Description

Product Description Waste Management and Planning presents a comprehensive selection of leading papers covering four main aspects of waste management: the waste problem, evaluation of waste management options, economic instruments and legislation and policy. Part I examines the technical aspects of waste management, such as waste generation, composition, management options and technologies. Part II discusses the evaluation of waste management options and includes papers on lifecycle assessment, multicriteria evaluation, and economic assessments. Part III focuses on economic instruments, packing policies, virgin material taxes and unit pricing. Part IV includes papers on public participation, waste facility siting and waste policy and legislation in the US, Europe and Tanzania. This volume will be an invaluable source of reference for waste management students and practitioners, and environmentalists, students and all those interested in waste management issues. Review 'This book presents an overview of many relatively recent developments in the research around waste management and planning, including waste prevention and recycling. As such it presents a good introduction to students or new researchers in the field, and helps to determine directions for their research. It is also a suitable reference book for people in the field . . . the book contains a nice overview of important directions in waste management from a wide geographic and disciplinary background. It will benefit students in the field and may be helpful to select reading material for students. It may also provide policymakers with information on scientific research from a diverse background in an easy to access format.' -- Ernst Worrell, Resources, Conservation and Recycling About the Author Edited by Jane C.
