This book is the third volume in a three-volume set on Solid Waste
Engineering and Management. It focuses on tourism industry waste,
rubber tire recycling, electrical and electronic wastes,
health-care waste, landfill leachate, bioreactor landfill, energy
recovery, innovative composting, biodrying, and health and safety
considerations pertaining to solid waste management.. The volumes
comprehensively discuss various contemporary issues associated with
solid waste pollution management, impacts on theenvironmental and
vulnerable human populations, and solutions to these problems.
This edited book has been designed to serve as a natural resources
engineering reference book as well as a supplemental textbook. This
volume is part of the Handbook of Environmental Engineering series,
an incredible collection of methodologies that study the effects of
pollution and waste in their three basic forms: gas, solid, and
liquid. It complements two other books in the series including
Environmental and Natural Resources Engineering and Integrated
Natural Resources Management that serve as a basis for advanced
study or specialized investigation of the theory and analysis of
various natural resources systems. This book covers the management
of many waste sources including those from agricultural livestock,
deep-wells, industries manufacturing dyes, and municipal solid
waste incinerators. The purpose of this book is to thoroughly
prepare the reader for understanding the sources, treatment and
control methods of toxic wastes shown to have harmful effects on
the environment. Chapters provide information on some of the most
innovative and ground-breaking advances in waste characterization,
control, treatment and management from a panel of esteemed experts.

This book is the second volume in a three-volume set on Solid
Waste Engineering and Management. It focuses on sustainability,
single waste stream processing, material recovery, plastic waste,
marine litter, sludge disposal, restaurant waste recycling,
sanitary landfills, landfill leachate collection, and
landfill aftercare as it pertains to solid waste
management. The volumes comprehensively discuss various
contemporary issues associated with solid waste pollution
management, impacts on the environment and vulnerable human
populations, and solutions to these problems.Â

This book is a sister volume to Volume 20 of the Handbook of
Environmental Engineering Series, "Integrated Natural Resources
Management", and expands on the themes of that volume by addressing
the conservation and protection of natural resources in an
environmental engineering context through state-of-the-art research
methodologies and technologies. With a focus on water and
wastewater treatment, the book takes a multidisciplinary approach
to provide readers with an understanding of developments in natural
resources technology over the last few decades, and how technology
and industry methods will progress to ensure cleaner and
sustainable methods of natural resources management. The key topics
covered include biological activated carbon treatment for recycling
biotreated wastewater, composting for food processing wastes,
treatment of wastewater from chemical industries, agricultural
waste as a low-cost adsorbent, and the invention, design and
construction of potable water dissolved air flotation and
filtration plants. The book will be useful to environmental
resources engineers, researchers, water treatment plant managers,
chemical engineers, industrial plant managers, and environmental
conservation agencies.
This book is the first volume in a three-volume set on Solid Waste
Engineering and Management. It provides an introduction to the
topic, and focuses on legislation, transportation, transfer
station, characterization, mechanical volume reduction,
measurement, combustion, incineration, composting, landfilling, and
systems planning as it pertains to solid waste management. The
three volumes comprehensively discuss various contemporary issues
associated with solid waste pollution management, impacts on the
environment and vulnerable human populations, and solutions to
these problems.
