This book provides the reader with topical applications of innovative tools for better solid and hazardous waste management. Separate sections have been compiled for both traditional and new solid waste categories with examples and case studies in all of them. Various physical, chemical and biological processes can be used for segregation and treatment of these wastes and some advanced methods are covered in this book. Advances in laboratory analytical methods, mathematical tools, remote sensing and GIS have been successfully applied to finding solutions to many problems in this field.
