Abstract

Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering: Solid Waste Management provides extensive coverage of new developments, state-of-the-art technologies, and potential future trends, reviewing the latest innovative developments in environmental biotechnology and bioengineering as they pertain to solid wastes, also revealing current research priority areas in solid waste treatment and management. The fate of solid wastes can be divided into three major areas, recycling, energy recovery, and safe disposal. From this foundation, the book covers such key areas as biotechnological production of value added products from solid waste, bioenergy production from various organic solid wastes, and biotechnological solutions for safe, environmentally-friendly treatment and disposal. The state of the art situation, potential advantages, and limitations are discussed, along with proposed strategies on how to overcome limitations.

Abstract

"The management of radioactive waste in Europe and elsewhere has been the subject of continuous legal and political challenges, both in courtrooms and by environmental groups in the field. Public concern was and is often considerable. Somewhat remarkable perhaps, the management of radioactive waste has not received the attention in academic literature it so very much seems to deserve. One of the purposes of this book is to examine and discuss some important aspects of the relevant law, notably of the European Union. Under EU Law, radioactive waste management largely has a separate Euratom regime. This special Euratom Community has hardly been affected by all the developments from the original Community Law to modern EU Law. It has missed all the Treaty changes, from Maastricht and Amsterdam all the way to the Lisbon Treaty. Minimal power of the European Parliament in this field is one of the consequences. This book discusses and critically analyzes in detail how the Euratom regime functions in respect to such an important part of the management of radioactive waste. It critically analyzes the applicable instruments of Euratom law, the relevant jurisprudence of the European Court of Justice, as well as some salient developments in national and international law."--

Abstract

À l'ère de l'Anthropocène, nos villes semblent concentrer en leur sein tous les composants de la crise écologique en cours. Elles regorgent pourtant de ressources qui permettraient de résoudre une partie des problèmes que leur développement actuel suscite. Les matières déchues, les espaces bâtis, mais aussi les savoirs ancestraux et les pratiques culturelles représentent autant d'opportunités qui peuvent et doivent ouvrir de nouvelles perspectives d'action pour accompagner nos sociétés vers les nombreux changements qui se profilent. Déceler ces potentialités requiert intelligence et méthode, en raison notamment de leur nature latente, imperceptible, enfouie. Complément des recherches récentes sur le thème du recyclage dans les milieux urbains ("Recycler l'urbain. Pour une écologie des milieux habités", MetisPresses, 2014), Ressources urbaines latentes nous amène à faire un pas en arrière pour diriger notre regard sur les conditions qui existent en amont de ces projets et pratiques de recyclage.
