Is It Better To Burn or Bury Waste for Clean Electricity Generation?

Environmental Science & Technology, 43(6), 1711–1717.

By: P. Kaplan n, J. DeCarolis n & S. Thorneloe n

MeSH headings : Bioelectric Energy Sources; Environmental Pollution / legislation & jurisprudence; Environmental Pollution / prevention & control; Models, Theoretical; Refuse Disposal / methods; Time Factors
TL;DR: This paper is the first to present a comprehensive set of life-cycle emission factors per unit of electricity generated for these energy recovery options and sensitivity analysis is conducted on key inputs to quantify the variability in the resultant life- cycle emissions estimates.

2009 journal article

Use of Life-Cycle Analysis To Support Solid Waste Management Planning for Delaware

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 43(5), 1264–1270.

By: P. Kaplan n, S. Ranjithan n & M. Barlaz n

MeSH headings : Conservation of Natural Resources / economics; Cost-Benefit Analysis; Delaware; Environmental Pollutants; Greenhouse Effect; Models, Chemical; Planning Techniques; Refuse Disposal / economics; Refuse Disposal / methods; Uncertainty; Waste Management / economics; Waste Management / methods
TL;DR: The results show that implementing a landfill diversion strategy for only a portion of the population is most cost-effective for meeting a county-specific landfill diversion target, and implementation of waste-to-energy offers the mostcost-effective opportunity for GHG emissions reductions.
