Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Practically all leaders of developed nations recognize the importance to follow policies and strategies to achieve an effective management of Municipal Solid Waste based on new and innovative technologies able to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create new employment and growth.
This Special Issue aims to provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art in Municipal Solid Waste Gasification, discussing a set of new technology approaches and environmental and economic implications.
Topics will broadly include, but not be limited to:
- Computer Fluid Dynamics;
- Theoretical studies;
- Techno-economic analysis;
- Policy analysis;
- Experimental activities;
- Technical data to target robust decision making and public engagement.
