Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the recent focus on the circular economy, waste management has received much attention, leading to improved management technologies, strategies, procedures, and policies. Nonetheless, the complexity of waste means that management and policy decisions depend on the waste type, the composition of precursor substrate, available technology, and environmental impact. Thus, we seek new findings through cutting-edge research that have contributed effectively to turning solid and liquid wastes into value-added products. This also includes quantifying and harnessing special wastes (e.g., medical), including innovative waste recovery, recycling, and reuse approaches. This Special Issue will focus on solid and liquid waste management technologies, cost and environmental impact assessment, adapting precision agriculture in waste management and application, and related policy formulation.
