Literature Survey on Greenhouse Gases and Mathematical Estimates From Solid Waste Management

Abstract

Although solid wastes and greenhouse gas emissions are different environmental problems, they are highly dependent. A significant amount of greenhouse gas emissions are released to the atmosphere in the process from the collection of solid wastes in the cities to the disposal. This rate increases especially in disposal operations. Conventional methods such as wild-landfill, composting and incineration are the main sources of greenhouse gas. Knowing the amount of emissions that may occur from all these operations is very important in order to take necessary measures. As a result of the studies carried out in the world, many mathematical models have been developed and used for predicting greenhouse gas emissions. With the help of models, necessary measures can be taken in order to reduce the amount of emissions or to prevent them completely. In this study, greenhouse gas emissions from waste management were examined and information about modeling methods was given. With this study, it is aimed to be the source of studies on modeling of emissions from future waste management.

Katı Atık Yönetiminden Meydana Gelebilecek Sera Gazları ile Matematiksel Tahminleri Üzerine Literatür Araştırması

Abstract

Katı atıklar ve sera gazı emisyonları birbirlerinden farklı çevre problemi gibi algılanmalarına rağmen birbirlerine oldukça bağımlı bir yapıya sahiptirler. Kentlerde oluşan katı atıkların toplanmasından bertaraf edilmelerine kadar geçen süreçte, atmosfere önemli miktarda sera gazı emisyonu salınmaktadır. Bu oran özellikle bertaraf edilme sürecinde daha da artmaktadır. Vahşi-düzenli depolama, kompostlaştırma, yakma gibi konvansiyonel yöntemler de başlıca sera gazı kaynaklarıdır. Tüm bu işlemler sırasında oluşabilecek emisyon miktarlarının bilinmesi, gerekli önlemlerin alınabilmesi açısından oldukça önemlidir. Dünya genelinde yapılan çalışmalar sonucunda; sera gazı emisyon miktarlarının öngörülebilmesi için birçok matematiksel model geliştirilmiş ve kullanılmıştır. Bu modeller yardımıyla emisyon miktarları tahminleri yapılarak, azaltılma yoluna gidilmesi ya da tamamen yok edilebilmesi amacıyla gerekli çalışmalar yapılabilmektedir. Yapılan bu çalışmada atık yönetiminden kaynaklanan sera gazı emisyonları incelenmiş ve modelleme yöntemleri hakkında bilgiler verilmiş; ileride yapılabilecek olan atık yönetiminden kaynaklı emisyonların modellenmesi konusundaki çalışmalara kaynak olması amaçlanmıştır.
