Pinch analysis of GHG mitigation strategies for municipal solid waste management: A case study on Qingdao City

Municipal solid waste management is a major environmental issue facing modern cities due to risks posed to humans and emissions of greenhouse gases. In China, landfills are among the main management options used in urban centers. Other options for municipal solid waste treatment include waste minimi...
