Opportunities for Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions through Residential Waste Management
All human activities have an environmental impact. In particular, the way we choose to manage our residential solid wastes has a direct impact on the generation of methane, carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases (GHG) linked to global warming and climate change. This report provides decisionmakers with a quantitative, comparative …

over 50 years. The process involves the conversion of materials having Carbon and Hydrogen in their chemical structure into clean synthesis gas, syngas, a mixture of Hydrogen (H2) and Carbon Monoxide (CO). Syngas can be used as a source of energy for combustion processes used to generate electricity (gas turbine …
