Chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total nitrogen in the leachate, as well as the gas production rate, are about 90% lower than for untreated waste. The volume to be landfilled decreases by mechanical-biological pretreatment by up to 60%.en0734-242X19996424429Sage Publicationshttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/compostinglandfill simulation testmechanical-biological pretreatmentmunicipal solid waste (MSW)reduction of emission potentialIngenieurwissenschaftenJournal Articleurn:nbn:de:gbv:830-8821993710.15480/882.158811420/159110.1177/0734242X990170060510.15480/882.1588Dieser Beitrag ist mit Zustimmung des Rechteinhabers aufgrund einer (DFG geförderten) Allianz- bzw.
