Abstract

This paper discusses innovative approaches to waste management that promote environmental sustainability and resource efficiency. It highlights the roles of the circular economy, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), waste-to-energy technologies, biotechnology, and agricultural waste valorization in addressing growing waste challenges. The study emphasizes that successful implementation requires strong governance, effective policies, public participation, and continuous scientific innovation to achieve a cleaner and greener future.
