Abstract:
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) management is a growing challenge worldwide due to rapid urbanization and increased waste generation. The incineration of MSW presents a vitiable solution for waste reduction while simultaneously generating electricity. This study explores the potential of waste-to-energy (WTE) incineration technology as a sustainable and efficient approach for power generation. The research examines key technological aspects, including incinerator design, feedstock characteristics, thermal efficiency, and emission control measures. The study also evaluates environmental impacts, such as greenhouse gas emissions, residue management (bottom ash and fly ash), and potential strategies for sustainable ash disposal, including metal recovery and landfill applications. Despite concerns over environmental risks, WTE incineration offers multiple advantages, including significant waste volume reduction (up to 90%), energy recovery, and reduced landfill dependence. With proper regulatory frameworks and technological advancements, incineration can be a key contributor to sustainable waste management and renewable energy generation. This project highlights the importance of optimizing waste-to-energy systems and promoting their integration into urban infrastructure for long-term environmental benefit. The environmental conditions of the incineration process must be very precise to make it environmentally safe. The larger portion of the investment required is due to environmental measures such as emissions control. When choosing incineration as an alternative, the following issues should be considered: volume/quantity of waste produced, heat of combustion of waste, site location, dimensions of the facility, operation and maintenance costs and investment.
