Energy Estimation and Implementaion from Municipal Solid Waste

Energy can be recovered from waste by various technologies. It is important that recyclable material is removed first, and that energy recovered from what remains, i.e. from the residual waste. We can generate energy from most of the sources like solar, wind, hydro, coal as a fuel in plant etc. But in most there is cost problems for plant establishing, running, maintenance or availability of resources (fuels) which are going to be exhausted one day. So in the country like INDIA where the population is growing up drastically, the waste products are also making their places which may affect the people and the community in regretful manner. Therefore we will have to minimize and utilize it in useful work. So as for this purpose, a case study related to the municipal solid waste of local areas has been estimated and the certain calculations regarding the calorific value of waste as per the requirement of energy are done so that we can get better result in perceiving energy from waste. In this paper, the energy estimation from municipal waste is carried out for the city Nagpur which is located in central INDIA.
