Waste incineration is a process that involves burning waste materials at high temperatures to reduce their volume and mass. This method helps to minimize the amount of waste that ends up in landfills, while also generating energy in the form of heat, which can be used to produce electricity. The incineration process typically involves several stages, including combustion, gas cleaning, and ash disposal. Modern incinerators are equipped with advanced technologies to control emissions and reduce pollutants, making them a more environmentally friendly option compared to older methods. However, concerns about air quality and toxic byproducts remain important considerations in waste management.
