Features: This textbook approaches the management and control of hazardous waste from a comprehensive perspective, summarizing both domestic and international theories, practices, and research on hazardous waste management, treatment, disposal, and resource utilization. It is highly theoretical and offers practical insights. The book is divided into six chapters:
Chapter 1 discusses the definition, characteristics, identification, sampling, and analysis of hazardous waste, as well as its sources;
Chapter 2 explores the laws, regulations, management systems, and policies related to hazardous waste management;
Chapter 3 covers the collection, transportation, and storage of hazardous waste;
Chapter 4 focuses on the resource utilization and treatment technologies of hazardous waste, including resource recovery technologies for waste organic solvents, waste mineral oils, heavy metal sludge, non-ferrous metal waste residues, and in-situ and ex-situ biological treatment technologies for hazardous waste;
Chapter 5 emphasizes hazardous waste incineration technology, providing detailed discussions on the fundamental theories of incineration, incineration furnaces, flue gas pollution control, and the design of hazardous waste incineration facilities;
Chapter 6 addresses the final disposal of hazardous waste, discussing the design principles of secure landfills, impermeability, leachate control, and specific design requirements.
This book can serve as a teaching material for college and university courses on solid and hazardous waste control, a reference for graduate students in the field of solid waste pollution and control, a working reference for solid waste management officials at various levels, and a technical manual for researchers and engineering construction personnel in hazardous waste science and technology.
