Japan was ahead of the rest of the world when it introduced
intermediate processing of municipal waste by such means as
incineration in the 1960s. Owing to the small land area of the
country and the difficulty in securing landfill sites, the
incineration ratio of municipal combustible waste had reached 100%
by the 1990s. Along with the landfill of incineration residues,
proprietary technologies such as high salt leachate treatment,
desalination treatment, by-product recycling, a focus on the
resource of incineration residues, sea surface landfill sites, and
covered type landfill sites have spread and developed since then.
This book describes the introduction of incineration facilities
starting in the 1960s, landfill technology, and issues arising
after 1990 following the introduction of the facilities. The
necessity of a total system from incineration to landfill is
explained as well. The volume is a valuable resource for countries
that plan to introduce intermediate processing such as incineration
and for countries that are developing a waste management policy.
