Life Cycle Assessment of Waste-to-Energy: Energy Recovery from Wood Waste in Malaysia
Open accessAbstract
Solid waste management is one of the most serious and controversial issues encountered by the local and regional authorities of Malaysia.Solid waste generation for the whole of Malaysia is about 33,000 tonnes per day in 2012 and 38,200 tonnes per day in 2016 [1].Other than waste generation by household, waste generation by industrial, commercial and institution (ICI) also encompasses municipal waste, but construction and demolition waste, as well as industrial scrap, are excluded [2].ICI waste includes food wastes, packaging, housekeeping wastes, paper, cardboard, plastics, wood, glass and metals.The generation of solid waste in

Most of the works of literature are based on end-of-life waste management practices.
“Most of the works of literature are based on end-of-life waste management practices [33][34][35][36][37]; hence, there is a gap to explore for a theoretical framework that abridges six life cycle stages and CE for wood waste management.”
From Circular Economy of Construction and Demolition Wood Waste—A Theoretical Framework Approach (2022) · cites this paper as [37]
The Goal and Scope Definition and System Boundary sections show that this paper studies wood-waste treatment from the arrival of waste through final discharge, making it an example of end-of-life waste-management research. It does not establish that most of the literature has that focus. Page numbers are unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
