High impact information on Waste Management

• However, organic arsenicals used in poultry feed are converted to inorganic arsenicals in poultry waste, limiting the feasibility of waste management alternatives [1].
• The reduction of Fe(III) and the subsequent increase of iron mobility and potential acidity transfer (Fe(II) oxidation can result in the release of H+ in an oxic environment) should be taken in account in mine waste management strategies [2].
• In the mid-1990s, a groundwater plume of uranium (U) was detected in monitoring wells in the B-BX-BY Waste Management Area at the Hanford Site in Washington. This area has been used since the late 1940s to store high-level radioactive waste and other products of U fuel-rod processing [3].
• Dioxin abatement strategies and mass balance at a municipal waste management plant [4].
• The aim of this work is to give representative data on polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDD), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs) from stack gas emissions of an urban solid waste management plant which has to comply with the limit of 0.1ng I-TEQ/Nm(3) [5].

Biological context of Waste Management

• The Spanish dioxin inventory part I: Incineration as municipal waste management system [6].
• Life cycle inventory for municipal solid waste management. Part 2: MSW management scenarios and modeling [7].
• This study investigates the terrestrial applicability of Life Support System (LSS) concepts as a framework for future domestic waste management [8].
• Food-chain and dose model, CALDOS, for assessing Canada's Nuclear Fuel Waste Management concept [9].

Associations of Waste Management with chemical compounds

• Nitrous oxide emission from waste management of livestock was 0.78 ton in 1990, increased to 0.86 ton in 1996, and then decreased to 0.65 ton in 2000 [10].
• Dietary salt (NaCl) levels (.2, .5%), dietary arsanilic acid levels (0, 100, 200 ppm), supplemental copper levels (0, 125, 250 ppm) and waste management systems (oxidation ditch, anaerobic deep pit, anaerobic lagoon) were compared in this series of studies [11].
• However, compounds such as propoxur, which are very mobile and relatively persistent in soil and in addition have been associated with significant potential health effects, may be targeted by the screening process as described here and could be selected for further investigation as candidates for special waste management status (such as HHW) [12].
• Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, dibenzofurans and 'dioxin-like' PCBs in flue gas emissions from municipal waste management plants [5].
• Waste management for Space Station Freedom [13].

Gene context of Waste Management

• The Canadian Nuclear Fuel Waste Management Program is developing methods for the safe disposal of both used nuclear fuel and fuel recycle waste [14].
• In Part 2, alternative waste management scenarios that include the selective collection of organic material and composting are illustrated [15].
• To examine the relevance of scale, we considered a small waste management system (WMS) serving 200,000 people and a large WMS serving 1,200,000 people [16].
• The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has developed a performance assessment capability to address three programmatic areas in nuclear waste management: high-level waste, low-level waste, and decommissioning of licensed facilities (license termination) [17].
• For example, a waste management system designed for a short trip to the moon will probably not be the best one for an extended mission to Mars [18].
