Solid Waste ‒ Management Models

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
University Campus Solid Waste Management

Part of the book series: SpringerBriefs in Environmental Science ((BRIEFSENVIRONMENTAL))

Abstract

Various models have been introduced in solid waste–management systems with the capability to analyze, evaluate, or predict future outcomes. LCA is a necessary tool in evaluating the environmental load generated from an activity or a product by means of identifying and quantifying the energy and material utilized, the generation of solid waste emitted in to the environment, and the impacts of such.
