- Life-cycle process models for solid waste management (SWM) processes.
- Built-in Monte Carlo simulation
| Process model | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Landfill (LF) | Calculates emissions, material use, and energy use associated with construction, operations, closure and post-closure activities, landfill gas and leachate management, and carbon storage. |
| 2 | Waste-to-Energy (WTE) | Calculates emissions, mass flows, and resource use and recovery for the mass burn WTE process. |
| 3 | Gasification & Syngas Combustion (GC) | Calculates emissions, mass flows, and resource use and recovery for the GC process (Produced syngas from gasification is combusted to produce electricity by steam turbine). |
| 4 | Composting (Comp) | Calculates emissions, mass flows, and resource use and recovery for aerobic composting process and final use of compost. |
| 5 | Home Composting (HC) | Calculates emissions, mass flows, and resource use and recovery for home composting process and final use of compost. |
| 6 | Anaerobic Digestion (AD) | Calculates emissions, mass flows, and resource use and recovery for anaerobic digestion process and final use of compost. |
| 7 | Single-Stream Material Recovery facility (SS_MRF) | Calculates cost, emissions, and energy use associated with material recovery facilities. |
| 8 | Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) | Calculates cost, emissions, and energy use associated with RDF production facilities. |
| 9 | Reprocessing (Reproc) | Calculates emissions, mass flows, and resource use and recovery associated with recycling materials. |
| 10 | Transfer Station (TS) | Calculates cost, emissions, and energy use associated with Transfer Stations. |
| 11 | Single Family Collection (SF_Col) | Calculates cost, emissions, and fossil fuel use associated with MSW collection from single family sector. |
| 12 | Multi Family Collection (MF_Col) | Calculates cost, emissions, and fossil fuel use associated with MSW collection from multi-family sector. |
| 13 | Commercial Collection (COM_Col) | Calculates cost, emissions, and fossil fuel use associated with MSW collection from commercial sector. |
| 14 | Animal Feed (AnF) | Calculates cost, emissions, and energy use associated with conversion of food waste to animal feed and final use of produced feed. |
1- Download and install miniconda from: https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html
2- Update conda in a terminal window or anaconda prompt:
conda update conda
3- Create a new environment for swolfpy:
conda create --name swolfpy python=3.9
4- Activate the environment:
conda activate swolfpy
5- Install swolfpy_processmodels in the environment:
pip install swolfpy_processmodels
6- Use in python (e.g., Landfill model):
import swolfpy_processmodels as sppm model = sppm.LF() model.calc() LCI_report = model.report() LCI_report
