The everyday solid waste created by human activity can be used to produce energy from which electricity produced. Municipal trash is currently increasing, has complicated and its disposal. Thus, a suitable process planning are required for lowering waste. necessity develop an alternate source that may as fuel arisen due the depletion of fossil fuels in today’s generation.

An integral component in preventing an avian influenza pandemic is containment and disposal of infected bird (poultry) carcasses. Disposal of carcasses in Subtitle D municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills may be an advantageous option due to their large capacities and facility distribution in the U.S. In this study, the survival of H6N2 avian influenza virus (AIV) was measured in a methanogenic ...

the urban waste collection is one of the major municipal activities that involves large expenditures and difficult operational problems. also, waste collection and disposal have high expenses such as investment cost (i.e. vehicles fleet) and high operational cost (i.e. fuel, maintenance). in fact, making slight improvements in this issue lead to a huge saving in municipal consumption. some inci...

a large portion of municipal waste, disposed in landfills, is organic in nature. this organicmaterial starts decomposing soon after the disposal in landfills. the decomposition leads to the generation ofin situ leachate, and this leachate can contain substantial amounts of contaminants. under arid conditions,leachate is solely generated by waste decomposition, as little input of external water ...
