Waste Management Policies and Practices in BRICS Nations

«

"The main emphasis is on solid and hazardous wastes, pertinent regulations, and current policies. The 19 chapters reveal significant differences from country to country, a natural finding given the different governments. However, more of the book is on municipal solid waste management, present efforts to manage hazardous waste, and current waste management policies. Authors are drawn from all BRICS countries. Many references follow each chapter. Aside from topics already mentioned, there is a chapter on polystyrene waste management and one on leaching and management of leachate associated with landfills."

Waste Management Policies and Practices in BRICS Nations explores recent developments in waste management. BRICS nations are the emerging economies of the world. Increasing populations, urbanization, industrialization and uses of chemical fertilizer and pesticide in agriculture for enhanced productivity of food, especially in India and China, to support the large populations harm the natural environment. The rise in the living standards of the human population has increased environmental pollution manifold, resulting in the huge generation of biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste simultaneously, which has contaminated natural resources such as soil, water and air. It has led to undesirable effects on the environment and human health.





The book offers comprehensive coverage of the most essential topics, including:








Waste management problems with special reference to MSW in Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa







Solid waste management in BRICS nations







Hazardous waste management in BRICS nations







Policies and laws in BRICS nations





This book contains both policies and methods used for the management of waste in BRICS nations. The chapters incorporate both policies and practical aspects.
