| Summary, etc. | Open dumping and landfillng are the most practiced systems for municipal solid waste (MSW) management in developing countries, both of which are known to result in significant greenhouse gases (GHGs) emission, particularly methane (CH₄) with 21 times higher global warming potential than carbon dioxide (C0₂) Mitigation of GHGs emission by applying Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) has become a thought provoking option in the recent decade. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of applying clean development mechanism for wastes management in Bangkok city, Thailand. As sustainable management of municipal solid wastes is a prime concern of the city, several strategies such as: wastes minimization, integrated wastes management, waste-to-energy programs, etc. are in practice for MSW management. However, none of them have been yet designated as CDM projects. With this view, the principal objective of this research was laid on evaluating the potential for applying these strategies as CDM projects for mitigating methane emission reductions and identifying the best strategy to be applied as CDM. Primary data on MSW management of Bangkok city were obtained by field visits to the MSW transfer stations, sanitary landfill sites and organizations (such as Bangkok metropolitan administration offices, schools and communities and private enterprises), where at least one of the above mentioned strategies such as 3R, are being implemented. Questionnaires and informal interviews with the key persons were the basic tools used for primary data while, the secondary data were collected through intensive literature reviews. MSW generation in Bangkok city was found to increase from 3,260 tons/day in 1985 to nearly 9,500 tons/day in 2002, which is a 3-fold increase within the 15 years period, and is projected to reach 18,750 tons/day in the year 2015. Methane emission based on the present data of MSW disposal was estimated to be about 104.45 Gg/yr which seems to be quite higher compared to the 1994 estimates, which was only 12.841 Gg/yr. Based on the existing situation of municipal solid wastes management of Bangkok city and with increasing quantity of the same, the amount of wastes to be disposed of through landfills will be increased which would obviously result in more greenhouse gases emission. Therefore Bangkok city is recommended to apply some strategies to reduce the amount of wastes generation and disposal through landfills. This research analyzes some feasible scenarios, based on technical, environmental and economical aspects, that Bangkok city could choose to implement and the possible percent reduction of GHGs emission. These scenarios include: implementation of 3R, mechanical biological wastes treatment (MBWT) as well as waste-to-energy program |
