Civilized society produces enormous amounts of waste that must be managed to avoid negative impacts on the environment and ecosystem. Future generations depend on us for a sustainable future, bringing attention to this growing problem. Waste management and its utilization should be given paramount importance in technological development and innovation, where technology like AI, machine learning, computer vision, automation, and sensor technology has a vital role to play. Waste Management and Utilization for a Sustainable Environment provides a comprehensive overview of the latest research on innovative technologies shaping a more sustainable future. Through real-world case studies and expert insights, this book demonstrates that the future can be made sustainable through innovative engineering solutions for managing the enormous waste generated by society.
