Abstract:
Production of waste is increasing day by day and it is creating a vast threat to our environment.
This large amount of waste creates environmental pollution. But these wastes are a huge source
of energy. Wastes can be converted into valuable resources by an environmentally friendly waste
management system. Waste to Energy (WTE) study focuses on the process which utilizes wastes
to generate energy in form of electricity. This thesis presents modeling and implementation of a
effective waste management system to convert waste into resources and electricity. Also,
discusses various methods to process different categories of waste to produce energy in form of
electricity and estimate the total electricity production from a certain amount of waste. Also
presents a futuristic model of a combined waste management system, which generates electricity
from waste in a way, which uses every single municipal solid waste (MSW) and causes less
environmental pollution. The main purpose of this thesis is to introduce a combined waste
management system that is sustainable environmentally friendly and effective.
