Effects of waste treatment technique and quality of waste on bioaerosols in Finnish waste treatment plants
2004
Outi Tolvanen selvitti tutkimuksessaan mikrobi-, endotoksiini- ja pölypitoisuuksia suomalaisilla jätteenkäsittelylaitoksilla. Tolvanen tutki, onko jätteiden tehostunut syntypistelajittelu ja jätteiden käsittely suljetuissa laitoksissa vähentänyt bioaerosolien ja pölyn aiheuttamia työhygieenisiä ongelmia. Kohonneiden mikrobipitoisuuksien on aikaisemmissa tutkimuksissa havaittu aiheuttavan jätteitä työssään käsitteleville henkilöille erilaisia oireita, kuten pahoinvointia, päänsärkyä, kuumeilua sekä allergiaa ja astmaa. The last fifteen years have seen immense changes in waste treatment in Finland. The number of landfill sites has been reduced and new waste treatment plants have been construc…
A technological approach towards integrated solid waste management in developing countries
2017
This research is grounded in the planning concept of Integrated Solid Waste Management (ISWM). ISWM was developed to promote sustainability in the waste management for developing countries. Waste managers and policy makers in developing countries have been adopting the principles of ISWM into their waste strategies for several decades. But despite their many efforts, still important problems remain, as is the case of low collection coverage, lack of proper treatment of the different waste types, high dependency on final disposal sites and even in some cities uncontrolled dumping is still accepted as the only way to handle the waste. For that reason, waste management in developing countries …
