WRATE: Waste LCA for Municipal Waste Strategies

A waste Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tool, called Waste and Resources Assessment Tool for the Environment (WRATE) has been developed on the behalf of the Environment Agency for England and Wales, Scottish Environment Protection Agency and Department of Environment, Northern Ireland. This tool provides life cycle information to municipal authorities, central government and other stakeholders invo...

Uses for Sawdust, Shavings, and Waste Chips

Although many outlets are available for the utilization of wood fines, economical disposal of sawdust, shavings, and waste chips remains a problem of growing concern to the wood industry. This report summarizes current uses for wood residues and provides sources of further information on available outlets, processing methods, and economic considerations. USES FOR SAWDUST, SHAVINGS, AND WASTE CHIPS

Quantifying uncertainty in LCA-modelling of waste management systems.

Uncertainty analysis in LCA studies has been subject to major progress over the last years. In the context of waste management, various methods have been implemented but a systematic method for uncertainty analysis of waste-LCA studies is lacking. The objective of this paper is (1) to present the sources of uncertainty specifically inherent to waste-LCA studies, (2) to select and apply several ...

biomass of aspergillus niger: uses and applications

fungal biomass of a. niger, the byproduct of citric acid fermentation, proved to be a worth biomaterial which can be so beneficial and practical. in environmental case, it can be a useful biosorbent for decolorization and detoxitation of wastewater samples. it can also be used as a cheap and suitable source for commercial production of some expensive and useful biopolymers such as chitin, chito...
