Abstract

All over the world, an increased generation of waste during production and at the end of use is a serious problem due to unsustainable consumption and economic growth. Waste management has become a major concern and one of the most important environmental and political issues in modern society. Importance of controlling and minimizing waste at source is recognized, but total waste elimination in the products’ life cycle is impossible.
