Abstract:
Due to urbanization, municipal waste is increasing day by day. So it is a big challenge nowadays to handle it and generate alternative energy. Generation of the energy from MSW is recognized as a source of renewable energy, which can be used in heating, electricity generation purposes. So waste management plays an important role in the generation of renewable energy. In this article we try to give a review of several processes of waste-to-energy (WTE). In this work we discuss several processes such as food waste to energy conversion and municipal waste to energy conversion. Food waste to energy conversion is also divided into anaerobic digestion, ethanol fermentation, and biodiesel. Municipal waste to energy is divided into three groups such as pyrolysis, gasification, bio refineries. Further we have discussed different processes of WTE in India and USA.
