A functional perspective to planning waste systems in developing countries : strategies for the public and private sector : A case study of Muzaffarnagar, India
Abstract
dc:description.abstractThis thesis introduces a new framework for establishing waste systems in developing countries. The functional perspective is a stand-alone extension of integrated sustainable waste management. In January 2015 the functional perspective was applied to analyze the waste system of Muzaffarnagar, India, and to propose solutions to existing problems. The functional perspective was found to be helpful as a theoretical framework guiding waste system design processes for decision makers both in the public as well as private sector.
