Many countries face serious strategic challenges with the future supply of both aggregates and critical elements. Yet, at same time, they must sustainably manage continued multimillion tonne annual arisings mineral-dominated wastes from mining industry. In an antithesis circular economy principles, these continue to be landfilled despite often comprising valuable components, such as metals, soil macronutrients mineral components which sequester atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). this paper,...
As world population and industrialization increase, the consequence has been an increase in waste generation. In attempt to curb this recover value from streams, European Union (EU) UK have introduced a wide range of legislation, focusing large extent on biodegradable component municipal solid (MSW).
