A STUDY ON ENERGY PRODUCTION AND GHG MITIGATION POTENTIAL FROM MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE OF EDİRNE

Abstract

Solid waste originated problems are one of the major environmental problems in Turkey. The Ministry of Environment and Urban Planning in The Republic of Turkey foresees a solution with the Regional Solid Waste Disposal Facilities over the associations that will be formed by more than one municipality. In this context, Edirne Solid Waste Management Association (EDİKAB) was established in order to realize waste management at regional level. In this study, the application example of EDİKAB solid waste disposal plant is evaluated. The amount of waste to be collected for the years 2020 and 2045 in the region is calculated as 94,665 tons/year and 274,497 tons/ year, respectively. Solid wastes to be disposed of are classified as packing wastes to be recovered, organic wastes to be composted and wastes to be landfilled. Packaging waste will be collected separately, classified and baled in sorting plant. Landfill gas production is calculated 3.8 million m3/year and 15 million m3/year for 2020 and 2045, respectively. EDİKAB case study represents up to 90% of GHG emission reduction can be achievable in case of converting LFG into electricity, by producing 7288; 13384 and 28673 MWh cumulative electricity from 2016 to 2020, 2030 and 2045, respectively.
