As increasing attention is drawn to the proliferation of single-use plastics and discarded plastics in oceans and waterways, solid waste managers are under increasing pressure to implement solutions that not only properly manage these discards, but also recover their energy value during the process.
A new report by the Solid Waste Association of North America’s (SWANA) Applied Research Foundation (ARF), Energy Recovery Options for Non-Recycled Plastic Discards, evaluates three system options available to solid waste managers for the recovery of energy from non-recycled waste plastics.
The full report, Energy Recovery Options for Non-Recycled Plastic Discards, is available free for SWANA members, and for purchase to the general public. Download/Purchase full report here »
