About this book

Through waste-to-energy (WtE) technology, relevant WtE plants use waste as a renewable fuel to co-produce electricity, heating, and cooling for urban utilization. Updated to reflect the latest developments in this field, the second edition of Waste-to-Energy Technologies and Global Applications also adds three new chapters covering waste to hydrogen, carbon capture and storage/utilization, and additional discussion on new WtE plants in Dubai and the Middle East.

  • Covers thermal treatment technologies including combustion, novel gasification, plasma gasification, and pyrolysis
  • Examines dozens of real-world WtE case studies from around the world, analyzing technical information behind planning, execution, goals, and national strategies
  • Explains financial and environmental aspects
  • Features new content on waste to hydrogen, carbon capture and storage/utilization, and new WtE plants in Dubai and the Middle East
