Features:
- Describes fundamental environmental and process engineering principles to understand waste valorization technologies.
- Covers sustainable solid waste management and recovery of resources from solid waste from an African perspective.
- Provides guidelines for specific approaches to long-term sustainable waste management.
- Includes alternative waste treatment technologies in order of priority as per the waste hierarchy.
- Introduces pertinent industry-specific case studies, worked examples, and problems.
This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in environmental and chemical engineering and waste treatment.
