the physical properties of the municipal solid waste (msw) in kahrizak landfill (tehran, iran) and its changes due to aging were investigated in this research. a study of the components of the fresh msw in this landfill showed that more than 60% of it was made from the wastes of foods, fruits, vegetables and organic materials. next to that, paper/cardboard and plastics, with contributions of 14...

Two innovative control technologies for air pollution from the combustion of municipal solid waste (MSW) are discussed. The system concepts of Selective Cat­ alytic Reduction (SCR) and the Electron Beam (E­ Beam) process are presented, along with the extent of demonstrated experience. Estimated capital and op­ erating costs are calculated for each system for oper­ ation on a 1000 tons/day MSW m...

Gasification is the thermochemical conversion of organic feedstocks mainly into combustible syngas (CO and H(2)) along with other constituents. It has been widely used to convert coal into gaseous energy carriers but only has been recently looked at as a process for producing energy from biomass. This study explores the potential of gasification for energy production and treatment of municipal ...

This paper assesses the incineration capacity requirement of the Province of Turin through a detailed analysis of the mass streams and the properties of residual Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). Historical data series were elaborated to study the trend evolution of household generation and separate collection. Residual MSW material compositions were calculated for each year over an observed period ...

Municipal solid waste (MSW) is biodegradable in landfills under anaerobic conditions. The evolution of the hydro-biochemical-mechanical (HBM) processes during degradation investigated first through experiments and subsequently modelling. Three well-characterised MSW specimens from US landfill sites with significantly different compositions ranging ‘waste-rich’ to ‘soil-rich’ were degraded large...

Automated computerized scoring systems (ACSSs) are being increasingly used to analyze text in many educational settings. Nevertheless, the impact of misspelled words (MSW) on scoring accuracy remains to be investigated in many domains, particularly jargon-rich disciplines such as the life sciences. Empirical studies confirm that MSW are a pervasive feature of human-generated text and that despi...

Nowadays, municipal solid waste (MSW) management is one of the most critical issues. MSW may threaten environment; however, concerning high organic fraction content can be useful. This study aimed to compare suitability mechanically sorted (OF) and source-segregated biowaste for biofertilizer usage. The compost effluents compositions were analyzed. Compost derived from applied soil, while, afte...

Recent data in S-Kam favor the large mixing angle MSW (LMA-MSW) solution. How does one get the LMA-MSW solution as well as the maximal mixing of the atmospheric neutrinos in theory? It is not easy to reproduce the nearly bi-maximal mixings with LMA-MSW solution in GUT models[1, 2, 3]. The non-abelian flavor symmetry S3L × S3R or O3L × O3R leads to the LMA-MSW solution naturally[4, 5]. The mass ...

We generalise the biswapped network Bsw(G) to obtain a multiswapped network Msw(H ;G), built around two graphs G and H . We show that the network Msw(H ;G) lends itself to optoelectronic implementation and examine its topological and algorithmic. We derive the length of a shortest path joining any two vertices in Msw(H ;G) and consequently a formula for the diameter. We show that if G has conne...
