PRODUCTION OF THERMOELECTRIC POWER FROM SOLID WASTE OF SOME EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS OF LAHORE

1. PRODUCTION OF THERMOELECTRIC POWER FROM SOLID WASTE OF SOME EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS OF LAHORE By Mohammad Rafiq Khan Lahore School of Economics

2. INTRODUCTION The study was undertaken with the following objectives in mind: Safe and techno-economic disposal of solid waste produced in the scheduled educational institutions Study of the feasibility of production of thermo-electric power from the biomass of solid waste Later extension of the study to higher levels such as village, town, and national city level Recommendations to all concerned for effective solid waste management and production of thermoelectric power to eliminate power in Pakistan

3. METHODOLOGY OF RESEARCH Collection of Data Processing of Data Interpretation of Results The preliminary enquiry revealed that the total waste produced in the scheduled institutions were approximately as follows: LSE 200 Tons per Annum LUMS 500 Tons per Annum KC 200 Tons per Annum GCU 720 Tons per Annum Description of Detailed Methodology in (1) Khan MR and Pervez, F. 2009.
