The results showed that the CWM system by using off-site sorting and direct landfilling resulted in significant environmental impacts.
For example, about 18 30 kg CO2 eq. greenhouse gases (GHGs) emission were induced for managing 1 t of construction waste through off-site sorting and direct landfilling, whereas significant GHGs emission could be potentially avoided (considered as a credit −126 to −182 kg CO2 eq).
The disadvantages of this treatment can be clearly seen: direct landfilling of MSW has been known to create lasting detrimental impacts to the environment (emissions to the atmosphere, hydrosphere, risk in landfill stability, and scarcity of land).
