Abstract:

Vietnam’s fast economic growth has to a large extent been achieved on the expense of a rapid deterioration of the natural environment, including eutrophication of local water sources. Proper planning is needed to move towards a sustainable wastewater management and one recognized tool for such planning is material flow analysis (MFA). This thesis uses MFA to define the current flows of phosphorus (P) and organic matter, measured as COD, in domestic wastewater and food waste in Sông Công town, Thai Nguyen province, Vietnam. The aim is further to compare two different improved wastewater managem

Abstract:

Four biomass materials, namely peach pips, pine wood, bamboo and Napier grass, and one example of chemical waste, lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), were studied. The biomass types were selected because they were easily accessible locally. The LiPF6 waste is solidified in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). Gasification of this solid is of interest to industry. Prior to the gasification studies, TGA-FTRI analyses were conducted on the biomass samples. This was done to study their thermal behaviour under nitrogen as well as under oxygen. The results indicated that, in general, pyrolysis of biom

Organic waste has been recognised as a major problem in waste management worldwide. Material recovery of key value components from organic waste using a series of novel solvents, ionic liquids (ILs), has been investigated as a potential sustainable management solution. The overall aim of the research described in this thesis is to develop novel methodologies based on ionic liquid extraction that fractionates and recovers value from organic waste either as a source of energy or as a source of feedstock for the chemical and related industries.

Abstract:

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is an attractive waste treatment process in which both pollution control and energy recovery can be achieved. Source-segregated domestic food waste (FW) has a high organic content on a dry weight basis and is rich in lipids and proteins, indicating the potential for a good biogas yield with high methane content. Process instability, however, has often been reported in food waste digesters, which was mainly manifested by the accumulation of volatile fatty acids (VFA) and reduction of specific methane production. Trace element (TE) supplementation has been proved to be a

Currently, only 5% of the 3 million tons of waste, produced by Tshwane per year, is being recycled at landfill sites and yet 80% of the waste is recyclable! (Dekker, F. 2012) Where will we go with all of our waste when there’s no space left for landfill sites? What would happen if landfill sites start to take over our parks and green open spaces?!

In the absence of molecular oxygen an alternate, but slower, pathway becomes the prevalent. The hydroxyl driven mechanism is capable o

Modern societies produce large quantities of municipal solid waste (MSW), which is commonly disposed of by incineration. This has several advantages: it reduces the waste’s volume and sterilizes it while also enabling energy recovery. However, MSW incineration has some notable disadvantages, the most widely debated of which is probably the production and release of persistent organic pollutants (POP) such as polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDF), dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDD), biphenyls (PCB) and naphthalenes (PCN).
