Waste Utilization Pathways Simulator

Interactive 3D simulator comparing four municipal solid waste treatment pathways — landfill, waste-to-energy incineration, anaerobic digestion and composting — with live energy, CO2-equivalent emissions and remaining landfill-volume metrics as you redistribute the waste stream.

Ecology & Conservation Biology3DModerate60 FPS

A municipal waste stream flows out of the collection hopper and splits four ways: landfill, waste-to-energy incineration, anaerobic digestion and composting. Drag the sliders to change what fraction of the daily tonnage goes down each path and watch the 3D flow of waste re-route in real time, while the energy, CO₂-equivalent and landfill-volume readouts update against realistic per-tonne figures for each technology.

⚙ Under the hood

3D municipal solid waste simulator: split a 1,000 t/day waste stream across landfill, waste-to-energy incineration, anaerobic digestion and composting with four linked sliders, and watch the waste flow re-route between distinct 3D stations while energy output (MWh/day), CO2-equivalent emissions (t/day) and landfill volume (m3/day) update live from per-tonne reference figures.
