Summary:Modern societies produce large amounts of waste of many different types. This presents a problem in terms of management or disposal to prevent harm to human health and the environment. Additionally it represents a loss of potentially useful resources. In the circular economy concept nothing would ever become waste because everything would be re-usable or its components recoverable. Ionic liquids provide a potential route for valorisation of different waste types, paving the way for a circular economy and a more sustainable world.Covering various types of waste, including municipal, industrial, electronic, and medical, while addressing patented and commercial applications, this book aims to deliver a comprehensive, but also critical, perspective on the application of ionic liquids towards waste valorisation.Waste Valorisation Using Ionic Liquids is a useful resource for academic and industrial players, in the fields of chemistry, chemical and environmental engineering, and biotechnology, as well as anyone working on waste management and resource recovery
Item Description:Waste and Circular Economy;Ionic Liquids as Technological Solutions in Waste Valorisation;Municipal Waste; Industrial Waste;E-waste;Medical and Biological Samples Waste;Patented and Commercialized Ionic-liquid-based Processes for Waste Valorisation;Critical Considerations for Developing Sustainable Ionic-liquid-based Valorisation Strategies for Waste;Future Perspectives and Concluding Remarks
