Includes bibliographical references and index.

"Recycling and reuse of materials is of considerable interest these days. This new resource, Engineering Technologies for Renewable and Recyclable Materials: Physical-Chemical Properties and Functional Aspects, focuses on many recent advances in recycling and reuse of materials, outlining basic tools and novel approaches. It covers such important issues as e-waste recycling, bio-mass recycling, vermitechnology, recovery of metals, polymer recycling, environmental remediation, waste management, recycling of nanostructured materials, and more. Also included is coverage of new research in the use of laser spectroscopy, pyrolysis, and recycled biomaterials for biomedical applications. Written by some of the most innovative minds in various fields of study, this book will help professionals and students understand cutting-edge and futuristic areas of recycling and reuse of materials, facilitating further research and application of some methods into real-world applications and helping to find suitable methods for solving a burning question of waste management. The volume will be of interest to scientists, engineers, technologists, and those in industry"-- Provided by publisher
