In recent years managing solid wastes has been one of the burning problems in front of state and local municipal authorities. This is mainly due to scarcity of lands for landfill sites. In this context experts suggest that conversion of solid waste to energy and useful component is the best approach to reduce space and public health related problems. The entire process has to be managed by tech...

Abstract Municipal solid waste (MSW) management has emerged as one of the major environmental challenges globally. The consequences inappropriate are manifold and trend would continue if immediate interventions not taken for its reversion amid rapid urbanization current consumption patterns individuals. concept circular economy (CE) can contribute to a paradigm shift in transformation tradition...

Waste-to-energy (WTE) conversion technologies for generating renewable energy and solving the environmental problems have an important role in development of sustainable circular economy. This paper presents a novel high-efficiency WTE power plant using refuse-derived fuel (RDF) as feedstock by integrating torrefaction (T) pretreatment with plasma gasifier (PG), solid oxide cell (SOFC), combine...

The principal sources of chlorine in the MSW feed to WTE power plants are food wastes (e.g., wheat, green vegetables, melon, pineapple), yard wastes( leaves, grass, etc.), salt (NaCl), and chlorinated plastics (mostly polyvinyl chloride). Chlorine has important impacts on the WTE operation in terms of higher corrosion rate than in coal-fired power plants, formation of hydrochloric gas that must...

Introduction: Countries around the world are looking for an appropriate, stable, and affordable replacement for the natural energies. Therefore, the waste is considered as an available resource to produce energy, which by controlling, its effects on the environment could be minimized. Materials and Methods: To conduct this review article, the scientific data related to the topic were gathered ...

Municipal solid waste management (SWM) is one of the most useful applications renewable energy, supporting market for energy and assisting in environmental protection by reducing emissions. Sustainability key issues with systems developing countries, including Palestine. Waste-to-energy (WTE) technology greatest strategies effectively managing waste. This study focuses mostly on Palestine’s Tul...
