This new volume provides an abundance of updated information on the management of biomedical waste, presenting an overview of the problem of such wastes as well as effective management, the consequences of mismanagement of biomedical waste, and future remediation methods. It presents a plethora of chemical, biochemical, microbiological, and biotechnological approaches for effective biowaste management, such as methods for the detoxification and biodegradation of pharmaceutical compounds, chemicals, and unused drugs; disposal methods of biomedical e-waste; the use of nanotechnology for the degradation of pharmaceutical chemicals from aquatic systems; transportation issues in the management of biomedical waste; and more.
