What is Waste-to-Energy? Principles of operation and development potential in Vietnam
With rapid urbanization and increasing household waste, Vietnam is facing significant challenges in waste management. In this context, Waste-to-Energy (WtE) technology emerges as a promising solution, not only helping to address environmental pollution but also diversifying energy sources and aiming for sustainable development. So, what is Waste-to-Energy, how does it work, and what is its development potential in Vietnam? Let’s explore in detail in this article.
What is Waste-to-Energy?
Waste-to-Energy is a form of renewable energy generated by converting waste into electrical or thermal energy. This advanced technology has been widely adopted in developed countries to solve the dual problem of waste treatment and energy production.
