As the world gets ready to embrace future challenges, there must be a rethinking of several very important issues; maintaining our water resources, drastic reduction of carbon emissions to lessen greenhouse gases and a better approach to disposing and recycling waste. Our economic system is not harmonious so the task of recycling and reusing won’t be an easy transition.
Citizens of the world need to better understand how waste is conceived and that it isn’t just a wasted material, but a very valuable commodity. The first to recognize or rethink this aspect, were the waste management companies or as we now refer to them as, commodity management companies.
It is expected that as early as the year 2030, waste will not be burned or buried, but instead reprocessed into valuable resources that manufacturers will require for industrial use. Waste to Energy plants have evolved in the last ten years with technological advancements in design and processing including but not limited to:
In addition to the material achievements and advancements, the sector has also realized a socio-economic benefit as well: creation of skilled jobs.
