This volume investigates the applications of the Circular Economy (CE) model in addressing the burgeoning issue of waste. Today, it has become imperative to understand the problem of environmental pollution from a value chain perspective. This calls for the coupling of the knowledge bases of science and management to achieve practical solutions to environmental problems and transition to a low carbon economy. With this thought process, this book merges various concepts from the techno-managerial perspective for effective waste management solutions. It throws light on the system-oriented view of CE and the contributions explore such concepts as the managerial aspect of waste management and CE, as well as advances in technical detailing.
