Assessing solid waste as ‘green energy economy’ in Indiausing renewable energy technologies for sustainable development

Abstract

Abstract During latest time, solid waste production and controlling are main issuesforall worldnations. yet, the conversion technologies are using to createdifferent byproducts like light, heat energy, fertilizer and biogas etc. Energy is animportantmatter for world. Energygain couldshow a factorfor minimization the effect ofurbanWaste onthe atmosphere withmore advantage to provide anenergy source. The waste disposal is morechallenge and highest dependent on liquid fuel has impelled world to continue efforts in forwarding energy formation technologyensuring suitablechanges on one side and energy flexibility on the other side. In India waste generation rate per person is 0.3 - 0.6 kgs/day, which is estimated to increase at 1.33% annually. As per estimates, about 275000 tons of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is generated per day and this figure could be twice as much by 2030. Estimation exist a power for producingapprox. 1500 MW energy from the municipal solid waste in India and this potential is likely to increase further with economic development. The power production from the specified MSW-RDF gasifier and systemmaximization for energy production from fuel with increased ability to promote extremely minimizing the costing of energy use. The opportunity of power production in the effective manner of better and mass composition of solid wastecurrent WTE practices and research trends in India well as world, with anaerobic digestion (AD), gasification, heat-based biofuel combined heat and power (CHP) production, and incineration with the definedapproaching of Indian WTE application.
