| description |
At present, the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (KLCH) is facing problems in the disposal
of their solid wastes due to the rapid increase in the amount generated as a result of
rapid urbanisation. Existing landfill site at Taman Beringin is already exhausted
and should be closed at any time. Due to this problem, there is a move to treat the
solid wastes by thermal treatment technologies. Data on the characteristics of the
solid waste is lacking and not reliable for the evaluation of these technologies. In
addition, models for estimating the heating value based on the characteristics of
Kuala Lumpur wastes are not available. This study was carried out to determine
the characteristics and consequently develop the models for estimating the heating
value of the Kuala Lumpur solid wastes.
The study analyses and evaluates the physical and chemical characteristics of
Kuala Lumpur solid wastes. The study was conducted at Taman Beringin Landfill from Mac 2000 to Jun 2000. A total of 26 samples were obtained from various
sources including residential, commercial, institutional, cleansing and light
industrial wastes. The truckload method was used for the sampling and
characterising the physical components of wastes. The proximate and ultimate
analysis of the wastes were also carried out. |
