dc.description.abstract Many proven alternative waste treatment technologies (to landfilling) are available worldwide. However, not all of these are appropriate or economically viable (at least in the short-term) for implementation in Africa. This chapter explores the social and technological innovations that have emerged in Africa to deal with the increasing volumes of waste generated on the continent. Social innovations in waste prevention, reuse or collection and alternative waste treatment technologies for waste recycling and recovery are explored, and planned new waste technologies are highlighted. These innovations are also reflected on through relevant case studies. en_US
