Fifth Framework Program Aid in the management and European comparisonof Municipal Solid WASte Treatment methodsfor a global and sustainable approach
Waste management in Europe (1/2) • Increasing quantities of waste: • 1995 :………… 191 Mt Municipal waste • 1995-2010 : …. An increase of 22% (foreseen) • Different situations and different needs: • Central and northern European countries:More rational technological choices,particularly in terms of investment and management costs • Southern European countries:Accompanying measures for implementation of management systems to reach the objectives
Waste management in Europe (2/2) Objectives • Constantly evolving european policies: • Source reduction of waste • Promotion of recycling: ex. : waste packaging directive • Minimisation of landfilling • Methods for aid to decision often approximatives: • Methods and software for calculation of environmental and economical balance: • Simplified analysis of matter flows • Non phenomenological approach • Simulators dedicated to one type of process • Often incompatibles together from one channel to another
MSW management: general context MSW management: a major problem for local communities Situation: Lack of methodologies and tools to: Œ Define…………..………. Evaluate…………….…. Optimise or adapt….… Reach………………… Need: Tools for modelling of the effects of reduction, recycling or treatment of waste on GLOBAL evaluation of MSW management. Treatment systems Progress objectives
AWAST : an ambitious objective... Made of modules Design of a simulation tool: ‚Based on techniques of process analysis ƒIntegrating an economic, energetic and environmental approach
… to allow to: Simulate the impact of waste composition and/or operating conditions of treatments on global performances of a system. ‚Simulate at a low cost the effects of modifications of treatments (add of new, optimisation of existing plants). ƒDetermine wether a given technology can garanty a set of objectives on quantities and qualitie of diverse products.
