    Author : Viacheslav Mutavchi; Jan Stenis; William Hogland; Torleif Bramryd; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economic models; economic incentives; solid waste management SWM schemes; baling economics; municipal solid waste MSW management; ecological– economic efficiency ECO-EE ; cost-benefit analysis CBA ; full cost accounting FCA analysis; the WAMED model; the COSTBUSTER model; the EUROPE model.; Environmental technology; Miljöteknik; Business administration; Företagsekonomi;

    Abstract : Efficient waste management enables the protection of human health, reducing environmental pollution, saving of natural resources, and achieving sustainable and profitable management of energy. In many countries, the general guidelines for waste management are set by national or local waste management plans. READ MORE

  4. 12. Mathematical modeling of municipal solid waste plasma gasification in a fixed-bed melting reactor

    Author : Qinglin Zhang; Weihong Yang; Wlodzimierz Blasiak; Halina Kruczek; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mathematical modeling; plasma gasification; municipal solid waste; fixed-bed;

    Abstract : The increasing yield of municipal solid waste (MSW) is one of the main by-products of modern society. Among various MSW treatment methods, plasma gasification in a fixed-bed melting reactor (PGM) is a new technology, which may provide an efficient and environmental friendly solution for problems related to MSW disposals.

  5. 13. Gasification and Pyrolysis Characterization and Heat Transfer Phenomena During Thermal Conversion of Municipal Solid Waste

    Author : Chunguang Zhou; Weihong Yang; Wlodzimierz Blasiak; Petr Stehlik; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; municipal solid waste; pyrolysis; gasification; heat transfer; CaO; CO2; reforming; numerical model; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : The significant generation of municipal solid waste (MSW) has become a controversial global issue. Pyrolysis and gasification technologies for treating rejects from solid waste disposal sites (SWDSs), for which over 50 % of MSW is attributed to combustible species, have attracted considerable attention.

  6. 14. Seasonal and Long-Term Storage of Baled Municipal Solid Waste

    Author : Diauddin Nammari; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pollution control; Environmental technology; Analytisk kemi; Analytical chemistry; Miljöstudier; Environmental studies; Waste storage; Poly aromatic hydrocarbons PAH ; Dioxin; Self ignition; Volatile organic compounds; GC-MS; Temperature; Interpolation; Baling; Cylindrical bales; Rectangular bales; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp;

    Abstract : Baling of MSW has been extensively used in Sweden and other countries for the storage of energy (biomass for energy) for incineration and production of either and or electricity and heat. Baling is performed in two principally different ways, leading to cylindrical- or rectangular bales. READ MORE
