Municipal Solid Waste Incinerators
more garbage than any other nationover 160 million tons of garbage each year or more than 1,200 pounds per person. EPA expects this to increase to more than 2,300 pounds of garbage per person each year within the next 1 2 years. Whether it is recycled, buried or burned, the fate of this refuse has major impacts on public health, the environment and the economy. United States citizens generate W...

متن کاملMicrobial diversity and dynamics during methane production from municipal solid waste.
The objectives of this study were to characterize development of bacterial and archaeal populations during biodegradation of municipal solid waste (MSW) and to link specific methanogens to methane generation. Experiments were conducted in three 0.61-m-diameter by 0.90-m-tall laboratory reactors to simulate MSW bioreactor landfills. Pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA genes was used to characterize micro...
متن کاملMunicipal Solid Waste Performance Indicators
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This paper introduces a framework developed for the waste management sector supported by Performance Indicators. It was designed in order to be coherent and articulate and to enable full integration of its information. These indicators proved to be a useful management tool. This framework includes 167 performance indicators (PI) divided into two types of information: 58 Contex...
متن کاملFormation of Dioxins and Furans during Municipal Solid Waste Gasification
Thermal treatment is an interesting strategy to dispose of municipal solid waste: it reduces the volume and weight of the material dumped in landfills and generates alternative energy. However, the process emits pollutants, such as dioxins and furans. The present study evaluated MSW gasification-combustion integrated technologies in terms of dioxin and furan emission; and compared the obtained ...
