The progress of society brings up more and more wastes from every field of human life, and the disposal and recycling of them becomes a new issue for the new age. People began to recycle waste metal and plastic from long time ago, but along with the appearance of e-waste and the more intractable radioactive waste, the treatment and recycling processes became a challenge. As people in the word get more and more apprehensive to the environmental problems, the research of waste treatment and recycling is accelerated.

This special issue aims at providing a platform for scientists and academics all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in the area of waste treatment and recycling. Potential topics included, but are not limited to:

• Treatment processes (include physical, chemical and biological methods, etc.)

• Recycling processes (include physical, chemical and biological methods, etc.)

• Design, operation and assessment of treatment and recycling facilities (include physical process design, facility construction, facility operation and the facility performance, etc.)

• Energy and economics of waste treatment and recycling

• Life cycle assessment of waste treatment and recycling

• Case studies
