At present, the amount of waste generated is increasing, and its nature is more and more complex, which arises the need to develop the capacity of waste processing/ recycling to solve environmental problems. In many countries around the world, urban solid waste gasification technologies are being used extensively. These technologies have both created gas-rich products and limited the formation of dioxin compounds and a large amount of SOx and NOx, which reduces the cost of cleaning after burning. This paper assesses the application potential of a gasification technology for waste treatment, which helps generate energy and essential products, contributing to the economic growth.
