Preface
The underlying document is one of the elements of an innovative capacity building project by BGP Engineers, TNO, Afvalzorg bv and UNESCO-IHE from The Netherlands and Universitas Mohammadiyah Malang (UMM) from Indonesia, funded by the EVD of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. The project aims at building capacity among institutions, waste engineers and managers on technical, environmental, social and energy issues of solid waste management.
A major element of this project is the development of educational material for a Solid Waste Management course at UMM. The material consists of two parts. Part one is meant for undergraduate students from a variety of disciplines and deals broadly with technical, environmental, social, institutional and financial issues of SWM. Part two is designed specifically for undergraduate students of the engineering stream and discusses technical issues related to planning, design, engineering and implementation. This stream aims at building technical know-how related to Solid Waste Management in Indonesia.
The production of this material, which consists of 22 chapters of text and related presentations, is a joint effort by the partners of the project:
BGP Engineers – Matsen Jorritsma, Wim Maaskant
TNO – Wilfred Appelman, Arjan van Horssen, Jack Pesik
