This book consolidates and summarizes smart technologies like IoT, edge computing, and AI used in different aspects of waste material management, mitigation, and recycling for a sustainable environment. One of the cases explains how IoT-based systems and wireless sensors can be used to continuously detect common pollutants such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon monoxide, and particulate matter (PM) and how the data collected are used to assess the overall air quality and determine actions for improvements. A collection of practical case studies, this book provides a comprehensive knowledge in smart waste management to readers in universities, research centers, and industries.

Determination of formaldehyde emission from different types of wood-based panels using different standard test methods. studying the effect of board coating and thickness on the formaldehyde emission as well as the effect of different types of formaldehyde-based resins. Evaluation of inter-laboratory comparison of formaldehyde release from particleboard. Determination of the relationships between different methods and estimation the relationships between some of formaldehyde values determined in the present work and the international standard limitation using the conversion factor equations, which have been developed by the literature.
