Waste management

Abstract

The paper deals with waste management, taking into account a waste management practices inventory. Minimization of the quantity of wastes can be done only by establishing connections with the technological management field, meaning the replacement of the current production technologies with the so-called clean technologies technologies with a closed circuit, or very close to this stage. Other available options, with positive effects consider replacing certain raw materials with others, which produce a decreased quantity of wastes and the advanced recycling of fluids. Introducing certain special technological stages in order to minimize the quantity of wastes produced during the production process and reducing the volume of wastes by compressing them can prove to be also effective.
