Sources of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn in biowaste

open access: yesScience of the Total Environment, 2002
Biowaste, the separately collected organic fraction of municipal solid waste, can be reused for soil conditioning after composting. In this way, environmentally harmful waste management strategies, such as landfilling or incineration, can be reduced. However, frequent application of composts to soil systems may lead to the accumulation of heavy metals ...

Biowaste-to-biomethane or biowaste-to-energy? An LCA study on anaerobic digestion of organic waste

open access: yesJournal of Cleaner Production, 2018
Abstract The study aims to demonstrate the overall environmental sustainability of biomethane production by anaerobic digestion of the separately collected organic fraction of municipal solid waste. There is a great interest in the utilisation of biofuels produced from biowaste in the transport sector, due to the benefits of reduced pollutant ...

Biowastes-to-biofuels

Energy Conversion and Management, 2011
In recent years, there has been a steadily increasing in the amount of solid waste due to the increasing human population and urbanization. Waste materials are generated from manufacturing processes, industries and municipal solid wastes (MSW). Waste-to-energy (WTE) technologies convert waste matter into various forms of fuel that can be used to supply

Demineralisation of Municipal Biowaste Hydrolysates

ChemistrySelect, 2019
Abstract This work reports the demineralisation of soluble biorganic hyrolysates (SBOs) obtained from three materials sampled from a municipal biowaste treatment plant. The SBOs contain mineral and organic matter.

Degradation of household biowaste in reactors

Journal of Biotechnology, 2001
Household derived biowaste was degraded by biological methods. The system involves the combined method of low-solids (up to 10% w/v of total solids (TS)) anaerobic digestion and aerobic degradation for the recovery of energy (biogas) and the production of fine humus-like material which can be used as a soil amender or a substrate for further thermal ...

A state-of-the-art review of biowaste biorefinery

Environmental Pollution, 2021
Biorefineries provide a platform for different industries to produce multiple bio-products enhancing the economic value of the system. The production of these biorefineries has led to an increase in the generation of biowaste. To minimize the risk of environmental pollution, numerous studies have focused on a variety of strategies to mitigate these ...

Thermochemical valorization and characterization of household biowaste

Journal of Environmental Management, 2017
Valorization of municipal solid waste (MSW), by means of energy and material recovery, is considered to be a crucial step for sustainable waste management. A significant fraction of MSW is comprised from food waste, the treatment of which is still a challenge.

Thermogravimetric analysis of biowastes during combustion

Waste Management, 2010
The combustion of sewage sludge (SS), animal manure (AM) and the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) was assessed and compared with that of a semianthracite coal (SC) and of a PET waste by thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. Differences were found in the TG curves obtained for the combustion of these materials accordingly to their respective
