Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Packaging waste are one of fastest growing waste streams. Trends in waste generation show an increase in the volumes of waste produced in most countries and it is clear that the trend will continue. Currently, the management of packaging waste represents a major economic and environmental issue throughout the world.
