Generation and Management aims to support the assessment of the performance of Member States’ municipal solid waste management systems, and how they are likely to perform in the future. The model can serve as a tool to compare different future policy scenarios from a broad perspective, including both financial and environmental aspects. Moreover, it is intended to be used as a tool for the early warning system proposed by the European Commission within its 2015 Circular Economy Package, aimed at identifying countries that are at risk of missing the European Union targets on recycling municipal solid waste (MSW) and packaging waste, and the targets on the diversion of waste from landfill. Key model data were last updated in 2017, a task performed by the waste management team of the European Topic Centre on Waste and Materials in a Green Economy (ETC/WMGE), commissioned by the EEA. The necessary data were collected by a consortium led by Eunomia Research & Consulting as part of a study1 for the European Commission to identify Member States at risk of non-compliance with the 2020 recycling target of the Waste Framework Directive. The ETC/WMGE, in cooperation with Eunomia, prepared a questionnaire requesting up-to-date statistics, as well as information on expected future developments, and strategies on the management of MSW in Member States. The questionnaire aimed to update the most relevant data in the model, and to broaden knowledge of Member States’ MSW management systems. An update is a key step in the modelling process, and also provides the best possible representation of country characteristics when it comes to designing the early warning system. The questionnaire was divided into three sections: the current situation, including MSW composition, generation and treatment in place, as well as existing treatment capacities; expectations for the future, including projections of MSW generation, details of policies under implementation that will have an impact in the near future, future treatment capacity, and planned and potential changes to the collection systems; recently implemented and planned measures for increasing MSW recycling rates. Eunomia collected data through the questionnaires and meetings with Member State representatives. The updates to the model’s data were mainly done through analysis of the returned questionnaires, and included MSW generation, composition and treatment data, as well as the baseline scenario for estimated future developments in MSW generation and management. The questionnaires were analysed and requests for clarification and additional information were sent to the Member States through Eunomia. The final answers were then analysed by the ETC/WMGE waste management team. The questionnaires were analysed for inconsistencies, which were corrected based on the most reliable data, and gaps were filled based on the 2015 version of the model or other available data. For the adjustments and gap filling, an understanding of the quality and level of uncertainty in the data was important. One key element of the analysis of the questionnaires was respect for Member States’ answers. Thus, whenever the country answers were not contradictory in any sense, they were used for the update of the model. 1 Early Warning Mechanism - Study to Identify Member States at Risk of Non-compliance with the 2020 target of WFD and to Follow-up the Compliance Promotion Exercise Phase 1 and 2, under Framework Contract ENV.C.2/FRA/2013/0023). 3 After analysing the data, the ETC/WMGE team modelled a set of baselines. ETC/WMGE and EEA waste management experts first analysed the questionnaire answers and other available data

Institutional solid waste management in South Africa as a developing economy is yet to receive the required attention compared to developed countries. The measurement of the characteristics, and composition of solid waste is a fundamental pre-requisite towards creating a sustainable and viable process of solid waste management systems across institutions as this provides adequate and reliable information on the waste generated. This study aimed to determine the variations of waste components in the University of Venda (UNIVEN) by characterisation of the waste generated. Solid waste samples were collected from key activity areas and characterised using the ASTM D5321-92 method for unprocessed municipal solid waste. The recyclable, compostable, and non-recoverable components of the waste generated were found to be 61.7%, 34.4%, and 3.9%, respectively. The results of the waste audit revealed a strong potential for recycling in the institution (61.7%).

Abstract: In this work, the pyrolysis of post-consumer mixed plastic waste (polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS) and polyethylene film (PE)) is carried out. The solid product of the pyrolysis is characterized and tested for its use as adsorbent of lead present in aqueous media. The pyrolysis temperature has a great influence on the solid product yield, decreasing when the temperature in- creases. The highest yield to solid product obtained is from the pyrolysis of film at lower temperature (450 ◦C), reaching almost 14%. The results of product solid characterization reveal that the carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen content decreases with increasing pyrolysis temperature. Furthermore, both the ash and the volatile content are related to the pyrolysis temperature. The ash content is higher when the pyrolysis temperature is higher, while when the temperature increases, a solid product with lower volatile content is obtained. In respect to specific surface area, a higher pyrolysis temperature improves the properties of the solid product as an adsorbent. The adsorption capacity increases as the pyrolysis temperature increases, with the highest value of 7.91 mg/g for the solid obtained in the pyrolysis at 550 ◦C.

Image taken by Abhilash Ram or Sara Berner on 13 February 2013. Printed by Chalmers Reproservice Gothenburg, Sweden 2014 Abstract Waste is one of the biggest challenges faced by our society. If not handled correctly, waste pollutes our natural environment with devastating results. However, it seems almost unavoidable that our society generates waste. Cyclical material use models have been proposed as a more sustainable alternative to our linear take-make-waste production culture. The aim of this licentiate thesis has been to investigate how to recover the material resources that today cannot go back into production, helping to redefine waste as a resource. In order to do that this work first defines a framework to address material flow through society followed by a general background on waste and waste management. The main body of the licentiate describes three studies performed by the author in order explore the topic addressed. The studies investigated (A) how design and waste management collaborate, (B) how to facilitate designing with difficult waste and (C) how the waste system interface can be designed to facilitate resource recovery.

  • Physico-Chemical Properties of Excavated Plastic from Landfill Mining and Current Recycling Routes L. Canopoli1, B. Fidalgo1, F
    Physico-chemical properties of excavated plastic from landfill mining and current recycling routes L. Canopoli1, B. Fidalgo1, F. Coulon1, S.T. Wagland1* 1School of Water, Energy and Environment, Cranfield University, Cranfield, Bedfordshire, MK43 0AL, UK * Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: In Europe over 5.25 billion tonnes of waste has been landfilled between 1995 and 2015. Among this large amount of waste, plastic represents typically 5-25 wt % which is significant and has the potential to be recycled and reintroduced into the circular economy. To date there is still however little information available of the opportunities and challenges in recovering plastics from landfill sites. In this review, the impacts of landfill chemistry on the degradation and/or contamination of excavated plastic waste are analysed. The feasibility of using excavated plastic waste as feedstock for upcycling to valuable chemicals or liquid fuels through thermochemical conversion is also critically discussed. The limited degradation that is experienced by many plastics in landfills (> 20 years) which guarantee that large amount is still available is largely due to thermooxidative degradation and the anaerobic conditions. However, excavated plastic waste cannot be conventionally recycled due to high level of ash, impurities and heavy metals. Recent studies demonstrated that pyrolysis offers a cost effective alternative option to conventional recycling. The produced pyrolysis oil is expected to have similar characteristics to petroleum diesel oil. The production of valuable product 1 from excavated plastic waste will also increase the feasibility of enhanced landfill mining projects. However, further studies are needed to investigate the uncertainties about the contamination level and degradation of excavated plastic waste and address their viability for being processed through pyrolysis.

  • Characterisation of Municipal Solid Waste Composition Into Model Inputs
    CHARACTERISATION OF MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE COMPOSITION INTO MODEL INPUTS J. LAMBORN Faculty of Engineering and Industrial Sciences, Swinburne University of Technology, Australia Email: [email protected] SUMMARY: Landfill gas generation models require the conversion of waste composition data into model inputs. Waste composition data is usually collected in the form of waste fractions: green waste, food, plastics, metals, paper, inert etc. These waste fractions need to be characterised into cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin and inert; for inputs into models. This paper analyses the work that has been done on this characterisation and identifies where future work could be undertaken to help with the conversion of waste composition data into model inputs. 1. INTRODUCTION A landfill gas generation model is a tool that provides an estimation of generated methane or total landfill gas volume over time from a particular volume of waste. The purpose of a model is to describe (in simple terms) the complex changes during decomposition of waste in a landfill. For a model to accurately reflect the processes within a landfill, it must take into account the complex nature of the microbiological decomposition of waste within a landfill, the nature of the landfill itself, the chemical reactions and the ability of gases and liquids to move through the landfill. These types of models are known as component models and are the next generation of landfill models. The leading component models are LDAT (University of Southampton, UK), POSE (Technical University Braunshweig, Germany), HBM (Napier University, UK) and MODUELO (University of Cantabria, Spain). These models were all compared as part of the Hydro-Physico-Mechanics 2 (HPM2) Challenge to landfill modellers in 2007 (Ivanova, Richards et al.

It originates from businesses, the government and households and following appropriate management techniques, it can be used as an input to economic activity for instance through material or energy recovery. Waste is produced by all activities and although it is a locally arising problem it has both local and global effects. Societies need to dispose their waste products creating a source of environmental pollution. Sustainable waste management requires the combination of skills and knowledge of physical sciences and engineering together with economics, ecology, human behaviour, entrepreneurship and good governance. This paper discusses extensively the policy framework and the legislative background around waste and its management in the EU and worldwide. In this way, it focuses on the treatment options for waste under the Circular Economy approach having in mind the idea of closing the loop and hence achieving a more efficient use of resources.

  • 2 Waste Characterisation
    Holger Ecke, Anders Bergman & Anders Lagerkvist 2 WASTE CHARACTERISATION 2.1 Summary This chapter gives an introduction to the methodology for waste characterisation. Emphasis is placed on investigations including physical, chemical and biological analyses, leaching tests and landfill simulations. Basic methods to evaluate and present the collected data are outlined by means of examples. 2.2 Introduction Wastes can have different characteristics. The management of a particular waste must be adapted to its characteristics, in order to get a desired landfill function. Landfill technology, landfill siting and choices of recipients are affected by the waste’s properties. Waste characterisation is mostly used in order to assess future environmental impacts from the disposal of waste. The concept pollution potential has a great importance in the analysis of risks. It is a measure of the waste’s ability to pollute the environment. Factors that affect the pollution potential are primarily the concentration gradients between the waste and its environment and the mobilisation rates of pollutants under various conditions. The pollution potential of a waste decreases through certain processes, e.g. by degradation, complex formation and emissions. The landfill is stabilised with regard to its setting, when emissions approach the background fluxes of the site. Waste properties are systematically documented through characterisation. The properties can be independent of the surroundings, but they can also depend on the interaction between waste and its environment. The result of a characterisation is a simplified description of the real waste behaviour, which can be used to choose landfill strategy and technical solutions. Characterisation of waste poses several difficulties.

A site-specific study was carried out in order to determine the components and estimate the quantity of residential solid waste generation in the town. Structured questionnaires were applied to collect primary information such as size of households, educational level, monthly income etc. from households. The results from the study was then applied to determine the waste management option for residential waste in Amassoma town The results obtained revealed that the total solid waste generated in Amassoma is 1115.2kg/day from domestic activities. Furthermore, analysis of the sample collected showed that 51.34% of compostable waste (garbage) is generated, 33.62% of combustible waste and 15.04% of incombustible waste is generated in Ammasoma. The study also showed that dumpsite is the current waste disposal option in Amassoma. As Amssoma is a riverine area, the use of landfill for the purpose of solid waste disposal is not a good option because it can lead to eutrophication.
