Abstract

Sustainable management of organic solid wastes (OSW) within environmental, economic, and social standards is becoming an increasingly important and hot topic. This chapter gives a brief introduction to the types, sources and properties of OSW and then outlines technologies for sustainable recycle or conversion of OSW into biofuels and chemicals. In this chapter, features of biological, chemical, thermochemical, and photo-chemical technologies are described. An overview of databases used in life cycle assessment (LCA) of OSW and related topics are given. Advantages and scope of each technology are given for converting OSW into valuable products.
