The dataset represents the waste management activity of \"municipal solid waste\" in a sanitary landfill. The recommended use of this dataset: for average municipal/public waste mixtures. It is not suitable to represent any single specific waste, such as plastics, paper, cardboard. The characteristics of municipal solid waste in the Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, are as follows: kitchen waste 50.65%, paper 13.98%, rubber 17.04%, textile (fiber) 5.16%, wood bamboo 6.68%, ash soil 0%, brick瓦 ceramic 0.32%, glass 4.02%, metal 1.26%, other 0%. Moisture content is 57% 03%, higher heating value 7089.1 kJ/kg, lower heating value 5179.22 kJ/kg. The carbon fraction of initial waste, that is, the biogenic share is 60.4%. The proportion of unoxidized and recyclable metals in the waste (excluding very small or very thin components): Iron: 60.03%; Aluminum: 17.81%; Copper: 72.83%. The overall degradation rate of waste in 100 years: 18.73%. The degradability of the components that make up the waste: Paper: 27%; Mixed cardboard: 32% 4% plastics: 1%; laminated materials: 18%; laminated packaging, such as drink cartons: 18%; composite goods, like diapers: 18%; glass: 0%; textiles: 12%; minerals: 0%; natural products: 27%; compostable materials: 27%; inert metals: 10%; volatile metals: 0%; batteries: 0%; electronics: 0%; landfill gas capture and utilization produce 2.26E-04 kWh of electricity and 8.13E-01 MJ of useful heat.
