Due to rapid growing of population and active lifestyle, massive amounts municipal solid waste (MSW) are produced worldwide. The MSW can harm the environment threaten land if dumping sites not managed scientifically. geotechnical properties key parameters required in landfill operations management facilities. Hence, presence data assist engineers selecting possible solutions for extension obtai...

In the analysis and design of municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills, there are many uncertainties associated with the properties of MSW during and after MSW placement. Several studies are performed involving different laboratory and field tests to understand the complex behavior and properties of MSW, and based on these studies, different models are proposed for the analysis of time dependent s...

Eff ective management of municipal solid waste (MSW) in Pacifi c developing member countries (DMCs) is diffi cult because of several country-specifi c characteristics. These include limited land area, customary land ownership; environmental fragility; limited human and fi nancial capacity; and in some countries, a heavy reliance on tourism. The challenges mean that selecting technologies that a...

Appropriate vehicle routing is critical for collecting municipal solid waste (MSW) efficiently. Conventional empirical routing is not easily altered in response to rapidly changing waste management plans and generation. An enhanced model is proposed herein to solve a MSW collection routing problem involving a homogenous fleet. A minimum cost flow method is applied to pre-process the original co...

This study was performed to investigate the effect of desalinated underground seawater (named as 'magma seawater', MSW) of Jeju Island in Korea on lipid metabolism and antioxidant activity. MSW was collected from underground of Han-Dong in Jeju Island, and freely given to high fat diet (HFD)-fed C57BL/6 mice for 10 weeks. Although there were no significant differences in the body weight changes...

The COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized disasters related to environmental topics, human health, social lifestyles, and economic systems around the world. may further spread through municipal solid waste (MSW), if it is collected, handled, transported, or disposed in an improper way. current paper provides overview of multiple challenges that introduced various tasks MSW management including impac...

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from municipal solid waste (MSW) management significantly contribute to high global warming potential (GWP). However, most studies have failed to facilitate identifying MSW management schemes capable of comprehensively meeting the goals from decision-makers at different hierarchical levels under uncertainties. This study develops an inexact bi-level linear program...

to compare potential of two organic materials including sewage sludge (ss) and municipal solid wastecompost (msw) on micronutrients entry to soil, a research was conducted as split-plot arrangement basedon randomized complete block design with three replications in research field of sari agriculturaluniversity. main-plot (fertilizer treatments) included 20 and 40 ton/ha ss, 20 and 40 ton/ha ss ...

Solid waste was an unavoidable by-product of most human activities. management played a significant role in reducing and increasing recycling the MSW sector. The purpose this study to discuss effects environmental factors on variables such as municipal solid (MSW), per capita, rate socioeconomic population economic performance from selected countries or economies. used OECD countries, namely, S...
