Summary
Summary
Solid waste is one of the few untapped resources available to our cities. In this definitive monograph, the authors use a mathematical model of cost efficiency to explore the potential of solid waste to increase development areas through land fill, to yield essential materials through recycling, and to provide inexpensive fuel supplies through incineration and pyrolysis.
