Hardcover. Zustand: New. Set against a milieu of solemn concerns emanating from inadequate municipal solid waste management on one side and the impetus given to private sector participation, this book critically examines and generates empirical evidence on the performance and implications of private sector participation in municipal solid waste management through the lens of a sustainability assessment prism specifically constructed for this purpose.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject Economy - Environment economics, grade: 2,7, Humboldt-University of Berlin, course: Environmental and Ressource Economics, language: English, abstract: --English version below--Die vorliegende Seminararbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Frage inwieweit Recycling als sinnvoll und lohnenswert anzusehen ist. Spezifisch wird das vorhandene System des Glasrecycling in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland auf zuvor präsentierte theoretische und empirische wissenschaftli-che Zusammenstellungen hin verglichen. Dabei wird der technische Prozess des Recycling fast gänzlich außer Acht gelassen. Vielmehr werden Bezahlstrukturen und Anreizmodelle für Haus-halte und Unternehmen betrachtet. Es wird dabei sowohl das Duale System Deutschland als auch das System der Mehrwegflaschen berücksichtigt. Schlussfolgernd kann festgehalten wer-den, dass die derzeitige Struktur zwar nicht alle zuvor präsentierte Ergebnisse optimal implemen-tiert, jedoch die realen Gegebenheiten und Interaktionen mit anderen Materialen hinreichend berücksichtigt. Insofern wird das System des Glasrecycling in Deutschland aus ökologischer und ökonomischer Perspektive durchaus positiv bewertet.The paper at hand tackles the question of recycling being sensible and social desirable. In fact, the current German glass recycling system is going to be compared to theoretical as well as empirical findings which are presented first. The technical process of recycling is going to be neglected. The focus is rather on payment schemes and incentives regarding the consumer as well as the industry side. Both streams of glass recycling(the Duale System Deutschland and the system of reusable bottles) are taken into account. Thus, one can sum up, that not all of the aforementioned results are incorporated into the current German system. However, real world circumstances as well as interactions with other materials are adequate considered. The final assessment from an ecological and economical point of view is consequently positive.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2011 in the subject Engineering - Mechanical Engineering, Andhra University, course: Ph.D, language: English, abstract: India, the second most populous and one of the fast developing economies in the world is poised to increase its general prosperity and standard of living and in the process is increasing its consumption levels of energy and consumer goods.In general, the quantity and the diversity of MSW are increasing year after year throughout the world, presenting a growing problem for local authorities necessitating new legislation as well as better management practices. Earlier solid waste was considered as an unwanted byproduct of the society but now it is considered as a resource out of place. Though landfills are the most common means of solid waste disposal, the increasing quantities of solid waste is rapidly filling the existing landfills, and new sites are difficult to establish especially in a country like India. Hence efforts are on to find alternatives to landfills and in this direction approaches like source reduction; recycling, composting and incineration are considered.In this context the present study entitled 'Some Experimental Studies on Management of Municipal Solid Waste' (A Case Study of MCE) was undertaken to study the present scenario of MSW management in Andhra Pradesh considering the Municipal Corporation of Eluru (MCE) on the East coast of India as the study area.Under the present scenario of MSW management in Andhra Pradesh, the status of present MSW management in Municipal Corporation of Eluru is studied in this work and some experimental studies were conducted in the following areas with an objective of better utilization of waste into a useful resource so as to set up model facilities on demonstration basis for implementation and to share the information for dissemination to other local bodies in the state and at national level.1.To find out the quantification and composition of MSW2.To estimate the power generation potentiality from MSW3.To estimate the possible revenue from vermin compost if prepared from the bio- degradable fraction of MSW4. To study the combustion, performance and emission analysis of plastic diesel derived from plastic waste as an alternate fuel at different fuel injection pressures in comparison with neat diesel.The implementation of plastic diesel derived from plastic waste on the diesel engine with blends of neat diesel and with cetane number improver at different fuel injection pressures is done and the performance, combustion and emission results are discussed.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Motivation The other day I was waiting at the station for my train. Next to me a young lady was nonchalantly leaning against the wall. Suddenly, she took a cigarette pack out of her handbag, pulled out the last cigarette, put it between her lips, crushed the empty pack, threw it on the ground and hedonistically lit the cigarette. I thought to myself, 'What a behavior !'. The nearest trashcan was just five meters away. So I bent down, took the crushed pack and gave it back to her, saying that she had lost it. She looked at me in a rather deranged way, but she said nothing and of waste to the trashcan. brought the piece Often people are not aware of the waste they produce. They get rid of it and that's it. As soon as the charming lady dropped the cigarette pack, the problem was solved for her. The pack was on the ground and it suddenly no longer belonged to her. It is taken for granted that somebody else will do the cleaning up. There is a saying that nature does not produce waste. For long as humans obtained the goods they needed from the ground where they lived, the waste that was produced could be handled by nature. This has drastically changed due to urbanization and waste produced by human activities has become a severe burden.…
