1 INTRODUCTION
Therapideconomicdevelopmentandurbaniza2tioninChinainrecentyearshasresultedinsubstan2tialincreaseofsolidwaste.Itwasestimatedthatthetotalproductionofmunicipalsolidwaste(MSW)in2000hasbeenupto120~140milliontons.Howev2er,thetreatmentrateisverylow,andthustheenvi2ronmentalconsequenceofMSWbecomesaseriousprobleminmorethan200largecities[1].
Consideringthenegativeimpactstolivingenvi2ronments,landscapesandhumanhealth,moreandmoreattentionhasbeenpaidtothetreatmentanddisposalofMSW.Atthepresentstage,theMSWtreatmenttechnologiesprimarilyincludesanitarylandfill,incineration,compostingandrecovery/recy2cling.Byuseofpropertreatmentanddisposaltech2nologies,theenvironmentalimpactofMSWcouldbegreatlymitigated,althoughsomesecondarypollutioncouldbestillinevitableinthewholeprocessesandtheimpactmechanismsorextentscouldbedifferentfordifferenttechnologies.Finnveden[2]studiedsomeis2suesthatmustbeconsideredinthelifecycleassess2ment(LCA)forsolidwastemanagementsystems,andfiveissueswereindicated,i.e.theupstreamanddownstreamsystemboundaries,theopen2loopalloca2tionproblem,themulti2inputallocationproblem,thetimeasasystemboundaryandthelifecycleimpactassessment.Denison[3]comparedthemajoroptionsformanagingMSWprevailedinthestudiesinNorthAmericanonthebasisofenvironmentalconsidera2tions.

2 LIFECYCLEASSESSMENT
Lifecycleassessment(LCA)[2,4,5]isatooltoquantifyenvironmentalburdensassociatedwithprod2uctsoractivitiesthroughouttheirlifecycle,or“fromcradletograve”.Sinceitsbirthandfirstapplicationtoindustrialproductin1960s,manystudycaseshavebeendevelopedintheworld.LCAdevelopedrapidlyduringthe1990sandhasreachedcertainlevelofhar2monizationandstandardization.
LCA[6~8]studiedtheoverallenvironmentalbur2densgeneratedbyproducts,processesoractivitiesduringtheirentirelifecycle,whichincludesthestagesfromtheextractionandprocessingofrawma2terials,manufacturing,throughproduction,packag2ing,transportation,distribution,useandreuse,andmaintenance,recycling,tothefinaldisposal.Thegeneralcategoriesofenvironmentalimpactsneedingconsiderationincluderesourceuse,humanhealth
