Description
This dataset represents a disposal mix (technology mix) for "municipal solid waste." The recommended use of this dataset is for average municipal/public waste mixtures. It is not suitable for representing any single specific waste stream, such as plastics, paper, or cardboard. The composition of municipal solid waste in Hubei are as follows: kitchen waste 55.3%, paper 1.5%, rubber 4.5%, textiles (fibers) 0%, wood and bamboo 8.3%, ash and soil 0%, bricks, tiles, and ceramics 27.3%, glass 2%, metals 1.1%, and others 0%. Moisture content is 53.5%, and the higher heating value is 4550. 7 kJ/kg, lower heating value 2783.55 kJ/kg.
Process Description
"Municipal solid waste" is primarily generated from a wide range of activities across many different sectors. "Municipal solid waste" includes the following components: kitchen waste, paper, rubber, textiles (fibers), wood and bamboo, ashes and soil, bricks, tiles and ceramics, glass, metals, and potentially other fractions. This by-product (recyclable or waste) arises from common transformation activities and can therefore be considered for modeling waste outputs of similar composition. In the HiQ database, treatment methods for this by-product include: landfilling – sanitary landfill, municipal incineration. Additionally, this by-product is used in the following process: clinker production.
