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 Hunan are as follows: kitchen waste 25.71%, paper 18.27%, rubber 22.26%, textiles (fibers) 11.24%, wood and bamboo 2.33%, ashes and soil 11.16%, bricks, tiles, and ceramics 1.77%, glass 2.37%, metals 2.03%, others 2.86%. Moisture content: 52. 39%, higher heating value 8525.15 kJ/kg, lower heating value 6747.63 kJ/kg.
This technology's mixing ratio 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.
