Palabras clave: Waste-to-Energy (WTE),, Solid Waste Management, Circular Economy, Carbon Neutral, Recycling Culture

Resumen

The last few decades have seen a significant increase in the global problem of solid waste management, with annual production exceeding 2 million tons. The situation of having 2010 million tons poses not only environmental, but also social and economic challenges. This is because, if waste is not properly managed, it can contaminate soil, water and air, which has a negative impact on public health and biodiversity.
