“…Nesta norma também são incluídos os lodos oriundos dos sistemas de tratamento de água, os resíduos gerados em equipamentos e instalações de controle de poluição, ou outros que exijam tratamentos e soluções técnicas para seu descarte adequado. A distribuição final dos RSU e sua disposição final constituem um grave problema ambiental não apenas no Brasil, mas em todo o mundo, pois os resíduos são comumente descartados a céu aberto nos lixões, portanto uma deposição correta destes resíduos, bem como sua utilização tende a crescer (Silva, et al, 2017;Santos, et al, 2018).…”

The need in the use of renewable energy added to the problem of collection and final disposal of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) in large urban areas shows the importance of the correct management of this waste. In this context, the use of the gases generated from the degradation of these wastes is essential. In the present work an estimation is made for the biogas production as well as the economic feasibility of the use of the s biogas generated in a landfill and a composting yard sized for the city of Campinas - SP, between the years of 2018 and 2038. Landfill Gas Emissions Model (LandGEM) and the Waste Reduction Model were used to estimate the greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions. Three scenarios were analyzed using the WARM method and scenario 3 was the one that presented the greatest GHG emission reduction and the second-best scenario in terms of energy consumption. Also, the LandGEM estimated the production of methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2) and other gases. The amount of biogas generated for the 20 years of production was 934,872,000 m3, corresponding to the life of the landfill. The study shows that an installed power of 4MW results in the installation of a financially viable enterprise to generate electricity with different dolar values that varies between R$2.80 to R$5.80. In addition, the environmental advantages are the reduction in GHG emissions and the contribution to an effective management of municipal solid waste in large urban areas.

“…In this work, the production of DRH from palm oil fatty acid distillate (PFAD) was elaborated and a technoeconomical evaluation of a heat integrated HRD production plantRD was attractive for investment with a VPN of 61.89 M $ (KANTAMA et al, 2015) . Silva et al (2017) aimed at theoretically determining the electric power of LFG using the Maximum Net Benefit (MNB) methodology, taking into account the economic, demographic and regional aspects of the Inter-municipal Consortium of the Micro-region of Alto Sapucaí for Landfill (CIMASAS, as an acronym in Portuguese), located in the southern part of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. To this end, the prognosis for a 20-year period of household solid waste generation in this region has been estimated and quantified on the basis of population data in order to estimate LFG production and energy that can be generated.…”

The present work aimed to perform a detailed search on the methods applicable to the calculation of economic viability. The database used to develop this systematized literature review was Scopus Elsevier, accessed through the Capes Journal Portal. The stu dy allowed to obtain a theoretical contribution to the accomplishment of the general objective of this dissertation. For each method, the resulting articles 3 were analysed and selected for presentation of a brief summary in order to exemplify the content available. It was possible to observe the state of the art of the theme, since the methodology allowed to identify the years with the highest frequency of periodical publication, and authors who published that subject, the countries with more engagement in this context, the types of mostly used publication and the areas of knowledge with the highest volume of published articles .It is also, possible to verify that the method tends to be increasingly applied, mainly within the area of Engineering, which was the area that stood out in this study ,due to its flexibility to apply it in different scenarios. It was also found that China is the country with the most indexed documents on this basis, according to this issue.

“…It is reported that less than 10% of the methane potential is being captured and utilized [35]. Landfill gas at a high concentration also causes the risk of explosion [36] and odor problems [37]. Due to the heterogeneous nature of MSW, unreliable data on production rate, diversity in collection and treatment, and the complex biological processes involved in an accurate estimation of GHG, methane emission is quite complicated.…”

Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Solid Waste Management in Saudi Arabia—Analysis of Growth Dynamics and Mitigation Opportunities

The continuous growth in population, urbanization, and industrial development has been increasing the generation of solid waste (SW) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Consequently, the associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emission is also following an increasing trend. The collection and use of greenhouse gases emitted from solid waste management practices are still limited. A causality analysis examined the driving factors of the emissions from solid waste management. The methane (CH4) emissions from municipal solid waste (MSW) increased with an increase in gross domestic product (GDP) per capita and urban population, and an increase in foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows and literacy rate was likely to reduce CH4 emissions from municipal solid waste and vice versa. The CH4 emission generated from industrial solid wastes was found to be positively related to GDP per capita, urban population, and FDI inflows. However, a decrease in the unemployment rate was likely to increase CH4 emissions from industrial solid wastes. The future greenhouse gas emissions were projected under different possible socio-economic conditions. The scenario analysis based on different variations of population and GDP growth revealed that methane emission from total waste would increase at an average annual rate of 5.13% between 2020 and 2050, and is projected to reach about 4000 Gg by the end of the year 2050. Although the Kingdom has been taking some initiatives towards climate change mitigation, it has significant opportunities to adopt some of the best practices in solid waste management including reduction, recycling, composting and waste-to-energy, and carbon capture and utilization. This study also put emphasis on developing appropriate policy approaches for climate change mitigation based on the circular economy which is gaining momentum in the Kingdom.
