The old practice of waste disposal has been to dump in open landfills, landfills which results in garbage in and garbage remains. The goal for the new millennium must be garbage in and energy out in an environmentally acceptable manner.

Incineration
reducing mass and volume of wastes effectively destroying hazardous components of the waste
High Hi ht temperature t (650 (650-1,200 1 200 C) is i employed l d for f combustion b ti process. Incineration of waste materials converts the waste into ash, flue gas and heat. Effective controls are required to prevent the negative impacts on human health and environment.
Incineration
Anaerobic Digestion
Anaerobic digestion can be used as a pre-treatment to reduce the volume and stabilize material for disposal in landfills. Organic fractions in MSW is decomposed by anaerobic microorganisms. Methane is a predominant product from anaerobic digestion. In addition to energy recovery recovery, digestate can be further used as soil conditioner.
Landfill Gas to Energy Landfill stands alone as the only waste disposal that can deal with all materials in the solid waste stream. Landfill is considered the simplest, and in many areas the cheapest, of disposal methods. Outputs after composition are:
Collection and control of landfill gas is needed for safety and environmental reasons. The collected landfill gas can be:
RDF involves the mechanical processing to recover recyclable materials and to produce a combustible product. RDF can be processed to half the calorific value of coal coal. RDF can be co-fired with other fuels in a variety of industrial boilers. Weaknesses
Plasma Arc
Temperatures 4,000C to over 7,000 C Hazardous & toxic compounds broken down to elemental constituents by high temperatures Organic materials are converted to fuel gases Residual materials (inorganics, heavy metals, etc.) immobilized in a rock-like vitrified mass which is highly resistant to leaching
The Plama Arc Plant at MihamaMikata, Japan converts unprocessed MSW and WWTP sludge to fuel gas.

CONCLUSION
Conclusion
From holistic comparison, p incineration is advantageous g for global warming and photochemical ozone formation but is disadvantageous for acidification and nutrient enrichment. Incineration could not play the major role for electricity production, but in addition to being a waste management option, could be considered as a complement to conventional power production. To improve the environmental performance of MSW incineration incineration, providing deNOx and dioxin removal processes, separation of high moisture content waste fractions and improvement of the operation efficiency should be considered
Incineration with energy recovery or Landfilling a d g without t out energy recovery Which is a superior system ?

CONCLUSION
Conclusion
Conclusion
Incineration was found to be superior superior to landfiling in term of global warming and photo-oxidant formation Landfilling g was better for acidification and nutrient enrichment. Landfilling reversed to be superior to incineration in term of global warming when methane is recovered for electricity production
50% recovery of landfill gas leads to the reduction of 58% GWP and 37% POP
Increasing the efficiency of plastic separation can reduce GWP Separation of high moisture content of feed stock could improve the environmental performance of MSW incineration If NO2 is removed by de-NOx equipment, AP and NEP will be decreased
