International Solid Waste Association (ISWA) White Paper: Alternative Waste Conversion Technologies, January 2013
– This White Paper is intended as an introduction and overview for decision makers who are considering investments in alternative thermal waste conversion technologies.
“Prospective investors in thermal waste conversion capacity are increasingly and assertively approached by vendors of so-called alternative technologies, claiming high environmental and energetic performance for their technology, combined with cost – benefit rates. The ISWA Working Group Energy Recovery therefore decided to make an inventory of the present status of alternative thermal waste conversion technologies and to develop a guideline for the set of information that would be required to assess the performance and readiness for market introduction of any thermal waste conversion technology being provided to the market.” (pg.2)
