Overview

Environmental Materials and Waste: Circular Economy and Pollution Abatement, Second Edition contains the latest information on environmental sustainability as a wide variety of natural resources are increasingly being exploited. The book takes a multidisciplinary approach to fully realize the number of by-products which can be remanufactured, providing the foundation needed across disciplines to tackle this issue. This updated edition includes operational principles of circular economy for sustainable development with reference to environmental waste. Although circular systems are now being implemented, it also emphasizes the importance to properly consider and convert circular economy goals and principles into actions. Circular economy research is discussed in-depth as it has gained considerable momentum in the scientific literature thus far, and both conceptual debates and the creation of useful implementation strategies are still in their infancy. As a whole, this book covers a wide range of issues that must be covered in order to improve environmental sustainability.
