Bury, burn, or gasify: assessing municipal solid waste management options in Indian megacities by exergy analysis
Summary
Sachin B. Jadhao, Sunil G. Shingade, Aniruddha B. Pandit & Bhavik R. Bakshi Clean Technologies and Environmental Policy 19, 1403– 1412(2017) 616 Accesses 6 Citations Metrics Abstract With increasing consumption propelled by economic prosperity, waste generation per capita in developing countries is growing quickly. Traditional approaches of open dumping and landfilling are encountering physical constraints, particularly in megacities, and the need for alternate municipal solid waste (MSW) management strategies is urgent. Among alternatives that are commonly considered are waste-to-energy technologies including incineration and plasma gasification. Previous studies convey the benefits of such technologies, but most do not consider the waste and environmental conditions in tropical megacities such as Mumbai, India, making these studies of limited use to developing countries.
