The World Bank estimates that rapid population growth and urbanization have resulted in a global average waste generation of about 0.79 kilograms per citizen per day as of 2022. It predicts a direct relationship between waste generation and income levels and projects the daily per capita waste generation in high-income countries to increase by 19.0...

Waste-to-energy (WtE) conversion is gaining strategic relevance as global waste generation accelerates and environmental regulations tighten. Municipalities and industries are facing mounting pressure to reduce landfill dependence, curb methane emissions, and secure reliable low-carbon energy sources. In this context, WtE is evolving from a seconda...

Food waste management has gained increased emphasis in recent times, especially in the context of the recently adopted United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The initiative is driven mainly by the need to address declining natural resources, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and to reduce waste disposal into landfills. The current study gi...
