Abstract
This article contains (i) a set of spreadsheets with data compiled from municipal sanitation or solid waste plans, and (ii) data of the individual and aggregate performance indicators. These indicators have been published in the Journal of Cleaner Production in the article entitled “A municipal solid waste indicator for environmental impact: assessment and identification of best management practices.” The data contained in the spreadsheets are divided as follows: worksheet 1 includes the municipal solid waste generation data from the Brazilian municipalities studied; worksheet 2 presents the individual indicators that form the aggregate indicator; worksheet 3 presents the aggregate indicator and the classification of the municipalities; worksheet 4 provides data correlation; worksheets 5 to 10 depict boxplot graphs of the data; and worksheets 11 to 14 present graphs of individual indicators on a per capita basis and the ranking of municipalities.
Highlights
This article contains (i) a set of spreadsheets with data compiled from municipal sanitation or solid waste plans, and (ii) data of the individual and aggregate performance indicators
The data contained in the spreadsheets are divided as follows: worksheet 1 includes the municipal solid waste generation data from the Brazilian municipalities studied; worksheet 2 presents the individual indicators that form the aggregate indicator; worksheet 3 presents the aggregate indicator and the classification of the municipalities; worksheet 4 provides data correlation; worksheets 5 to depict boxplot graphs of the data; and worksheets to 14 present graphs of individual indicators on a per capita basis and the ranking of municipalities
After processing of raw data, the indicators for CO2 equivalent (CO2e) and energy consumption were acquired by modelling using the Waste Reduction Model
Summary
Data were acquired through content analysis of municipal solid waste or sanitary plans of 150 municipalities. After processing of raw data, the indicators for CO2 equivalent (CO2e) and energy consumption were acquired by modelling using the Waste Reduction Model. Based on the content analysis, the total amount of each type of waste destined for recycling, composting, and incineration (if applicable), and the total distance travelled by the waste to the landfill, composting, and recycling units were identified. These are secondary data that are available at governmental departments such as the Environmental Company of Sa~o Paulo State (CETESB), the Environment Department of Sa~o Paulo State, MSW or Basic Sanitation. The content of the solid waste and sanitary plans for the following small municipalities in Sa~o Paulo State, Brazil, were reviewed: Aguas da Prata
