Abstract
Municipal solid waste (MSW) conversion — the recovery of energy (and materials) from MSW — has been the subject of one activity within the 1986–88 International Energy Agency Bioenergy Agreement. The participating countries have been Canada, Sweden and the UK, with the activity being led by Harwell Laboratory. The major aim of the work has been to establish a co-operative approach to the R&D undertaken in each country on MSW conversion. The emphasis has been on R&D which concentrates on technical and environmental aspects of energy (rather than materials) recovery. This has encompassed a wide range of technology options — mass combustion, production and combustion of refuse derived fuels, abstraction and utilisation of landfill gas, anaerobic digestion, and thermal processing.
The paper gives a summary of the approach taken in fulfilling the aims of the activity and summarises recent, current and proposed R&D programmes in each country. Proposals made at an expert workshop for specific co-operative ventures during 1989–91 are also summarised.
