An organic fraction from municipal solid waste (MSW) comprised 38.9% (w/w) glucose (cellulose and starch) indicating its potential as a substrate for bioalcohol production. Microscopy indicated that the fraction was rich in waste paper fibres. Much paper waste comes from shredded office paper (50.4% w/w glucose) which is unrecyclable because of poor fibre length. This, and microbiological hazards associated with the use of MSW led to its choice as model substrate for study.

Abstract:

This study's aim was to investigate the strength of contextual aspects' influences on environmentally ethical behaviour (EEB). A survey method with a selfadministered questionnaire was used and a cross-section of the Muslim male population of New Zealand was taken. The qualitative interviews and email questionnaires were also utilised to further explain the survey results. The linear regression analyses show correlations between contextual aspects (i.e., social, religious, economic, political, and demographic) and EEB (pre-cycling, re-use and recycling). Results indicate that the contextual as

Abstract:

In the waste management system of Peru, there is a lot to fix, change and improve from households areas. In this report is presented why and how necessary is the construction of landfills to have an appropriate place to dispose the waste of the collection .At the same time, the report shows how profitable can be from social, economic and ecologic way, with the investment of treatment plants that use biogas from the landfills to produce energy. Differents solutions – vehicle fuel production, electricity generation etc – are discussed in light of the different economy, geography and social situa

Abstract:

The UK buries about 100 million tonnes of waste a year, of which 25% is municipal solid waste (refuse). The environmental impacts from gas and leachate releases are known and direct risks to health from landfill are reported. Europe has agreed to a Landfill Directive which has set targets for the stepwise reduction in biodegradable municipal waste going to landfill. The anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste in controlled bioreactors is an area that could play an important role in overall evolution towards sustainability by recovering biogas and organic matter. Separated hydrolysis and s

Abstract:

Content: The understanding of how chemical, physical and environmental parameters work during anaerobic digestion production and waste treatment is an important step in improving the efficiency and process stability. This study provides the evolution of the biogas production and the efficiency of the treatment of the anaerobic digestion of solid wastes of tanneries at-line monitored in batch laboratory-scale bioreactors. Leather shavings and sludge from wastewater treatment plants substrates were considered in the study. The findings suggest that AD of the tannery solid waste can be separated

Abstract:

Solid household waste (SHW) include waste generated in the course of human life and activity in the residential and non-residential buildings and are not used at the place of storage. The problem of SHW management for the Kherson region, as well as for others regions of Ukraine, remains unresolved. In localities of Kherson region according to statistics was organized removal of waste sites (landfills and dumps) as of 2013 there are 300 places waste with total area of 457 ha. However, these data should be clarified and completed.

Abstract:

En aquest treball es proposa un procés biotecnològic respectuós del medi ambient per reduir l'impacte negatiu de l'augment dels residus industrials, a causa de l'acceleració del creixement de la població mundial en les últimes dècades. Consisteix en la valorització de residus locals riques en nitrogen, com la fibra de soja, els residus de pel i closca de cafè, per fermentació en estat sòlid (SSF) per obtenir un catalitzador biològic, com ara proteases. Es van dur a terme experiments de SSF en 0,5, 4,5, 10 i 55 L reactors en condicions adiabàtiques al llarg dels 1, 2 i 3 setmanes. Es va p
