Thermal Conversion of Municipal Waste Into Energy: Prospects for the Sub-Carpathia

Dumping municipal waste is the least expensive and most commonly used method of disposing solid waste. However, there is an alternative, two-in-one, solution: conversion of waste to energy. Non-recyclable waste can be turned into heat, electric power or fuel using various processes, such as gasification, pyrolysis or anaerobic fermentation. This is how residual waste can serve as sustainable local source of energy, additionally, contributing to environmental protection and, to a significant extent, energy supply security.
