"With specialized and succinct coverage, this book provides readers with an integrated overview of various waste treatment technologies and related issues. Instead of dealing separately with each type of waste material, the book summarizes important waste treatments from a holistic perspective. This guidebook is written for early career professionals, non-specialists, and specialists seeking to understand waste and its proper management and disposal techniques"--
