Waste-To-Energy Plant Conceptual Design and Operation By NGWAN TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL
Introduction Energy Demand increases with population growth. Amount of waste generated is directly link to high population index Inappropriate waste management leads to health hazards(such as diarrhea, malaria etc) Effective economic growth also has direct correlation with energy demand. Waste to energy technology has the best positive contribution to economic growth since economic activities of the people are highly related to it.

Emission Control IN 100 cubic yards of waste 90% volume reduction OUT 10 cubic yards of (inert) ash
Emission Control Cont The ash produced can also be used for road construction material.

Estimation of Potential Power Generation From MSW Waste, by definition, non-uniform in quality so waste audit must be done to determine the calories of the combustible waste. Estimated Potential Electrical Energy Waste (Tons) per dayEnergy Recovery Potential (MWh)Power Generation Potential (MW)
Economic Benefits Direct labor impacts— over 15,000 employees servicing several recycling plants. Waste-to-energy facilities provide stable, long-term, well-paying jobs, while simultaneously pumping dollars into local economies through the purchase of local goods and services and the payment of fees and taxes.
Conclusion WTE is a clean renewable source of energy that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and reduce dependence on fossil fuels. Dependable and long-term solutions for municipal solid waste disposal remains, a paramount concern for local governments. Waste-to-Energy has higher energy revenues, metals recovery, renewable incentives, and decades of operational efficiency.
