03. APPLICATION OF IWM2 SOFTWARE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL EFFICIENCY ASSESSMENT OF SOLID WASTE BURNING SCENARIOS IN HAI DUONG CITY

Tóm tắt

It is estimated in 2020 that there is about 1300 tons of domestic waste treated per day in Hai Duong city. Therefore, the treatment technique which enables energy recovery a priority for domestic solid waste management in order to reduce the burial rate according to the National Strategy for Integrated Management of Solid Waste until 2025, and Vision toward 2050 and the Decision 26/2020/QD-UBND of the People’s Committee of Hai Duong province is urgent. It is in this context that the thermal method treatment of solid waste provides following advantages: minimizing the volume of disposable solid waste; reducing methane emissions; generating less leachate and occupying less land, etc. The most recent technologies used in the thermal treatment process including combustion and process for producing pellet fuels (or pallets) have shown their great potential for energy recovery. This study is carried out in order to make a comparative environmental analysis of selected solid waste treatment options using IWM-2 model. The results will not only serve as the basis for the selection of solid waste treatment technology for Hai Duong city, but also make a contribution to development of the suitable waste management system
