WASTE MANAGEMENT, ENERGY AND GHG’S
Factors of GHG’s
Fossil fuel combustion emissions (making, transport, using and
discarding)
-
Methane (from landfills)
Methane, CO2 and nitrous oxide (from waste incineration)
-
Translate emissions and carbon sinks into equivalent green house gases
Consider the Global Warming Potentials (GWP’s) of a product
Equate to metric tons of carbon equivalent (MTCE)
1 ton CO2 = 0,273 MTCE
Savings when looking at waste management is very high!
