The term landfill is usually shorthand for a municipal landfill or sanitary landfill. These facilities were first introduced early in the 20th century, but gained wide use in the 1960s and 1970s, in an effort to eliminate open dumps and other "unsanitary" waste disposal practices.
Apr 1, 2020 · The life cycle impact assessment was characterized by GWP at a 100 year period (GWP 100) based on the results of the inventories using the IPCC 2013 GWP 100a method (IPCC, 2013). This method provides a comprehensive methodology to calculate GWP 100 , associated with amount of GHG emission and its equivalency factor.
