Environmental Impact Assessment of Municipal Solid Waste Management Incorporating Mechanical Treatment of Waste and Incineration in Hangzhou, China
(Elsevier, 2016)
Municipal solid waste (MSW) management is becoming increasingly popular around the world
as a means of accommodating the increasing amounts of waste that the growing global
population generates. China currently produces ...
Impact of utilizing solid recovered fuel on the global warming potential of cement production and waste management system: A life cycle assessment approach
(SAGE Publishing, 2020-12-25)
Cement production is responsible for a significant share of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. A potential option to reduce the cement production emissions is to use alternative fuels which can have also an impact on ...
Wooden and Plastic Pallets: A Review of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Studies
(MDPI, 2019-10-17)
Pallets are the tiny cogs in the machine that drive transportation in the global economy. The profusion of pallets in today’s supply chain warrants the investigation and discussion of their respective environmental impacts. ...
Carbon footprint of different recovery options for the repulping reject from liquid packaging board waste treatment process
(Elsevier, 2021-10-13)
Liquid packaging board (LPB) is an integral part of storing and transporting liquid food. In addition to its significant advantages, LPB has been challenging the existing waste management sector since its introduction into ...
Environmental and economic perspective of waste-derived activators on alkali-activated mortars
(Elsevier, 2020-10-14)
Alkali-activated binders have been considered a low carbon alternative to cement and are produced by reacting aluminosilicate precursor with an alkali-activator. However, alkali-activators have been observed to be a major ...
Environmental Assessment of Alkali-Activated Mortars Using Different Activators
(CISA Publisher, 2019-10)
This study sheds light on the environmental performance of three alkali-activated mortars (AAMs) using sodium hydroxide, sodium silicate powder and 2-part aqueous alkali solutions respectively, as activators. A comparative ...

(Elsevier Ltd., 2021-09-25)
Life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology was applied to assess five locally developed mix designs for a 20 m low-height noise barrier (LHNB) categorized as: precast Portland cement concrete (S0-baseline scenario), two precast ...
Influence of different factors in the life cycle assessment of mixed municipal solid waste management systems – A comparison of case studies in Finland and China
(Elsevier, 2017)
The life cycle assessment (LCA) of municipal solid waste (MSW) management systems is typically rather arduous due to extensive data acquisition needed to calculate the direct and avoided emissions of the systems. A possibility ...
Environmental impacts of wooden, plastic, and wood-polymer composite pallet: a life cycle assessment approach
(Springer Nature, 2021-07-13)
Purpose
Waste recycling is one of the essential tools for the European Union’s transition towards a circular economy. One of the possibilities for recycling wood and plastic waste is to utilise it to produce composite ...
Integrating Pyrolysis or Combustion with Scrubbing to Maximize the Nutrient and Energy Recovery from Municipal Sewage Sludge
(MDPI, 2021-08-04)
