dc.description.abstract | 'Waste Prevention' is unambiguous, as contrasted with 'waste minimization' or 'waste elimination'. It means preventing the production of waste. It isn't easy to do. Typically it requires major modification to the process: * to minimize byproduct formation * to recover product and byproducts * to recycle wastes to destruction * to recover undesirables in a form in which they can be sold or burned * to incorporate a waste destruction step into the process. Small Arms Fire --is how our past success stories can be categorized, accurate but limited. Heavy Artillery --refers to R&D programs to revise our processes to prevent waste. Magic Bullets --refers to generic new technologies. | en |
