Globally, exponential population growth, rampant consumerism, and economic development are the major drivers of waste generation. The World Bank estimates that waste generation is going to increase from about 2.3 billion tons per year by 2023 to 3.4 billion tons per year by 2050.
• What are the major challenges associated with current waste-to-energy (WtE) facilities based on incineration in terms of non-adherence to regulatory waste emission guidelines, and what specific toxic gases and particulate matter are released into the atmosphere as a result?
• What are some of the key requirements that efficient waste valorization technologies must meet in order to comply with stringent emission guidelines while effectively addressing the issue of waste management and ensuring sustainable and circular practices?
• How are governments globally addressing the issue of non-compliance with emission directives by shutting down incineration facilities, and what opportunities does this create for the implementation of more efficient waste valorization technologies that are aligned with sustainability and circularity goals?
