Summary:
This 90-minute webinar will
provide the latest status report on the constantly evolving waste-to-energy (WTE)
and conversion technologies (CT) landscape, beginning with an overview of the
solid waste management landscape in the US, and a look at what lies ahead for
these technologies. Information will be provided on the evolution of the
environmental impact of WTE facilities and improvements made over the past 40
years, with the advent of better technology and increased environmental
awareness.
GBB tracks over 500 different WTE and CT companies and their technologies,
facilities and services, up from 150+ in 2009, whose developmental stages range
from engineering drawings and laboratory models to full-scale operating
prototypes. This webinar will include the latest information on these
technologies, their costs, and the current status of projects developing across
North America and Europe. It will also provide a review of WTE technologies as
an element of integrated solid waste management systems and highlight some of
the advances that have been moved into production units to make WTE
environmentally friendly. An overview of the more significant offerings that
have received demonstration grants or have significant operating or prototype
facilities will also be provided along with a look at what lies ahead. A review
of the risks and challenges associated with implementing various technologies
will be provided. It will also include a brief look at plants worldwide with a
focus on facilities, technologies and companies operating in the U.S.
The webinar will conclude with brief case studies of municipalities expanding,
developing, or exploring WTE/CT facilities.
