Conversion of waste into alternative biofuels
Waste management processes play a critical role in addressing the challenges posed by increasing waste generation and environmental degradation. One potential solution that has gained considerable attention in recent years is the conversion of waste into alternative biofuels. This approach…
Waste-to-Energy (WtE)
Waste management processes can create electricity for the grid system through the use of technologies such as waste-to-energy (WtE) plants or landfill gas recovery systems. In WtE plants, waste is burned at high temperatures, generating steam that drives turbines to…
Fertilizer production through waste management
Fertilizer production through waste management involves converting organic waste into nutrient-rich fertilizers. This process not only helps in waste disposal but also reduces the dependency on synthetic fertilizers.
Firstly, waste materials such as food and agricultural residues, animal manure, sewage sludge, and kitchen waste are collected. These organic waste materials are then processed through different methods such as composting, anaerobic digestion, and vermicomposting....
