“…a size of around 100 mm in practice). The estimated energy use for mechanical treatment is set at 100 kWh of electricity and 25 kWh of natural gas per ton of MSW (Kourkoumpas et al, 2015). The waste then undergoes drying to a final moisture content of around 10%.…”

“…The examined WtE systems allow for the recovery of energy as electricity and/or heat. The "multi-functional" processes are addressed by the use of system expansion: a same quantity of "avoided" emissions are subtracted from the system, which equal to the emissions that would be emitted, if energy was not recovered by WtE (Kourkoumpas et al, 2015). In appliance with the attributional LCA approach, a mix or average of energy sources in a specified region are used.…”
