dc.description.abstractThe rapid upsurge of industrialization and increasing global population has led to the tremendous generation and indiscriminate disposal of waste without corresponding treatment and management plans. Moreover, the rise in global economic development and living standards of people especially in developed nations has greatly increased the quantity and complexity of generated waste and consequentially, promoting environmental pollution. This chapter outlined some fundamental and theoretical aspects of environmental management and sanitation. The earlier sections considered briefly the concept of waste, its generation, classification and types, and the available treatment and management technologies. Later in this chapter, some challenges facing these management technologies alongside some sustainable measures in ensuring adequate environmental sanitation were highlighted. Finally, possible ways of achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs) via proper environmental management and sustainable practices were put forward.
