In accordance with Law on Environment, Solid Waste Management Regulation, Metropolitan Municipalities Law and Municipal Law; Metropolitan municipalities and municipalities out of adjacent zones and the highest civilian authority out of these zones are responsible for ensuring the disposal of domestic and domestic-type industrial solid waste while avoiding environmental damage, ensuring the maxi...

Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis is a influential and feasible device for sequence examination of the variety of complicted natural microbial populations. For PCR amplification of 16S rDNA products and specific primers were used and analyzed by denaturing gel electrophoresis in gradient. Probes specific for the cluster Genusand were designed to bind to sequences within the region amplifi...

Waste materials are common problem in modern living. Waste accumulates from number of sources including domestic, industrial, commercial, construction and demolition activity. A significant portion of municipality waste is construction related. Proper management of construction and demolition waste is important or else it will get mixed with municipal waste. This type of mixing leads to cutting...

This paper reports on a practical case that involved the confluence of an industrial software development platform, based on the model-driven development paradigm and a research methodology and prototype set of tools, based on the notion of capability. The focus of the application is the development of a web-based industrial symbiosis platform. The outcome is an example of a successful alignmen...

Hazardous solid wastes may pose a serious risk to human health and to the environment, if not managed appropriately and disposed of safely. In this study, the effective stabilization of tannery sludge, a toxic industrial solid waste produced from the physico-chemical treatment of tannery wastewaters, was examined by the addition of ladle furnace slag (LFS), another industrial solid waste. Moreo...

In recent decades, the European Union has striven towards the harmonisation of waste management practices throughout its Member States, by adopting legislation and specific guidelines. Nevertheless, the management of discarded products and materials still differ greatly among European nations. The case is illustrated with an overview of domestic and industrial waste management in Italy and the ...

The ZeroWIN project has identified four key strategies for the realization of zero waste in industrial networks: industrial symbiosis, supply chain management (including collaboration of actors along the supply chain), product stewardship and eco-design. A review of the current European policies has shown that “industrial symbiosis” is the ZeroWIN strategy least addressed by European Union (EU)...
