Levelized Cost Based Economic Assessment of Waste-to-Energy Conversion Technologies in Pakistan

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...

Environmental assessment for management of waste through energy conversion technologies

Increasing population and changing life style has led to the dramatic increase in waste generation. It has been estimated that global generation of post recycling MSW in populated centers amounts about 1.2 billion ton per year. India alone produces about 90 million tons of MSW per year. If this large amount of waste can be converted into energy then the problem of its management and energy cris...

A Comparative Assessment of Commercial Technologies for Conversion of Solid Waste to Energy

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...
