Abstract
Waste Management is a matter of growing importance in all the most industrialised Countries, but it is becoming more widespread also in the Regions of increasing economical development. Many problems are related to it, of technological, environmental, social and economical nature, thus spreading over the whole complex issue of development sustainability. The Summer School “Innovative Technologies and Environmental Impacts in Waste Management” started from these observations and resulted in the opportunity of calling in Rimini, from 12 to 17 June 2006, some of the main experts, at Italian and European level, of the different aspects related to waste management, within which: - management strategies; - physico-chemical waste characterisation; - efficiency of different collection systems; - technologies for material recovery (recycling of different waste types, composting); - technologies for energy recovery; - assessment of impacts from different treatment and disposal processes (LCA, environmental monitoring); - related economical effects. The main lectures resulted in a description of the different perspectives from which the complex situation of waste management can be observed, integrating the different disciplinary expertises. Together with them, the results obtained so far in the ambit of LITCAR project have been presented during the school. This project (whose acronym means: Integrated Laboratory Technologies and Environmental Control in Waste Life Cycle), is included in the Hi-Tech Network, co-funded by Emilia Romagna Region (Northern Italy). This network laboratory faces the problem of waste management according to the same integrated approach followed for the Summer School. The school represented also the opportunity of meeting for students and researchers coming from different Countries, also non-European (Italy, Spain, Germany, Austria, UK, Serbia, Macedonia, Romania, Belgium, Cameroon, India, Morocco), from which very interesting cultural and scientific exchanges resulted.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
