MASTER’S THESIS IN ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES RESEARCH<br />
Calculation <strong>of</strong> fossil carbon <strong>in</strong> MSW<br />
Accord<strong>in</strong>g to eco-<strong>in</strong>vent data base,<br />
Carbon dioxide emissions from 1 kg <strong>of</strong> MSW is<br />
Biogenic carbon = 0.723kg<br />
Fossil carbon= 0.474 kg<br />
So, the total fossil CO 2 emissions is (0.474/(0.723 + 0.474) = 39.5%)<br />
Therefore, 39.5% fossil emissions come from both P-G and Inc<strong>in</strong>eration processes.<br />
