Life-Cycle Assessment of a Regulatory Compliant US Municipal Solid Waste Landfill

Yixuan Wang et al.

Summary: The study found that material production contributes 68-75% to toxicity impacts in the landfill while LFG emissions contribute 50-99% to global warming, ozone depletion, and smog impacts. The current non-methane organic compound regulatory threshold reduces methane emissions by <7% relative to the former threshold.
