are global challenges, as
well as crucial implications for ongoing research in this important
field of study.
