Biological Pretreatment of Municipal Solid Waste Prior to Landfilling
The conventional landfilling does not promote sustainable waste management due to uncontrolled emissions which potentially degrade the environment. In this regard, pre-treatment of municipal solid waste prior to landfilling significantly enhance waste stabilization and provides various advantages. So in this regard pre-treatment methods of municipal solid waste were investigated. The major obje...
متن کاملPretreatment of municipal solid waste prior to landfilling.
An outdoor pilot-scale study was undertaken to pretreat municipal solid waste by windrow composting. The raw waste was introduced to active composting without any source separation or pulverization. Pretreatment indicators were developed and used as a tool to measure the optimum level of sorting and waste stabilization. The moisture content of the waste dropped from 68% to 61% and the pile atta...
متن کاملMunicipal Solid Waste Composting: Biological Processing
composting process, as one or the other is normally a limiting factor. Carbon serves primarily as an energy source for the microorganisms, while a small fraction of the carbon is incorporated in their cells. Nitrogen is critical for microbial population growth, as it is a constituent of protein which forms over 50 percent of dry bacterial cell mass. If nitrogen is limiting, microbial population...
متن کاملEmergy Assessment of Incineration and Landfilling of Municipal Solid Waste in Italy
Waste management is an important issue to solve as the assimilative capacity of the biosphere becomes overloaded by human needs and activities. According to European guidelines, reduction of waste generation and recovery of energy and materials are strongly recommended for environmentally sound waste management. In order to adopt a long-term sustainable strategy, it is necessary to assess the v...
متن کاملCharacterization of Leachate from Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Landfilling Sites of Ludhiana, India: A Comparative Study
The paper discusses the characteristics of leachate generated from municipal solid waste landfilling sites of Ludhiana City, Punjab (India). Leachate samples were collected and analyzed for various physico-chemical parameters to estimate its pollution potential. This study aims to serve as a reference for the implementation of the most suitable technique for reducing the negative environmental ...
