Waste Management

The collection, treatment and disposal of waste in all its forms is an issue for all organizations and jurisdictions. The philosophy of the waste management hierarchy with its core strategy of waste prevention, minimization, reuse, recycling, energy recovery and final disposal is now firmly established as a driving principle around the world.
