Constitutive model for municipal solid waste incorporating mechanical creep and biodegradation-induced compression.
A constitutive model is proposed to describe the stress-strain behavior of municipal solid waste (MSW) under loading using the critical state soil mechanics framework. The modified cam clay model is extended to incorporate the effects of mechanical creep and time dependent biodegradation to calculate total compression under loading. Model parameters are evaluated based on one-dimensional compre...

متن کاملHydrothermal Treatment of Municipal Solid Waste to Produce Solid Fuel
This paper describes the application of innovative hydrothermal technology on local municipal solid waste (MSW) to produce low chlorine content solid co-firing fuel with coal. Raw MSW was treated at temperatures ranging from 210 to 235°C with 30 to 90 minutes holding period. The process yielded slump products which were then naturally dried to 5% moisture content, resulted in dry products with ...
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...
