摘要：The municipal solid waste (MSW) generation depends on the industrialisation and the sustained growth population in the world. The first data regarding the people waste production referred to the Paleolithic era, thanks to the Absolon discovery in 1945 [1]. During the years the composition of MSW was on continuous changes. For example a century ago the MSW contained mainly coal ash and food scraps, with a small proportion of paper and glass [2]. Instead today after the economic-industrial development in the MSW it can be found a high quantity of organic and packaging materials and only a very low quantity of inorganic ones.
