Special Issue Information
As the founding Editor-in-Chief, I am pleased to announce the feature paper collection on Sustainable Waste Management. The development of sustainable waste management strategies is a major challenge throughout the world. This Special Issue will focus on the environmental impact of all kinds of wastes, recycling of wastes, and circular economy. Both original research articles and comprehensive review papers are welcome. All papers accepted after open access peer review will be free of charge. We look forward to receiving your contributions.
