Preface
Municipal waste consists of everyday items that we use and then throw away, such as
product packaging, grass clippings, furniture, clothing, bottles, food scraps,
newspapers, appliances, paint, and batteries, which comes from our homes, schools,
hospitals, and businesses. Industrial hazardous waste is waste from industrial
practices that causes a threat to human or environmental health. As waste generation
increases with population expansion and industrialization, waste disposal has become
a global challenge for both the developed and developing countries.
This book is a collection of recent research findings concerning different aspects of
waste disposal from both municipal and industrial sources. The chapters fall into the
following four sections: 1) Waste disposal site; 2) Nuclear waste disposal; 3) Municipal
waste disposal at different environments; and 4) Emissions related to waste disposal.
Each section consists of several papers providing detailed technical approaches and
research results.
The content of this book is suitable for researchers, engineers, scientists, and policy
makers who are interested in and involved in waste management and disposal. The
information would also be useful as supplemental course materials for students who
are majored in environmental sciences and engineering.
