THE ORY AND METHODSThe <strong>study</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>municipal</strong><strong>solid</strong> <strong>waste</strong> is crucial <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> efforts to achieve a susta<strong>in</strong>ablesociety. Municipal <strong>solid</strong> <strong>waste</strong> is relevant to many o<strong>the</strong>r environmental aspects,<strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g utilities <strong>of</strong> natural resources, land lise, human health, surface and groundwater pollution, air pollution and so on. Successful <strong>management</strong> is important to avoid<strong>the</strong> occurrence <strong>of</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r environmental problems. Municipal <strong>solid</strong> <strong>waste</strong> <strong>management</strong>as a key role <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> development towards a susta<strong>in</strong>able society must be recognized.Waste is produced after us<strong>in</strong>g natural resources by human be<strong>in</strong>g. People have to close<strong>the</strong> loop which <strong>the</strong>y made for liv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> order to mitigate <strong>the</strong> depletion <strong>of</strong> naturalresources and to protect our environment. The susta<strong>in</strong>able solutions will be highlyappreciated <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> solutions <strong>of</strong> J<strong>in</strong>gshan <strong>municipal</strong> <strong>solid</strong> <strong>waste</strong> <strong>management</strong>.3.1 Basic Pr<strong>in</strong>cipleTo achieve <strong>the</strong> susta<strong>in</strong>able <strong>municipal</strong> <strong>solid</strong> <strong>waste</strong> <strong>management</strong>, <strong>the</strong> susta<strong>in</strong>ability isconsidered <strong>the</strong> basic pr<strong>in</strong>cip le <strong>in</strong> this <strong>study</strong>. The specific application <strong>of</strong> susta<strong>in</strong>ability<strong>in</strong> handl<strong>in</strong>g <strong>municipal</strong> <strong>solid</strong> <strong>waste</strong> could be <strong>waste</strong> reuse, recycl<strong>in</strong>g, energy recover,nutrition recover and rationalland lise through decreas<strong>in</strong>g landfills. By us<strong>in</strong>g biogas toproduce e1ectricity or heat which is come ITom organic contents <strong>of</strong> <strong>municipal</strong> <strong>solid</strong><strong>waste</strong> is a very good example <strong>of</strong> susta<strong>in</strong>able solution, because on <strong>the</strong> one hand, itsolves <strong>waste</strong> problem and it's correspond<strong>in</strong>g negative effects, on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r, it savesnon-renewable energy recourses.Besides, <strong>the</strong> m<strong>in</strong>imiz<strong>in</strong>g environmental effect and ITom source to solve problem couldbe <strong>the</strong> basic requirements <strong>of</strong> handl<strong>in</strong>g <strong>municipal</strong> <strong>solid</strong> <strong>waste</strong>. So when to choose <strong>the</strong>different approaches, which one is <strong>the</strong> best one with <strong>the</strong> m<strong>in</strong>imiz<strong>in</strong>g environmentaleffect should be considered. Source reduction and sort<strong>in</strong>g <strong>waste</strong> at source can avoidmix<strong>in</strong>g all k<strong>in</strong>ds <strong>of</strong> <strong>waste</strong> and br<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g a lot <strong>of</strong> trouble <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> fur<strong>the</strong>r treatmentprocesses.In <strong>the</strong> analysis and results chapter, <strong>the</strong> above pr<strong>in</strong>cip le <strong>of</strong> susta<strong>in</strong>ability and its specificrequirements <strong>in</strong> handl<strong>in</strong>g <strong>municipal</strong> <strong>solid</strong> <strong>waste</strong> will be applied to choose <strong>the</strong> priorsolution.3.2 MethodsThe below methods are adopted comprehensively <strong>in</strong> this <strong>study</strong>:. Literature search and <strong>study</strong>. Relevant important literature and data are ITom LundUniversity Library, Tyrens InITakonsult AB Library, The Library <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>
