Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/88f2a1/municipal_solid_wa)
has announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons Ltd’s new book “Municipal
Solid Waste to Energy Conversion Processes: Economic, Technical, and
Renewable Comparisons” to their offering.

A technical and economic review of emerging waste disposal technologies

Intended for a wide audience ranging from engineers and academics to
decision-makers in both the public and private sectors, Municipal
Solid Waste to Energy Conversion Processes: Economic, Technical, and
Renewable Comparisons reviews the current state of the solid waste
disposal industry. It details how the proven plasma gasification
technology can be used to manage Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) and to
generate energy and revenues for local communities in an environmentally
safe manner with essentially no wastes.

Beginning with an introduction to pyrolysis/gasification and combustion
technologies, the book provides many case studies on various
waste-to-energy (WTE) technologies and creates an economic and technical
baseline from which all current and emerging WTE technologies could be
compared and evaluated.

Topics include:

Pyrolysis/gasification technology, the most suitable and economically
viable approach for the management of wastes

Combustion technology

Other renewable energy resources including wind and hydroelectric
energy

Plasma economics

Cash flows as a revenue source for waste solids-to-energy management

Plant operations, with an independent case study of Eco-Valley plant
in Utashinai, Japan

Extensive case studies of garbage to liquid fuels, wastes to
electricity, and wastes to power ethanol plants illustrate how currently
generated MSW and past wastes in landfills can be processed with proven
plasma gasification technology to eliminate air and water pollution from
landfills.
