A detailed characterization of household Municipal Solid Waste

Mathioudakis D., (Corresponding) Papadopoulou K., Lytras G., Pavlopoulos C., Dimopoulos N., Niakas S., Melanitou H., Lekkas D., Lyberatos G.

Topic:

Solid waste management

Reliable data on Municipal Solid Waste composition are paramount for the development of environmentally sound, sustainable and economically viable integrated waste management systems. However, no standardized universally accepted waste characterization protocol has been developed, as there are...Read more

Co-Pyrolysis of Plastic Wastes: Effects of Temperature and Feedstock Ratio on Chemical Composition of Liquid Product

(Corresponding) Özçakır G., Karaduman A.

Topic:

Solid waste management

Co-Pyrolysis of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and Polystyrene (PS) was carried out in a semi-batch glass reactor system. Effects of temperature and feedstock ratio on pyrolytic product yields (gaseous, liquid and solid residue) and chemical composition of the liquid were investigated. All...Read more

Material flow analysis applied to a waste treatment plant in Lombardy (Italy)

(Corresponding) Castro F., Fabbri M., Vaccari M., Cutaia L.

Topic:

Solid waste management

Material flow analysis (MFA) allows to quantify inputs, outputs and stocks of a system and to communicate results visually. It can be used for calculating process effectiveness, losses and for identifying critical points within a system, being useful for strategically intervening in a corporative...Read more
