The amount of municipal solid waste (MSW) has strongly grown in the last decade and continues to do so.

Abstract
The amount of municipal solid waste (MSW) has strongly grown in the last decade and continues to do so. In Europe the mechanical/biological treatment (MBT) is an increasing option either as a pre-treatment before landfilling or as a pre-treatment before combustion. In this paper, taking into account the new EU directives and in particular the Italian situation (regulated by the decree 205/2010) the difference between the fuels derived from MSW, that is the Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) regulated by the decree 5/02/1998 before the decree 205/2010 and the one named Solid Recovery Fuel (SRF) after the decree 205/2010, are presented. In the field of MSW management, in agreement with the new EU directives, RDF/SRF can be produced from the approach based on a one-stream or the conventional one two-streams.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione
