The construction of a waste-free city is of great significance, aiming to reduce waste generation and carbon emissions through the whole life cycle management of solid waste and achieve the coordinated development of the economy, society and environment. However, in the process of waste-free city construction, how to scientifically and systematically evaluate the carbon emission reduction benefits has become a key problem to be solved urgently.

[0026] A method and system for evaluating the carbon emission reduction benefits of waste-free city construction provided by the present invention relate to solid wastes such as domestic waste, food waste, renewable resources, agricultural solid waste, general industrial solid waste and hazardous waste. Based on technical methods such as carbon footprint analysis, emission factor method, WARM model, etc., it mainly includes the following steps: First, collect and classify the solid waste data of the waste-free city, including the changes in the production volume and disposal methods of each solid waste in the base year and the target year; Through carbon footprint analysis and emission factors or the WARM model, calculate the current carbon emission baseline of each solid waste treatment mode; Referring to the national carbon neutrality policy goal, set the carbon emission reduction scenarios for the target year of waste-free city construction, and set different waste treatment optimization scenarios; Based on the carbon emission calculation of the WARM model, calculate the life cycle carbon emissions of different treatment scenarios; Based on the carbon emission calculation results of the foregoing steps, evaluate the emission reduction benefits of the waste-free city policy; The aim is to propose a policy optimization plan and formulate medium- and long-term carbon neutrality goals according to the evaluation results.

[0027] As Figure 1-2 shown, the present invention provides a method for evaluating the carbon emission reduction benefits of waste-free city construction, which specifically includes the following: S1.

[0028] Specifically, S1 includes the following steps: S101. Collect data such as the production volume, composition, production source, treatment method and final disposal path of solid waste in the waste-free city in the base year; S102.

[0029] S2. According to the emission factor method and the WARM (Waste Reduction Model) model, clarify the carbon footprint and calculate the total carbon emissions of the solid waste.

[0030] According to the different treatment characteristics and paths of different wastes, conduct carbon footprint analysis, clarify the relevant carbon emission sources, including carbon emissions and carbon emission reduction situations, and the sum of the two is the net carbon emission. Use the emission factor database recommended by the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and the WARM model to determine the baseline carbon emissions of each waste treatment method.

[0031] Although there are many uncertainties in the carbon footprint of the entire life cycle of solid waste, the WARM model does not focus on the absolute value of carbon emissions in the life cycle of solid waste, but on the carbon emission reduction benefits between the baseline year and the target year before and after the construction of a "waste-free city", as well as the impact on the difference in carbon emissions under different future scenarios. The basic equation for carbon emission accounting is the amount of solid waste source reduction (increase) or solid waste disposal volume multiplied by the emission factor, also known as the emission factor method.

It is a tool for providing advanced comparative estimates of potential greenhouse gas emissions, energy savings, and economic impacts under different materials management practices, and provides comparative estimates of potential greenhouse gas emissions, energy savings, and economic impacts of materials managed under baseline materials and alternative materials management practices. These practices include source reduction, recycling, composting, anaerobic digestion, combustion, and landfilling. The model estimates emissions, energy units, and economic factors for a range of material types commonly found in municipal solid waste and construction and demolition waste, and is divided into the following categories: metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2E), energy units (million British thermal units - BTU), labor hours, wages and taxes.
