Waste-energy-climate nexus perspective towards circular economy: a mini review

Population growth requires high demand for vast resources, which includes energy and the consumption of goods. With this strangling situation, many developing countries – including Malaysia; need to face other associated issues such as waste generation as well as climate change. To survive this daun...

To survive this daunting scenario, a smart alternative known as Waste-to-Energy (WtE) technology emerges as a viable solution to overcome these contemporary challenges. By implementing this technology, waste can be transformed into new energy sources that can be used to meet the needs of the standard energy requirement, whilst, solving mass pollution problems.
