The Waste Management Research Report appeared three times per year between 1989 and 1992 in order to share research results from the magazine’s contributing institutions. Each issue of the publication will focus upon one major area of concern in the field of waste management and will highlight the contributing institution where researchers devote their efforts to the featured topic. Each issue contains at least one scientific technical article, as well as news reports on activities in waste management research and advance notices of meetings and symposia.
The Cornell Waste Management Institute is responsible for the Winter 1989 issue of Waste Management Research Report. The spring edition will focus on incinerator ash research. The Waste Management Institute at State University of New York at Stony Brook is responsible for the issue. April 3 is the deadline for submitting articles. April 10 is the deadline for news briefs and announcements. Please include black-and-whi te, glossy photographs with article submissions, as well as a head-and-shoulders photograph of each author, also black-and-white glossy. Mail all material to Louise W. Laughton at the editorial office address.
