Waste generation, both domestic and industrial, poses an important management problem in modern societies. The challenge is the prevention of waste generation, increasing their recovery and minimizing the wastes intended for final disposal. Proper waste management presents an opportunity to exploit wastes as products in other production processes.
Each category of wastes poses specific challenges that require strategies tailored to their nature and problems. INÈDIT has expertise in assessing both prevention and treatment of waste, especially in the areas of used oils and packaging wastes. INÈDIT uses tools derived from the discipline of Industrial Ecology, which can increase the efficiency of production systems as a result of the appropriate management of wastes, returning them into the economy while reducing the environmental impact generated.
