Incineration of waste, a method adopted by most countries, is usually not possible in Delhi due to the state’s unique waste composition (which has very high moisture content), say experts. Incineration or thermal treatment is a technology for waste management that involves burning of organic material at a high temperature.
The process, which converts waste into heat energy, can then be used to generate electric power. According to environmentalists, the incineration process in India and in other parts of the world, is usually carried out at low temperatures “probably to save fuel (particularly in Delhi)” resulting in high toxic emissions. A study reveals that municipal waste incinerators produce the highest amount of dioxin air emissions
