Advanced Green and Sustainable Chemical and Physical Technologies for Resources Recycling of Solid Wastes

We are pleased to tell you that a Frontiers e-book, comprising all the articles featured in our Research Topic titled 

“Advanced Green and Sustainable Chemical and Physical Technologies for Resources Recycling of Solid Wastes” Frontiers in Chemistry journal  has been compiled and is now available online on the website

To prevent CO2-induced climate change, the world is quickly moving toward a carbon-neutral society by using electric vehicles, renewable energy sources, and other energy sources, which demand more resources than traditional ones in terms of materials, minerals, and metals. In this regard, recycling processes of rare earth elements (REEs), metals, plastic, and glass from secondary sources with a zero-waste strategy have become more important in order to reduce environmental damage and bring them into the economy when primary mineral resources are running out. Therefore, in this Research Topic, studies on effective, non-hazardous, long-term, and ecological recycling processes of solid wastes, including by-products from industrial processes containing metals have been compiled.
