Críticas:

"World population increase and increasing urbanization have resulted in various negative effects for society, such as the rising demand for food and the production of large amounts of animal and human wastes. . . . Many inorganic by-products and wastes also result from human activities. The disposal of these residues has become an increasing problem. . . . Utilization of these materials in agriculture . . . may offer economic advantages while meliorating the possible harmful effects. . . . In addition to the introductory overview, the book comprises three sections concerning various factors affecting the use of such materials as municipal biosolids, organic by-products and wastes, and inorganic materials. . . . As a conclusion, the book should be useful to research, students, government regulators, policy makers, and the general public concerned with agriculture, recycling of wastes, and environmental quality."--Cellulose Chemistry and Technology
