Aims and Scope
Waste Management is an international journal devoted to the presentation and discussion of information on the generation, prevention, characterization, monitoring, treatment, handling, reuse and ultimate residual disposition of solid wastes, both in industrialized and in economically developing countries. The journal addresses various types of solid wastes including municipal (e.g., residential, institutional, commercial, light industrial), agricultural, and special (e.g., C and D, health care, household hazardous wastes, sewage sludge).
Waste Management is designed for scientists, engineers, and managers, regardless of their discipline, who are involved in scientific, technical and other issues related to solid waste management. Emphasis is placed on integrated approaches. These approaches require the blending of technical and non-technical factors. Although the dissemination and application of innovative technical information is extremely important, the implementation of sustainable waste management practices also requires a thorough understanding of the pertinent legal, social, economic, and regulatory issues involved.

Verified Reviews
Overall, the reviewers of this journal provided very professional comments, addressing everything from logic to wording and grammar, hitting the key points. Due to my failure to timely modify the language, I had to request a one-month extension, resulting in a total of approximately 5 months from submission to acceptance.
The process is as follows:
July 27, 2021: Submission
October 5, 2021: Notification of major revision; November 15, 2021: Submission of revised manuscript (originally only given one month, but later applied for an extension until November 15)
January 20, 2022: Notification of minor revision; February 9, 2022: Submission of revised manuscript
February 16, 2022: Acceptance
February 23, 2022: Online availability of the paper
The whole process took 7 months, which is considered relatively long, and the speed was not very fast.
