Waste to energy (WTE) technologies can use a variety of refuse types and technologies to produce electrical power. The direct use of municipal solid waste (MSW) and refuse derived fuel (RDF) to generate power are addressed in this section. Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) Latest Developments
Title Summary pubDate 31-May-11 Poland Changes Waste Poland has seven Waste to Energy projects in the pipeline, with calls for Handling Responsibility, tenders for four of these projects currently underway. More WTE Possible EBRD to Support Waste The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is to Energy in Kazahkstan considering establishing a Kazahkstan Waste Management Facility. The two main objectives of the acility will be to provide financing and technical assistance for the realisation of waste-to-energy projects, which will demonstrate the benefits of energy recovery from waste in conjunction with the introduction of modern waste management approaches. Azerbaijan: Substation at WTE Plant Needed Azerbaijani Economic Development Ministry has announced a tender to purchase work on the installation of certain auxiliaries and a 15/110 kV substation to transmit electricity produced at the municipal solid waste incineration plant to the state energy system, the tender commission said recently.

Slovenia Spreads Renewable Energy Expertise Five Percent of Serbian Electricity From WTE Minister
Under these MoUs, Slovenian entrepreneurs will provide new 28-Nov-10 technologies to develop alternate/renewable energy resources in order to meet the ever-increasing demand for power in this part of the world with special focus on reducing the emission of greenhouse gases. Serbia could produce three to five percent of its electric and heat energy 11-Mar-10 from waste, Minister for Mining and Energy Petar kundri says. 25-Nov-09
Latvian Municipal Solid LatgaleMSW facility is offered for sale. Various operating and financing Waste Facility Offered - options are presented. Biogas Options Outlined Russian Wood Waste Thought to be 175M Tonnes Per Year. According to Mikhail Kovalchuk, Director of Moscow's Kurchatov Nuclear Research Institute, 175 million tonnes of wood waste remain unprocessed in Russia annually. The amount of energy that can be produced by this volume of waste would be equivalent to the energy of all petrol consumed in Russia every year.

Recycling/Waste to Energy Income Trust International (EITI), a Canadian renewable energy 31-Aug-09 Energy Plant Considered company that develops waste-to-energy projects worldwide, said it plans for Macedonia to invest some $200 million (140 million euro) in a plant for waste recycling and production of renewable energy in Macedonia, Skopjebased media reported on Monday. Russia Considers More Waste to Energy Moscow has turned to generating electricity from its 5 million tones of 18-Apr-09 annual refuse, with plans for 6 new incinerators to turn household waste into watts.
NFI Foksal Fund Wants Warsaw (Puls Biznesu) NFI Foksal wants to win EUR 1.55 billion 23-Aug-07 to Produce Energy From market. It will get rid of waste and produce energy. Foksal will buy 51.05 Waste percent in Energo-Eko. Today, the waste energy is not treated as renewable one but the Ministry of Economy wants to change it. A suitable regulation will be ready this year, Grzegorz Kubica added. In addition, the company will be able to sell rights to emit carbon dioxide. UK-Hungarian Energy Merger British based company ENER-G Plc, has acquired leading Hungarian 27-Jul-06 energy service provider Kipszer Kazntechnolgiai Zrt. ENER-G will bring services such as renewable energy and waste to energy to eastern europe.
"Existing engine technology combined with a controlled gradual shift to biofuels and increased use of robust hybrid systems will lead the way into a sustainable and affordable public transport system," said Scania's Hasse Johansson at the opening session of the UITP world congress in Rome, recommending the way forward for urban bus transport in the next 15-20 years.

economically viable unless a high tipping fee can be secured. Environmental Impacts The products of combustion of MSW are similar to those of most organic combustion materials. Particulate matter must be abated and nitrogen oxides can form if the combustion temperature is too high. Unlike coal, the sulfur emissions from MSW are low. One possible emission that is atypical of other fuels is dioxin. The US EPA has ruled that some types of dioxins are carcinogenic. This issue is debated intensely in the scientific community, but MSW plant construction faces opposition in many communities because of it. An obvious benefit of burning MSW is that it reduces landfill deposits. The bottom ash recovered from a MSW furnace is reduced to one-tenth of its original volume.
Economics Economic feasibility of WTE facilities is generally difficult to assess. Costs are highly dependent on transportation, processing, and tipping fees associated with a particular location. Values given in this section should be considered representative of the technology at a generic site.
