The objective of the work was to provide a method to predict CO2 and NH3 yields during composting of the biodegradable fraction of municipal solid wastes (MSW). The compostable portion of MSW was simulated using three principal biodegradable components, namely mixed paper wastes, yard wastes and food wastes. Twelve laboratory runs were carried out at thermophilic temperatures based on the princ...

One third of the artichoke production is used in industrial processes, where up to 70% 85% of the initial raw material is transformed into solid wastes. For an adequate management of these wastes, it is necessary to know their water sorption properties, because physical, chemical and biological changes which occur during their storage depend on water-solid interactions. The objectives of this w...

The goal of sustainable management of municipal solid waste (MSW), integrated planning required by financial support to control the situation. Life cycle assessment, categorisation, recycling of wastes and proper landfilling are required.

Waste is a continually growing problem at global and regional as well local levels. Solid wastes arise from human animal activities that are normally discarded useless or unwanted. In other words, solid may be defined the organic inorganic waste materials produced by various of society which have lost their value to first user. As result rapid increase in production consumption, urban rejects g...
