Abstract:
Waste management is a global concern due to the amount of waste produced. Globally, 2.01 billion tons of solid waste is produced annually with 33 percent of waste not managed safely. By 2050 waste generated is predicted to increase to 3.40 billion tons annually. Despite the weight of these threats on ecological balance, limited research has been conducted regarding the evaluation of the degree of which poor solid waste management practices influence the environment. Understanding the scale and seriousness of these effects is essential for planning powerful waste administration procedures, stra

Current concepts of environmental waste focus on the total production of waste from a production plant or industrial setting and the subsequent consequences on the natural environment. Hence, there is an emphasis on containing waste within the industrial boundaries and applying a post-production process to clean it up. However, waste is generated by individual processes within the production system and can be more effectively treated at this individual site level. Therefore, focused management of environmental waste reduction requires that production engineers first know what the environmental

The environmental impacts of coal processing wastes are a challenge in South Africa as large amounts of coal wastes are produced annually, pegged at 60 million tons per year according to Eberhard (2011). Whilst the fossil fuel-based industry is in decline globally, coal is likely to remain the dominant source of power in South Africa. The major environmental impacts reported in several studies are water pollution and soil quality degradation due to acid rock drainage (ARD) and its associated elevated levels of elements and salts.

Abstract:
Increasing population growth and high living standards, coupled with high consumption of energy and raw materials, result in a variety of emissions and waste that pollute the environment and pose a serious threat to the environment and health if not disposed of effectively. Pollution of the environment with plastic wastes and endocrine disruptors is one of the most important environmental problems affecting today's societies and nature. The Turkish Academy of Sciences, Environment, Biodiversity and Climate Change Working Group organized the "Workshop on Micro plastics, Endocrine Disruptors and

Abstract:
Waste disposal sites across Jordan pose serious risks to the environment and to public health if not managed safely. Municipal waste decomposing in open landfills also takes an environmental and socio-economic toll on neighbouring communities. While the Government of Jordan is planning to reduce the number of operational landfills and improve waste management services, persistent issues associated with unsustainable waste practices and their associated effects on the wellbeing of surrounding communities and the environment need to be addressed. Guaranteeing a sustainable waste management schem

Abstract:
Around one third of the weight of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted, and around a third of crop calories are lost to the food system during livestock production. Meanwhile, the global food system causes significant environmental impacts and around 800 million people are undernourished. This building block examines the following aspects of food loss and waste: mainstream definitions and alternative understandings, global statistics, and ‘hierarchies’ for prevention and treatment.

Abstract:
Microbiology, tissue culture, medical, equipment manufacturing labs, and many research labs and industries need strict sterile environments for their diverse operations. Experiments, specifically those involving cell lines or microorganisms need to be conducted in a controlled environment. Contamination not only voids experiments, but also wastes effort, time, and money and when involving patients, it poses serious health risks. It is essential to be well-versed in laboratory sterilization techniques.

Abstract:
This study explores the awareness and practices of reuse and recycling among underprivileged children in Bangladesh, aiming to enhance environmental sustainability through educational strategies. Interviews with children, parents, teachers, NGO workers, community leaders, and government officials reveal significant gaps in understanding and practicing waste management. While children show creativity in repurposing materials, challenges such as limited adult awareness and insufficient government initiatives persist. The study recommends integrating environmental education into school curricula,
