Beschreibung
Case Study from the year 2024 in the subject Environmental Sciences - Sustainability, grade: A, University of Sindh (Environmental), language: English, abstract: Sustainability in the aspect of power generation is a critical aspect of power generation, as the social and environmental angle of power generation has rarely been given priority in favor of economic gains. Therefore, there is a need to design new techniques that meet these objectives and criteria of sustainability. This research evaluates the ability of the MSW to energy conversion via WTE technologies and the ability of WTE plants to supply power during the peak energetic demands of Pakistan. In the current study, two variants of Mass Burn with recyclable materials and Mass Burn without recyclable materials for two cities, Islamabad was taken into account. The assessment of the prospective of Mass Burn with recyclable material showed that the specified city may generate up to 205 MW of electricity with positive social, economic and environmental effects. Conducted observations show that the energy generation from the waste decreases GHG emission compared to landfills, which were 65 % for Islamabad, and also facilitates the development of a supply chain system with economic and social returns.
