Gas emission of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) from 19 commercial municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerators in China are investigated. The emission concentrations of PCDD/Fs were 0.042-2.461 ng TEQ Nm(-3) with an average value of 0.423 ng TEQ Nm(-3). The emissions of PCDD/Fs from 16 MSW incinerators were below the MEP regulation level (1.0 ng I-TEQ ...

Minnesota's municipal solid waste has grown much faster than its population since the state began measuring waste generation in 1991. It is not clear where the growth in solid waste is coming from, whether it is residential, commercial, or a combination. It is essential to learn where, and why the waste is growing in order to develop effective public policies for addressing this problem. This p...

Is not yet possible to create a full-fledged municipal solid waste management industry in Russia, as private investors currently do consider this area promising for investment, even if there is positive domestic experience. Since the механизмыfree market mechanisms have worked, it state that has main task of forming all infrastructure necessary MSW management, so purpose article directions use ...

waste is a by-product of our daily activities, which poses a serious threat to societies all over the world. in this study, life cycle assessment (lca) methodology was used to determine municipal solid waste (msw) management strategy for minna, niger state, nigeria. three scenarios were modelled as alternatives to the current waste management system in minna. the baseline scenario was the exist...

OBJECTIVE African men who have sex with men often sell sex to men, and MSM who sell sex (MSM-SW) often also have female partners. We compared sexual risk behaviour of MSM-SW who were sexually active with female partners (bisexual MSW) to MSM-SW with only male partners (exclusive MSW). DESIGN Descriptive behavioural study METHODS : A novel, validated daily event and partner diary self-comple...

Public-private partnerships in urban environmental services have witnessed increased interest in recent years primarily to reform the weak performance of the public sector, reduce cost, improve efficiency, and ensure environmental protection. In this context, successful public-private partnerships require a thorough analysis of opportunities, a deliberate attention to process details, and a con...

In the present paper, a new system of purpose built landfill (PBLF) has been proposed for the control of methane emissions from municipal solid waste (MSW), by considering all favourable conditions for improved methane generation in tropical climates. Based on certain theoretical considerations multivariate functional models (MFMs) are developed to estimate methane mitigation and energy generat...

Landfilling is the most applied solid waste management method in developing countries, which leads to a large amount of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It thus imperative develop strategies for evaluating different economically viable scenarios mitigate GHG According Paris Agreement, Kazakhstan planned decrease emissions by 25% 2050 as compared 1990 levels, while reaching carbon neutrality 2060...
