Ezyske and Yang Deng Chapter 10 Synergisms between Compost and Biochar for Sustainable Soil Amelioration 167 Daniel Fischer and Bruno Glaser Preface Solid waste management is one of the important disciplines of environmental management. It is divided into two parts, dealing with biodegradable and non- biodegradable waste. The segregation of waste in most developing countries is a difficult task. This problem has a wide range of causes, including the lack of public knowledge of the problem. Lack of funds plays a small but very vital role. Solid waste management is a wide and diversified field. Within this field, organic waste attracts a great deal of attention because of its chemical constituents. However, the few narrowly specialized resources on this type of waste are insufficient to reveal the complete chemistry of it. The book titled “Management of Organic Waste “ is designed to provide a fundamental knowledge of the principles related to the management of organic waste. The chapters of the book are arranged logically and they offer an up-to-date approach to offer a better understanding of the chemistry used to treat organic waste as a raw material which results in a useful product. The breadth and depth of the material presented in this book will help to understand the different processing and disposal aspects of organic waste. The comparative aspects of processing and disposal, reflect the unique identity of the book. Lastly, each chapter with different sub-headings contains very good resources, and very clear concepts. This publication will be extremely helpful to students, researchers, scientists, policy makers, and local waste management authorities.
