Abstract: The article focuses on issues of energy generation from municipal waste paper in context of energy use for transport. Two base model types are presented – first for the combined production of thermal and electrical energy and the other for determination of waste paper purposeful transport distance. The theoretical background and proposed models are verified for concrete calculation on the basis of waste management in the chosen city in the Czech Republic. Software based on Petri nets was used for model construction; this allows the inclusion of the most relevant material and energy flows associated with energy production from waste paper, guaranteeing the high accuracy of the calculated results. The advantage of the model proposed in this manner is the simple and precise quantification of the environmental and economic impacts of the proposed measures; these are the main reasons for its good utilization as a tool for supporting managerial decision-making.
Keywords: Waste Management, Paper, Recycling, Combustion, Modeling, Petri Nets, Environmental Protection.
