Hydrodechlorination/detoxification of PCDDs, PCDFs, and co-PCBs in fly ash by using calcium polysulfide
Publication year: 2012Source:Waste ManagementMasaaki Tabata, Abdul Ghaffar, Akifumi Shono, Keiichi Notomi Dioxins like polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCSDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are mainly emitted from waste incinerators (WIs) and have beco...
Triboelectrostatic separation for granular plastic waste recycling: A review
Publication year: 2012Source:Waste ManagementGuiqing Wu, Jia Li, Zhenming Xu The world's plastic consumption has increased incredibly in recent decades, generating more and more plastic waste, which makes it a great public concern. Recycling is the best treatment for plastic waste since it cannot on...
CH4/CO2 ratios indicate highly efficient mhane oxidation by a pumice landfill cover-soil
Publication year: 2012Source:Waste ManagementChris Pratt, Adrian S. Walcroft, Julie Deslippe, Kevin R. Tate Landfills that generate too little biogas for economic energy recovery can potentially offset methane (CH4) emissions through biological oxidation by methanotrophic bacteria in cover soils. Th...

Environmental impact assessment of leachate recirculation in landfill of municipal solid waste by comparing with evaporation and discharge (EASEWASTE)
Publication year: 2012Source:Waste ManagementWei Xing, Wenjing Lu, Yan Zhao, Xu Zhang, Wenjing Deng, Thomas H. Christensen In some arid regions where landfill produces minimal amount of leachate, leachate recirculation is suggested as a cost-effective option. However, its long-term impacts to enviro...
