Solar energy from waste incineration
Waste-to-energy incineration is an effective and sustainable solution to reduce produced waste and simultaneously generates electricity utilizing thermal energy. The waste-to-electrical efficiency of conventional incineration plants is limited to 20–25% due to the higher amount of moisture content in the feedstock and flue gas heat losses.

Municipal solid waste incineration is an effective technology as a smart measure for the disposal of municipal waste and generating green energy. In this work, a novel solar integrated WtE incineration plant producing electricity, hydrogen and freshwater was proposed, analyzed, and studied.
Using clean solar energy along with proper waste management (converting waste into energy) can be a key and fruitful step in achieving a sustainable society in developing cities. Accordingly, the main objectives and novelties of the current article can be summarized as follows:.
Waste-to-Energy (WTE) refers to technologies that turn non-recyclable waste into energy like heat, fuels, and electricity. This can be done through incineration , gasification, pyrolysis, anaerobic digestion and landfill gas recovery . Incineration burns waste at high temperatures to recover energy. Modern facilities use equipment to control .
The purpose of the present review paper is to detail the discussion of evolution of waste to energy incineration and specifically to highlight the currently used and advanced incineration technologies, including combined incineration with other energy, for instance, hydrogen production, coal and solar energy.
