This book, edited by Majeti Narasimha Vara Prasad, explores the intersection of environmental materials and waste management within the framework of a circular economy and pollution abatement. It discusses resource recovery from various waste materials such as biowaste, plastic, and electronic waste, and examines sustainable practices for pollution prevention. The book also delves into the management of specific waste types, including food waste in Thailand, biochar from green waste, and the recovery of rare earth elements from e-waste. The intended audience includes researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in sustainable waste management and environmental protection.
