Description

Increasing global consumerism and population has led to an increase in the levels of waste produced. Waste to energy (WTE) conversion technologies can be employed to convert residual wastes into clean energy, rather than sending these wastes directly to landfill. Waste to energy conversion technology explores the systems, technology and impacts of waste to energy conversion. Part one provides an introduction to WTE conversion and reviews the waste hierarchy and WTE systems options along with the corresponding environmental, regulatory and techno-economic issues facing this technology. Part two goes on to explore further specific aspects of WTE systems, engineering and technology. Finally, part three highlights pollution control systems for waste to energy technologies. Key Features: reviews the waste hierarchy and waste to energy systems options along with the environmental and social impact of WTE conversion plants; explores the engineering and technology behind WTE systems including considerations of municipal solid waste (MSW) its treatment, combustion and gasification; considers pollution control systems for WTE technologies including the transformation of wast combustion facilities from major polluters to pollution sinks. Contents: Part 1 Introduction to waste to energy conversion: Waste to energy (WTE): An introduction; Environmental and social impacts of waste to energy (WTE) conversion plants; Life cycle assessment (LCA) and its application to sustainable waste management; Feedstocks for waste to energy (WTE) systems: Types, properties and analysis. Part 2 Waste to energy systems, engineering and technology: Pre-processing and treatment of municipal solid waste (MSW) prior to incineration; Municipal solid waste (MSW) combustion plants; Waste firing in large combustion plants; Waste to energy (WTE) systems for district heating; Gasification and pyrolysis of municipal solid waste (MSW). Part 3 Pollution control systems for waste to energy technologies: Transformation of waste combustion facilities from major polluters to pollution sinks; Air quality equipment and systems for waste to energy (WTE) conversion plants.
