Solid Waste Management Research Workshop

加拿大固体废物的处理和命运仍然是一个复杂和昂贵的问题，分散在许多政府级别以及私营部门。缺乏关于固体废物产生和处置的信息的范围和质量。尽管加拿大各地的一些学术研究人员在各个方面开展了工作，但还没有协调一致的努力来找到适合加拿大独特问题的解决方案。因此，本次研讨会的目标是汇集与固体废物管理有关的各种研究领域的各种学术专家。此外，还将包括政府和工业界的主要利益相关者，研讨会与会者将共同确定关键的研究优先事项以及为解决这些问题而可以形成的合作。讲习班的最终目标是促进一项或多项重大研究合作的进行，这将有助于在以下方面取得进展：

The handling and fate of solid waste in Canada continues to be a complex and costly problem, spread among many governmental levels as well as the private sector. The extent and quality of information about solid waste generation and disposal is lacking. Although a number of academic researchers across Canada have worked on various aspects, there has not been a coordinated effort to find solutions that are tailored for the unique Canadian problems. Therefore, it is the goal of this workshop to bring together the various academic experts in a wide variety of research areas related to solid waste management. Also included will be major stakeholders in government and industry, and together the workshop participants will identify key research priorities and the collaborations that can be formed to address these issues. The ultimate goal of the workshop is to promote the pursuance of one or more major research collaborations that will help to make progress in the
