Uncertainty analysis (d-factors) of the effects of clinical waste components on the estimated results.

Component	${\mathit{LHV}\text{(Dulong)}}_{\text{wet}}$	${\mathit{LHV}\text{(literature)}}_{\text{wet}}$	Ash	HCl	SO2
plastic	0.13	0.13	0.00	0.14	-0.08
paper	0.02	0.03	0.00	-0.01	-0.02

${\mathit{LHV}\text{(Dulong)}}_{\text{wet}}$: estimated lower heating values (LHV) based on Dulong formula; ${\mathit{LHV}\text{(literature)}}_{\text{wet}}$: estimated LHV based on the LHV results of each component of MSW and CW from the literatures.
