Waste entrepreneurship refers to the practice of creating and operating businesses that aim to address the problem of waste management. It signifies businesses that are dedicated to finding innovative solutions for managing waste and plays a crucial role in building a sustainable future. Waste entrepreneurs identify waste as a valuable resource and use state-of-the-art tactics to reduce, reuse, recycle, and re-purpose it. By developing new technologies, services, and products that help reduce waste and recycle materials, they can create new economic opportunities while simultaneously reducing the environmental impact of waste. The primary audience of this book are researchers (from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds) working in the field of waste management (especially E-waste, Plastics, Paper and Cardboard Waste, Organic Waste, and Construction and Demolition Waste) and environmental sustainability. This book also contains descriptions of various facets of waste entrepreneurship from different countries which will be helpful for different entrepreneurs looking for business opportunities in the waste management sector, NGOs, government agencies, international agencies, and new researchers working in the related fields. In particular, the book could provide start-up ideas to the enthusiastic readers. . 0aRefuse and refuse disposal. 0aEntrepreneurship. 0aNew business enterprises. 0aEnvironmental economics. 0aSustainability. 0aEnvironmental management.14aWaste Management/Waste Technology.24aEntrepreneurship.24aEnvironmental Economics.24aSustainability.24aEnvironmental Management.1 aSingh, Pardeep.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aBorthakur, Anwesha.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303155130708iPrinted edition:z978303155132108iPrinted edition:z978303155133840uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-55131-4
