| Abstract: | In this paper, analyzed are different alternatives for solid waste management (hereafter as: w-mgmt.) that can be implemented to enable the targets required by the European Landfill and Packaging and Packaging Waste Directives to be achieved in the Valencian Community, on the Spanish east coast. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology is applied to evaluate the environmental performance. The analysis is performed at two levels. As a result, the best alternative to the existing w-mgmt. system can be identified. |
