Processing and energy recovery of high calorific M(B)T fractions in Germany© Wasteconsult International (5/2011)
In Germany, there are currently existing 46 MBT-Plants and about 20 up to 30 MTPlants operating a total capacity of around 8 million tons. Most of the plants meanwhile possess about almost 6 years operating experience and became an important part of Germany's waste industry.
Bioreactor and conventional landfill: IFG modelling after three management years of two compared cells in Sonzay, France© IWWG International Waste Working Group (10/2007)
The experiences lead until now with in situ leachate reinjection have always confirmed a theory that is spread hrough the waste management research circle: bioreactor degrades biodegradable waste more rapidly than traditional landfill does, but the important question is “how much faster?” This answer, even if it could be foreseen with several modelizations, shall never be ensured until confirmed by many full scale experiments. The aim of the work presented in this publication is to elaborate and validate a forward-looking model able to compare the landfill bioreactor cell located in the site of Sonzay (France), operated with the leachate reinjection technique, with another cell of the same site run as a traditional landfill (called witness cell).
