Abstract The Sustainability Assistant App addresses the challenge of effective waste handling in a time of growing environmental awareness. Many households struggle with proper recycling and creative reuse of items, leading to wasted opportunities. Current recycling apps often provide generic advice, lacking personalized solutions for specific items and conditions. They also fail to engage users in creative waste reduction methods. A key issue is the absence of NLP in these systems, limiting their ability to offer tailored suggestions. Most apps focus only on traditional recycling, overlooking

Environmental awareness and legislative pressures have made manufacturers responsible for the take-back and end-of-life treatment of their products. Therefore, manufacturers are struggling to find ways to recover maximum value from returned products. This goal can best be achieved by promoting multiple reuse programs as reuse is one of the most effective ways to enhance a sustainable engineering economy. Since the essential goal of the reuse strategy is to reuse parts, the reliability of used parts becomes a core issue. Research indicates that reuse is technologically feasible, associated with

Abstract:
Abstract For 35 years, Cyclife, a specialized company within the EDF Group, has provided metal treatment services to the domestic and international nuclear industry with the aim to qualify the metal for clearance and recycling for manufacturing of new products, for the manufacturing of shielding arrangements or for volume reduction. The acceptance of free released material for conventional recycling and/or reuse within the nuclear industry has been in focus for multiple years. Now, when the treatment and recycling concepts are well established and accepted by most stakeholders, the shortage of

Abstract:
This panel session reviews a topic of long-standing interest and importance to the municipal waste combustion industry; how can some or all of the ten percent (10%) by volume of incoming material that remains after municipal solid waste is combusted be productively reused? This panel will address various reuse related topics, including but not limited to the following: • Pinellas County, Florida hosts a regional program where recovered ferrous metals from municipal waste combustors are shredded and recycled; an overview of experiences, economics, and logistics will be presented. • The Pennsylv

Abstract:
On military installations, an average of 1.2 pounds in food waste is disposed per person per day, accounting for 68% of dining facility (DFAC) refuse and 46% of the total installation refuse stream, making food waste the heaviest portion of installation solid waste. At a single installation, this can contribute up to 1.5 million dollars lost yearly from food waste alone. Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) 4715.23 (DoD 2016) establishes policy and prescribes procedures to implement waste management through waste prevention and recycling.

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,

Abstract:
Despite growing interest and recognition of urban and peri-urban agriculture (UPA) as a nature- based solution, there is limited empirical evidence in countries like India on its role in reconfiguring goals on environmental functions (such as biodiversity, waste management, water recycling, micro-climate regulation, etc.) and social wellbeing (such as food and nutrition security, gender relations, work burdens, land tenure and community ties). A need to address this gap led to the ideation of the project ‘Urban and peri-urban agriculture as green infrastructures’ ( UPAGrI ). When UPAGrI starte

Abstract:
Nitrogen (N) plays a dual role in the agri-food system: it is an essential nutrient for all life forms, yet also an environmental pollutant causing a range of environmental and human health impacts. As the plant nutrient needed in greatest quantities, and as a building block of proteins and other biomolecules, N is a necessary part of all life. In the last century, an enormous increase of N turnover in the agri-food system has enabled increasing per-capita food supply for a growing world population, but as an unintended side effect, N pollution has increased to levels widely agreed in science

Air quality offsets as an instrument for air quality management in South Africa. Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf), 2025. https://doi.org/10.17159/assaf.2025/114.

Abstract:
To date, action to improve air quality in South Africa has focused on reducing emissions from industrial sources. This has led to measurable improvements in air quality in some industrial areas like the Vaal Triangle. Still, air pollution levels have remained above ambient air quality standards, and even worsened in large parts of the country, particularly low-income urban areas where many people live. Air quality offsets offer great potential to leverage resources and address air pollution in previously neglected areas. According to the Air Quality Offsets Guideline (2016), air quality offset
