BEST AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGIES FOR WASTE CO-FIRING APPLICATIONS

Social sustainability assessment of conversion technologies: Municipal solid waste into bioenergy using Best Worst Method

The majority of sustainability assessments of the bio based industries are primarily focused on the environmental and economic aspects, while social impacts are rarely considered. While overlooking social dimension can have a serious harmful impact across supply chains. To address this issue, this study proposes a modified systemic approach for a social sustainability impact assessment of the te...

Emissions study of co-firing waste carpet in a rotary kiln.

Post-consumer carpet represents a high volume, high energy content waste stream. As a fuel for co-firing in cement kilns, waste carpet, like waste tires, has potential advantages. Technological challenges to be addressed include assessing potential emissions, in particular NO emissions (from nylon fiber carpets), and optimizing the carpet feed system. This paper addresses the former. Results of...
