Abstract
In this study, municipal solid waste (MSW) has collected 3 times and physico-chemical analysis has done. Nitrous oxide emissions from MSW incineration plant were measured continuously by EPA Method 18 and it was compared with the emission by calculation using the emission factor. The $N_2O$ emission of MSW incineration plant was more than twice as large as the emission by calculation. It was found that the installation of abatement facilities in MSW incineration plant is effective in achieving the greenhouse reduction targets and it can be ensure economical efficiency through emission trading system.
