As an important parameter for estimation of methane generation from landfills, we measured ultimate methane yields (M0 VS) of various municipal solid waste (MSW) components, which were obtained by classifying bulk waste carried into S landfill in Korea. Food wastes exhibited the highest M0 VS of 420mL CH4/g VS. Misc. …

Compost application to agricultural land needs to ensure sustainable development. Hence it is important to determine the fertilizer value and soil conditioning ability of composts, and further to assess the risk of adverse environmental effects, such as excessive nitrate leaching. A lysimeter study was undertaken on poor quality sand to …

There are very few construction and demolition (C&D) waste recycling centres in Brazil. Data relating to C&D waste management and recycling in Brazil were collected and analysed to encourage the building and operation of new units. Based on the results of this analysis, a conceptual model was proposed to perform …
