Landfilling organic waste generates greenhouse gases and contributes to climate change. While the management of has been identified by all tiers Australian government as paramount meeting net zero emissions targets, diversion domestic from landfill is primarily responsibility local government. This review academic grey literature considers developments in food organics garden collections Austra...

Sanitary landfilling is the most common way to dispose solid urban waste; however, improper landfill management may pose serious environmental threats through discharge of high strength polluted wastewater also known as leachate. The treatment of landfill leachate to fully reduce the negative impact on the environment, is nowadays a challenge. In this study, an aerobic sequencing batch reactor ...

This report presents the results of a study that examined alternatives to landfilling the municipal solid wastes (MSW) of New York City. Detailed characterization of the wastes led to their classification, according to materials properties and inherent value, to “recyclable”, compostable”, “combustible”, and “landfillable”. The results showed that the present rates of recycling (16.6%) and comb...

The development of societies and industrial progress cannot be achieved without the use electricity. growing demand for energy degradation environment by current sources force us to look other methods produce it. production renewable from landfill waste reduces environmental problems caused combustion coal, oil natural gas. Therefore, in this work, life cycle assement is used compare different ...

Introduction: In Tehran with a population of 9 million currently, about 2.5 million tons municipal solid waste have been producing annually. Materials and Models: In this study by using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) model an optimal system of waste management of Tehran was recommended. Based on the quantity and quality of waste in Tehran in 2013 and facilities, three scenarios were selected. Fir...

There is a major push by governments and value chain partners to move towards circular options for difficult-to-recycle post-consumer products such as waste mattresses.[1] In the Netherlands alone ~1.5 million mattresses are discarded yearly, of which majority (>60%) incinerated.[2] A sustainable solution recycle required enable Dutch industry meet economy goals set government.[3] This paper...

The disposal of the solid wastes in landfill sites should be properly monitored by analyzing samples from soil, water, and landfill gases within the landfill sites. Nevertheless, ground monitoring scheme requires intensive efforts and cost, and sometime it is difficult to be achieved in large geographic extent. Remote sensing technology has been introduced for waste disposal management and moni...
