Description
This dataset represents a disposal mix (technology mix) for 'municipal solid waste'. Recommended use of this dataset: for average municipal/public waste mixtures. It is not suitable for representing any single specific waste type, such as plastics, paper, or cardboard. The composition of municipal solid waste in Beijing is as follows: kitchen waste 66.2%, paper 10.09%, rubber 13.1%, textiles (fibers) 1.2%, wood and bamboo 3.3%, ash and soil 0%, bricks, tiles, and ceramics 3.9%, glass 1%, metals 0.4%, and others 0%. Moisture content is 63.3%, and the higher heating value is 5858. 91 kJ/kg, lower heating value 3870.94 kJ/kg.
The mixing ratio of this technology refers to the Urban and Rural Construction Statistical Yearbook, provincial urban appearance and environmental sanitation data. The proportion of waste incineration is estimated based on China's national conditions.
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.
