Abstract |
The report has three primary objectives: (1) to identify waste minimization practices in the United States by major industry processes and by major waste stream; (2) to identify factors that promote and inhibit the adoption of waste minimization practices by industry; and (3) to identify strategies by which waste minimization can be increased. The report also serves as a resource document on waste minimization for Federal and State programs industries, and the general public. It must be noted that this study approval has the objectives stated above in an exploratory manner because of the size, diversity, and complexity of the subject. |
