Representative waste samples were collected, processed and tested for energy generation over a complete year. The energy values appear to vary from city to city depending on the season. The total energy that could be recovered from the waste amounted to approximately 8.5% of the total electricity generation of the island of Cyprus. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/1592 | ISSN: | 0734242X | DOI: | 10.1177/0734242X07077614 | Rights: | © ISWA | Type: | Article | Affiliation: | Higher Technical Institute Cyprus | Affiliation : | Higher Technical Institute Cyprus | Publication Type: | Peer Reviewed |
