Recycling and Waste Management

6

th

International Conference on

S

olid waste management SWM is one of the most significant

challenges being faced by the world today. SWM hierarchy

consists of reduction of waste volume, reuse, and reduction

of the toxicity, recycle, recover energy; waste disposal in an

environmentally sound manner. Waste incineration to heat is

an effective conversion of large volumes of combustible waste,

simple and robust process, consequently the heat produced can

be recoveredtogeneratesteamor electricity. This leads tosaving

conventional fossil fuels. Good in densely populated urban

areas where large sites suitable for landfilling are not available.

Waste incineration suffers high capital cost and skilled operators

are required (particularly for boiler operations), considering

that some of the waste materials are non-combustible, and

then supplemental fuel would be needed. Public disapproval

of incineration with the risk imposed rather than voluntary.

Solid waste composting is biochemical process where organic

materials decompose into humus like material, with aerobic

organisms in mechanical digesters with the presence of oxygen.

This would save land footprint that can be needed to separate

waste. This study is aimed at identifying evolving technological

trends, competitor’s distribution and technological convergence

pattern between ICTs and SWM technology. This paper is

organized into several sections, starting with the literature

review in Section 2. Section 3 provides the answers to the

research questions through analyses and discussion. Finally,

Section 4 presents summary of conclusions of the paper.
