Sustainability Impact Assessment of Waste to Energy Technologies in Iran
Introduction: Current energy sources are coming to end and one of the main priorities of the country’s management is the energy recovery from renewable energy. Considerable quantity of municipal solid waste (MSW) is one of the most serious urban pollution sources. Impact assessment matrix is a new and fast tool for Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). Materials and Methods: In this regard, r...
متن کاملLife Cycle Environmental Assessment of Municipal Solid Waste to Energy Technologies
The study aimed to analyze potential environmental burdens of different waste-to-energy technologies through LCA model. LCA model is developed by SimaPro software by considering Ecoindicator 99 method. Landfill, Incineration, Pyrolysis-Gasification and Anaerobic Digestion are analyzed by considering emission to the atmosphere per unit electricity generation. Results show that, Landfill and Inci...
متن کاملAnaerobic Digestion of Vegetable Waste
Fruit and vegetable wastes are produced in large quantities in Iran, and constitute a source of nuisance in municipal landfills. The objective of this study was to optimize the applications of anaerobic digestion for the treatment of municipal organic wastes. We studied the effect of organic loading rates on anaerobic digestion of vegetable wastes. The complete-mix, pilot-scale digester with wo...
متن کاملEnvironmental impacts and costs of solid waste: a comparison of landfill and incineration.
The methodology for evaluating the impacts and damage costs ('external costs') due to pollution from waste treatment is described and the results are presented, based on the ExternE project series of the European Commission. The damage costs of landfill and incineration of municipal solid waste are compared, with due account for energy and materials recovery, as well as possible differences in ...
