Sustainable waste management is a complex issue that is of increasing concern in developing countries. In these countries, waste management often faces significant challenges due to factors such as inadequate infrastructure, lack of funding and resources, and limited public awareness of the importance of waste management. However, there are also significant opportunities to improve waste management practices and create a more sustainable future. One of the major challenges of waste management in developing countries is inadequate infrastructure. Many developing countries lack the necessary infrastructure to properly manage waste, including landfills, recycling facilities, and waste treatment plants. This leads to significant environmental and health problems, including water pollution, soil contamination, and the spread of disease. This book is an essential resource for researchers and students studying solid waste management, waste valorization, biorefineries, biofuels/products/processes, as well as for geo-environmental engineers, biochemical/chemical engineers, and biotechnologists working in industries and government agencies, policymakers, conservationists, NGOs working for environment protection, etc. The authors are thankful to the contributors of these books for their cooperation and patience in the compilation of this task. The authors are also thankful to Springer team, for their constant support in the publication of this work.Environmental Science and Engineering,1863-5539Refuse and refuse disposalEnergy policyEnergy policyPublic healthPsychologyWaste Management/Waste TechnologyEnergy Policy, Economics and ManagementPublic HealthBehavioral Sciences and PsychologyRefuse and refuse disposal.Energy policy.Energy policy.Public health.Psychology.Waste Management/Waste Technology.Energy Policy, Economics and Management.Public Health.Behavioral Sciences and Psychology.363.728628.4Mandpe Ashootosh1833316Paliya Sonam1833317Shah Maulin P1258338MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9911015627703321A Vision for Environmental Sustainability: Overcoming Waste Management Challenges in Developing Countries4412608UNINA
