"Millions from Waste" by Frederick Arthur Ambrose Talbot Not many people could make an entire text about waste entertaining. Talbot, however, succeeded in that. He describes how countries and organizations around the world handled their waste and how it actually contributes to functioning economic systems around the globe.
Prudent Practices in the Laboratory
Author: National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 9780309052290
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
This volume updates and combines two National Academy Press bestsellers--Prudent Practices for Handling Hazardous Chemicals in Laboratories and Prudent Practices for Disposal of Chemicals from Laboratories--which have served for more than a decade as leading sources of chemical safety guidelines for the laboratory. Developed by experts from academia and industry, with specialties in such areas as chemical sciences, pollution prevention, and laboratory safety, Prudent Practices for Safety in Laboratories provides step-by-step planning procedures for handling, storage, and disposal of chemicals. The volume explores the current culture of laboratory safety and provides an updated guide to federal regulations. Organized around a recommended workflow protocol for experiments, the book offers prudent practices designed to promote safety and it includes practical information on assessing hazards, managing chemicals, disposing of wastes, and more. Prudent Practices for Safety in Laboratories is essential reading for people working with laboratory chemicals: research chemists, technicians, safety officers, chemistry educators, and students.

Addressing the Economics of Waste
Author: Publisher: Org. for Economic Cooperation & Development
ISBN: 9789264106185
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
This publication contains eight papers presented at an OECD workshop, held in Paris in October 2003, to consider key policy issues in the area of solid waste management. Topics discussed include: trends in waste generation and related policies over the last decade; economic options in waste management; the development and implementation of the UK landfill tax; the waste tax in Norway; a cost-benefit analysis of alternative treatments of PVC waste in Denmark; efficient targeting of waste policies in the product chain; targeting lead in solid waste; and changing product characteristics to reduce waste generation.
Waste Management and the Environment IX
Author: F. A. Ortega RiegosPublisher: WIT Press
ISBN: 1784662976
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
Containing the proceedings from the 9th International Conference on Waste Management and the Environment, this book is a collection of research on current waste disposal methods, as well as highlighting better practices and safer solutions for the future. Waste Management is one of the key problems of modern society due to the ever-expanding volume and complexity of discarded domestic and industrial waste. Society is increasingly aware of the need to establish better practices and safer solutions for waste disposal. This requires further investigation into disposal methods and recycling as well as new technologies to monitor landfills, industrial mining wastes and chemical and nuclear repositories. This creates a need for more research on current disposal methods such as landfills, incineration, chemical and effluent treatment, as well as recycling, clean technologies, waste monitoring, public and corporate awareness and general education. The papers contained in this title form a collective record of scientific information and work on the current situation of waste management amongst professionals, researchers, government departments and local authorities.
Chlorinated Solvent Replacements Recycle
Author: Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
This report is a literature review of waste solvents recycle/recovery methods and shows the results of solvent separations using membrane and distillation technologies. The experimental solvent recovery methods were conducted on solvent replacements for chlorinated solvents at Montana State University. The literature review covers waste solvents separation using distillation, membranes decantation, filtration, carbon adsorption, solvent extraction, and other vapor-phase separation techniques. The results of this study identify solvent distillation methods as the most common separation technique. The alternative separation methods typically supplement distillation. The study shows the need for industries to identify waste solvent disposal methods and investigate the economics of waste solvent recycling as a possible waste reduction method.
Waste Minimization
Author: Barry D. CrittendenPublisher: IChemE
ISBN: 9780852953426
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
Waste minimization is an important element of sustainable development. It is concerned with environmental protection and with the reduction of production costs by the reduction of waste at source and by recycling. This guide provides an introduction to the many practical techniques which can be implemented to minimize waste, ranging from simple good housekeeping practice to sophisticated computational and life cycle methods. The book also provides a widely-accepted methodology which can be followed to ensure that waste minimization programmes and projects are successfully implemented.
