    The pandemic increased global waste problems, especially medical and MSW (Municipal Solid Waste), showing the urgent need for sustainability. This research evaluates the environmental and economic sustainability of transforming MSW into syngas and electricity via gasification, using life cycle assessment (LCA) and techno-economic analysis. This research simulates syngas production and energy recovery for a 50-ton-per-day gasification plant, with a focus on waste disposal in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The LCA findings reveal substantial overall reductions in environmental impacts, with a climate change benefit of −100 kg CO eq. per ton of waste processed, alongside offsets in fossil depletion (−32.5 kg oil eq.) and particulate matter formation (−0.025 kg PM2.5 eq.). Financially, the system is sound, generating $516,474 yearly, with a 4.8-year return and 208% return on investment (ROI). The research supports various Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 7, SDG 12, and SDG 13, while also addressing waste issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Pilot-scale validation is necessary to address real-world variability when relying on simulated data. The results support gasification as a robust, circular technology for enhancing general MSW management resilience, providing policymakers with a path for transitioning MSW waste to energy in cities and during emergencies.

    This study aims to optimize the environmental and economic benefits of producing bioethanol from the organic fraction of municipal solid waste in Pakistan. The country generates approximately 71,000 kg of OFMSW annually, yet no facility currently exists for its conversion into bioethanol. Leveraging the availability of OFMSW, this study designs a bioethanol production plant and evaluates its environmental sustainability through an attributional life cycle assessment using the ReCiPe (H) model. Results indicate that 154 kg of bioethanol can be produced from every 1 ton of organic waste. Compared to current landfilling practices, bioethanol production from OFMSW demonstrates lower environmental burdens, including climate change potential (3.05E-05 kg CO₂ eq), photochemical ozone formation (132 kg NOx eq), human toxicity (13.6 kg 1,4-DB eq), eutrophication potential (10.9 kg P eq), ozone depletion potential (0.0111 kg CFC-11 eq), and acidification potential (−5.39E-03 kg SO₂ eq). Scenario modelling assessed the integration of photovoltaic solar cells for electricity supply, showing a reduction in fine particulate matter emissions from 67.8 kg to 0.766 kg PM₂.₅ eq compared to grid electricity. Hotspot analysis identified key impact categories contributing to environmental burdens. The economic assessment revealed an annual revenue potential of approximately USD 528,330 from bioethanol sales. Overall, producing bioethanol from OFMSW presents a viable alternative fuel pathway that is both environmentally and economically beneficial, reduces landfill dependency, and supports the principles of a circular economy. This strategy contributes directly to achieving key United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including responsible consumption and production, affordable clean energy, and climate action.
