Determinants of Per Capita Municipal Solid Waste Generation in the Southeastern United States
The aim of this study is to identify and measure the variables which influence per capita municipal solid waste generation in the south-eastern U.S., using the 100 counties of North Carolina as a data set and regression models for statistical analysis. Variables are selected to capture the residential, institutional and commercial components of the municipal solid waste stream, as well as the o...
متن کاملModelling municipal solid waste generation: a review.
The objective of this paper is to review previously published models of municipal solid waste generation and to propose an implementation guideline which will provide a compromise between information gain and cost-efficient model development. The 45 modelling approaches identified in a systematic literature review aim at explaining or estimating the present or future waste generation using econ...
متن کاملHeat Generation in Municipal Solid Waste Landfills
This study was conducted to investigate thermal aspects of municipal solid waste landfills as a function of operational conditions and climatic region. Spatial and temporal distributions of waste temperatures were determined at four landfills located in North America �Michigan, New Mexico, Alaska, and British Columbia�. Temperatures of wastes at shallow depths �extending to 6 to 8 m depth� and ...
متن کاملTechnical, Economic and Environmental Assessment of Electricity Generation from Solid Municipal Waste: Case of Mashhad
The purpose of this study is to assess the possibility of generating energy from waste and reducing the consequences of unconventional waste disposal in urban areas of Mashhad. The findings indicate that among five variants under study, variant 5 which allocated the highest energy efficiency, the lowest costs, and the least amount of greenhouse gases to itself was applicable for the city of Mas...
