Outline of Final Research Achievements

Increasing demands are recognized for researches which enhance resilience, capacity to response to various risks against human societies. In this research, effects of energy recovery from waste biomass as renewable energy were analyzed by using material and energy flow analyses and life cycle inventory analyses. In detail, it was revealed that various infrastructure collaboration systems were effective to strengthen energy resilience by the following sharing patterns: 1) nationwide collaboration among sewage treatment facilities, municipal waste incinerators, and industrial factory infrastructures; 2) utilization of treatment capacity of environmental facility and its area-wide sharing; 3) collaboration of facilities between domestic waste-water and combustible household waste treatment.
