Urban agriculture, due to its location, can play a key role in recycling urban waste streams, promoting nutrient recycling, and increasing sustainability of food systems. This research investigated the integration of brewery wastewater treatment through anaerobic digestion with substrate-based soilless agriculture. An experiment was conducted to study the performance of three different crops (mustard greens (Brassica juncea), basil (Ocimum basilicum), and lettuce (Lactuca sativa) grown with digested and raw brewery wastewater as fertilizer treatments. Mustard greens and lettuce grown in digested wastewater produced similar yields as the inorganic fertilizer control treatment, while basil had slightly lower yields. In all cases, crops in the digested wastewater treatments produced higher yields than raw wastewater or the no fertilizer control, indicating that nutrients in the brewery wastewater can be recovered for food production and diverted from typical urban waste treatment facilities.

With the rapid expansion of urban scale, urban waste disposal has become an important issue for ecological environment construction. In order to seek the coordinated development of economy and environment, we systematically intervene in urban waste intelligent treatment plans and management through design thinking and methods, and build urban waste intelligent treatment systems to achieve waste volume control, waste monitoring, classified collection, stacking and transportation, processing and Reprocessing production forms a controllable intelligent operation chain, which realizes the collaboration of human brain intelligence and artificial intelligence to improve the level of urban waste treatment and management capabilities.

Urban Waste Management

This multidisciplinary study aims to analyse how the urban waste management system has changed in the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna, during the decade in which a single regional regulatory unit, the Emilia-Romagna Territorial Agency for Water and Waste Services (ATERSIR), was established and became operational, and the waste management planning was centralized at regional level. Particularly, the following changes have been analysed: i) the methods of municipal waste management (WM), considering waste generation, separate waste collection and waste treatment; ii) the costs of WM service, with a focus on cost of treatment and disposal of unsorted waste; and iii) the urban solid WM policies, in terms of levels of governance, territorial planning and implementation of policies on the regional territory. The period within which the analysis was carried out covers the years from 2008 to 2018, comparing two time frames, before and after ATERSIR establishment. Data at municipal level were gathered and analysed. The results of the technical, economical and institutional assessment show that relevant benefits occurred, such as a constant improvement of environmental performances, the optimisation of the waste flows to plants, a higher level of uniformity of WM cost among Municipalities and a better quality of data collected from waste providers for the technical and economic regulation of the sector. Potential improvements are identified, whilst the institutional reform is positively evaluated in all the analysed aspects.

Customary Practices

The need for better understanding of “sociocultural factors”--behaviours and attitudes--is recognized as important to advances in waste disposal and treatment for developing countries. This understanding must include the views of planners and administrators and not merely the recipients of basic services. This paper focuses on issues related to waste reuse in cities. It is argued that there must be more research on informal waste treatment and use as customary practices (e.g. in aquaculture and urban agriculture) may form the basis for integrating reuse into community disposal and treatment. This will require changes in the attitudes of officials who often disregard established practices. Adapting informal waste reuse to urban development will raise difficult policy issues that social and medical research may clarify but will not necessarily resolve. Examples are drawn from Calcutta and Lucknow.
