The amount of solid waste collected excluding tourist waste reaches 38,857.14 tons/year (according to HEPCA services).<br />
Regarding composition of waste, the Governorate of Red Sea was applied to estimate tons of organic waste, paper and<br />
cardboard and other domestic waste.<br />

be stable.<br />
- In the city of <strong>Hurghada</strong>, all the waste is going to landfill without methane capture.<br />
- The IPCC default value are used for DOC and Methane generation rate constant (k)<br />
Water management<br />
Electricity and Diesel consumption for water management is provided by the Governorate of Red Sea (2015), 2,386<br />
MWh and 66 MWh respectively. These values were considered consistent and supposed to include pumping,<br />
distribution and energy used for wastewater treatment.<br />
For non-energetic emissions quantity of treated wastewater was provided: 11,520 M 3 /day, the emission factor for waste<br />
water treatment of Base Carbon method is applied (0,262 KeqCO2/m 3 ).<br />
