Canadians are among the greatest producers of municipal solid waste (MSW) in the World with 777 kg of MSW per capita disposed in 2008 (Statistics Canada [2008]). Only 25% of these MSW are recycled and approximately 3% are converted to heat and electricity in incinerators. Landfills are still used as the primary means for waste disposal, which represents an environmental concern due to leachate and landfill gas emissions, which only 80% can be captured in best cases. Non-residential waste production is also a concern as it accounted for two-thirds of total waste production in Canada. Furthermore, waste management is a global concern considering that the World’s MSW production rate is expected to grow from 1.3 billion tons/year in 2012 to 2.2 billion tonnes/year in 2025 and to 4.2 billion tons/year in 2050 (World Bank report [2012]).

加拿大是世界上最大的城市固体废物（MSW）生产国之一，2008年人均处理777公斤MSW（加拿大统计局[2008]）。这些城市固体废物中只有25%被回收，大约3%在焚烧炉中转化为热能和电能。垃圾填埋场仍然是垃圾处理的主要方式，这是一个环境问题，因为渗滤液和垃圾填埋气体的排放，在最好的情况下只能捕获80%。非住宅废物的产生也是一个令人关切的问题，因为它占加拿大废物产生总量的三分之二。此外，考虑到世界城市固体废物的生产率预计将从2012年的13亿吨/年增长到2025年的22亿吨/年和2050年的42亿吨/年，废物管理是一个全球性问题（世界银行报告[2012]）。
