     Abstract
The objective of this research is  to compare the greenhouse gas emissions 
between recycling of MSW  recyclable value wastes and landfilling in Thailand. 
Methane emissions  from the organic fraction of waste in landfills contribute 
to global  warming whereas for recycling, the global warming potential comes 
from the  energy consumption of the recycling process. The whole life cycle of 
the  two scenarios is considered, including transportation. The recycling  
option reduces the methane emissions from landfill due to diversion of  waste. The 
study shows that this reduction more than offsets the increase  due to energy 
consumption in the recycling process. Apart from the  reduction in global 
warming potential, recycling also contributes to  resource conservation. Thailand 
has a high potential for recycling since a  large proportion of the waste 
currently going to the landfills is actually  recyclable. Two case studies of 
ecodesign are also considered to highlight  the increase in recyclability and the 
benefits thereof.
