The treatment of organic waste from household in the Danish-German border region is very diverse, the Danish area only uses incineration for the treatment while the German system includes combined biogas and composting, mechanical and biological treatment and incineration. Data on all parts of the organic waste treatment has been collected including waste composition data and data from treatmen...

As the rate of consumption of plastic materials in the world is greatly expanded, more waste plastics are generated. In recent years, their generation amount in Korea becomes about four million tons per year, according to data from the National Institute of Environmental Research. The disposal of waste plastic is mostly achieved by conventional ways such as landfill or incineration. However, th...

Development of efficient means for the recovery of valuable resources from solid waste materials is a critical requirement for future Advanced Life Support (ALS) systems that will be needed to support long-duration manned mission in space. Of particular importance are technologies that may be employed in hypogravity and microgravity environments. Currently three solid waste processing technolog...

In Romania, the waste materials problem is becoming more and more acute due to the increase in their quantity and of the negative impact on the environment. An important waste category is represented by the medical solid waste materials that belong to the high contamination risk category. The source of these waste materials is hospitals and clinics typical units from the point of view of the ge...

Elevated medical waste has urged the improvement of sustainable treatments. A bibliometric analysis is initially conducted to investigate scientific development management pinpoint publication trends, influential articles, journals and countries study hotspots. Publications on its sharply increased since 2020. The most article was written by Klemeš et al., “Waste Management Research” productive...

Abstract The aim of this paper is to assess the causal relationship among innovation in environment-related technologies, per capita income, and three major waste disposal operations (landfill, recycling, incineration) for Korea. A time-series analysis over frequency domain (Breitung–Candelon Spectral Granger causality) applied, followed by Artificial Neural Networks experiments 1985–2016 perio...

European incineration of community refuse has reached an advanced state of the art. The author visited 13 large modem incinerators in 7 countries. The three most note­ worthy operating plants afe described, with emphasis on steam generation, low dust emission from the stacks, and principal features of design. Applicability to American practice is evaluated.
