Summary:This book offers a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the technologies and processes involved in energy generation through waste treatment. It serves as a valuable resource, providing all the necessary information and tools for selecting the most sustainable waste-to-energy solution in various conditions. Moreover, it delves into real-life examples of the circular economy in action, offering a comprehensive overview from multiple perspectives. It employs a range of methodologies, including lifecycle assessment, sustainability assessment, multi-criteria decision-making, and multi-objective optimization modes. By combining these approaches, it offers a robust framework for evaluating waste-to-energy options.Furthermore, the book provides a thorough overview of waste-to-energy feedstocks, technologies, and implementation. It goes beyond mere description, delving into the critical factors and key enablers that influence the sustainable development of the waste-to-energy industry. By addressing these factors, the book facilitates the transformation towards a circular economy, moving beyond the traditional "call to arms" approach.This book is an invaluable resource for researchers and policymakers in the energy sector. It equips them with the scientific methodology and metrics necessary to develop strategies for a viable sustainability transition. Additionally, it serves as a key reference for students, researchers, and practitioners seeking to deepen their knowledge of energy planning and the current and future trends of biofuel as an alternative fuel
