Inhaltsangabe

Hazardous Waste Management: An Overview of Advanced and Cost-Effective Solutions includes the latest practical knowledge and theoretical concepts for the treatment of hazardous wastes. The book covers five major themes, namely, ecological impact, waste management hierarchy, hazardous waste characteristics and regulations, hazardous wastes management, and future scope of hazardous waste management. It serves as a comprehensive and advanced reference for undergraduate students, researchers and practitioners in the field of hazardous wastes and focuses on the latest emerging research in the management of hazardous waste, the direction in which this branch is developing as well as future prospects.

The book deals with all these components in-depth, however, particular attention is given to management techniques and cost-effective, economically feasible solutions for hazardous wastes released from various sources.

• Comprehensively explores the impact of hazardous wastes on human health and ecosystems
• Discusses toxicity across solid waste, aquatic food chain and airborne diseases
• Categorically elaborates waste treatment and management procedures with current challenges
• Discusses future challenges and the importance of renewing technologies

Pardeep Singh is Professor and Head at the School of Advanced Chemical Sciences, Shoolini University, Solan, India. He is specialized in physical chemistry and heads a lab of research scholars who work on photocatalysis with the aim of generating new knowledge on graphene-based photocatalytic materials and processes to develop novel de-pollution treatments with enhanced efficiency and pilot-scale applicability. He is also exploring the generation of bio-waste material-based activated carbon for adsorption-based removal of aqueous phase pollutants.

Professor Daniel A. Vallero is a renowned environmental scientist and engineer with four decades of experience. He has advised U.S. government agencies on critical issues like PBTs, climate change, acid rain, and chemical risks. At Duke University, he led the Engineering Ethics program and taught courses on air pollution, sustainable design, and ethics. Vallero has served on the National Academy of Engineering’s Online Ethics Committee and the National Institute of Engineering Ethics. An expert in emerging technologies, he focuses on societal, ethical, and public health challenges related to nanotechnology and environmental biotechnology. His work also encompasses emergency response and homeland security, making him a leading voice in environmental risk and ethics.
