Energy recovery and impact on land use of Maltese municipal solid waste inciner...

Pirotta, F. J. C.; Ferreira, E. C.; Bernardo, C. A.

An investigation of the potential of Maltese Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) for energy recovery is carried in this work together with a preliminary assessment of the corresponding economic and land use impacts. MSW composition data was collected to evaluate the waste combustion enthalpy. Data from 1997 to 2010 allowed the conclusion that an incinerator with a capacity of 32,500kg/h can treat all the waste expectab...


Environmental consequences of Maltese MSW incineration

Bernardo, C. A.; Pirotta, F. J. C.; Ferreira, E. C.

The intensity of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) generation by human and economic activities causes environmental impacts, particularly critical in small insular countries, such as Malta. Thus, an investigation of the potential of Maltese MSW incineration with energy recovery was performed in this work focused on thermodynamic and land use aspects. The electricity potential of an MSW incinerator with associated ele...


Potential for energy recovery from maltese MSW : a thermodynamic analysis

Pirotta, F. J. C.; Bernardo, C. A.; Ferreira, E. C.

An investigation of the Maltese Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) potential for energy recovery is carried in this work. In a first step, MSW composition data was collected to evaluate the waste combustion enthalpy by a weighted average of each fraction, using the corresponding Low Heat Value (LHV). Results indicate that each kilogram of Maltese MSW releases circa 8,726 kJ of energy when combusted. Data from 1997 to ...
