Any organic matter in waste which can be broken down into water, methane, carbon dioxide and simpler organic molecules is known as biodegradable waste. It is broken down by processes like aerobic digestion, composting and anaerobic digestion. Biodegradable waste includes manure, human waste, sewage and slaughterhouse waste. Food waste, green waste, paper waste and biodegradable plastics also fall under this category. Biodegradable waste management involves the treatment of biodegradable waste by processes such as pyrolysis, biodegradation and bioremediation. Pyrolysis involves the incineration of dry waste matter in order to produce heat and electricity. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practice of biodegradable waste management. Most of the topics introduced in it cover new techniques of waste management. This textbook is an essential guide for both academicians and those who wish to pursue this discipline further.
