Catalyst durability in steam reforming of thermally decomposed waste woodJournal of Material Cycles and Waste Management - Tập 12 - Trang 10-16 - 2010
Jun Kobayashi, Katsuya Kawamoto
Thermal gasification and reforming technologies applicable over a wide temperature range were investigated for high efficiency and for the calorific value of the gas evolved from organic waste such as woody debris. The durability of the reforming catalyst and the availability of catalyst regeneration were investigated using laboratory-scale catalytic reformers and a gasifier. Commercial Ni-based c...... hiện toàn bộ

Application of system dynamics modeling for evaluation of different recycling scenarios in SingaporeJournal of Material Cycles and Waste Management - Tập 19 - Trang 1177-1185 - 2016
Apostolos Giannis, Miaoju Chen, Ke Yin, Huanhuan Tong, Andrei Veksha
The influence of socioeconomic factors, such as population and rapid economic growth, and the change of consumption and living patterns make waste management in Singapore, a complex issue. Due to limited land and resources, the solid waste management scheme requires a comprehensive approach. Therefore, system dynamics (SD) modeling was applied to assess alternative strategies for solid waste manag...... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluation of urban solid-waste generation and safety consciousness of waste collectors amidst COVID-19 pandemicJournal of Material Cycles and Waste Management - Tập 24 - Trang 1948-1957 - 2022

This study investigates solid-waste handling practices by municipal waste collectors during COVID-19 pandemic period in Osogbo urban areas with the intention of assessing measures put in place for preventing possible spread of the disease. Data for the study were obtained from primary and secondary sources. Primary data were acquired through questionnaire administration on the 5% of waste collecto...... hiện toàn bộ
Economic evaluation of thermochemical conversion of municipal solid waste to syngas: a case study of Cape Town municipalityJournal of Material Cycles and Waste Management - Tập 25 - Trang 1179-1190 - 2022
Ismail Babatunde Adefeso, Daniel I. Ikhu-Omoregbe, Yusuf Makarfi Isa
Thermochemical conversions of the combustible components of municipal solid waste (MSW) minimize the emissions and net effects of greenhouse gas from open incineration, landfill and other associated challenges of traditional MSW management. The thermochemical conversions such as incineration, pyrolysis, and gasification offer a cleaner approach to waste-to-energy/chemical for sustainable MSW manag...... hiện toàn bộ
Dechlorination of polyvinyl chloride in NaOH/ethylene glycol solution by microwave heatingJournal of Material Cycles and Waste Management - Tập 11 - Trang 19-22 - 2009
Fumio Osada, Toshiaki Yoshioka
This study investigated the dehydrochlorination of flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) containing 59.2% PVC, 29.7% dioctyl phthalate (DOP), and approximately 12% stabilizers. Flexible PVC was treated with NaOH/ethylene glycol (NaOH/EG) solutions at NaOH concentrations in the range 0.5–4 mol/l and was heated in a microwave heater at a temperature between 100° and 160°C for 0–30 min. All chlorides wer...... hiện toàn bộ
Modification of waste tire pyrolytic oil as base fluid for synthetic lube oil blending and production: waste tire utilization approachJournal of Material Cycles and Waste Management - Tập 22 - Trang 1258-1269 - 2020
Emmanuel E. Okoro, Nehemiah O. Erivona, Samuel E. Sanni, Kale B. Orodu, Kevin C. Igwilo
This study provides an environmentally friendly process for the production of waste tire pyrolytic oil from fast pyrolysis for use in lube oil production. The produced waste tire pyrolytic oil was further distilled to provide an almost pure base fluid for production of lube oil. The distilled pyrolytic oil was further transformed to lube oil via polyol synthesis. Characterization of the distilled ...... hiện toàn bộ
An ICT driven intervention for transforming waste to wealth: methodic development and assessment of IVRI-Waste Management Guide AppJournal of Material Cycles and Waste Management - Tập 23 - Trang 1544-1562 - 2021
Amandeep Singh, Rupasi Tiwari, Triveni Dutt
Global waste production is pegging at unforeseen heights and alarming for its sustainable management. Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) can play an unequivocal role and warrants better information dissemination to larger masses in a short span of time. Therefore, for developing a need-based and effective mobile app, a study was conducted in Ludhiana district of Punjab on a randomly...... hiện toàn bộ
