چکیده
|
The solid waste crisis in the fast urbanizing benin metropolis is the result of inability of the local government authorities to effectively handle the huge amount of waste generated daily. a large percentage of the solid waste in the metropolis ends up on illegal waste dumpsites. the aim of this paper was to investigate the waste-to-energy potentials of domestic solid wastes in benin metropolis, nigeria using a three-phase study plan - study of current waste management activities, characterization of domestic solid waste and determination of the waste-to-energy potentials of domestic solid waste. the results obtained reveal that about 13.18% of combustible solid waste is generated in benin metropolis with average calorific value (cv) of 20,198.89 kj/kg producing an energy value of 36.95 mw/day.
