Wrong Tracks in Waste Management

Waste Management is ubiquitous in our everyday life. Economic prosperity and the abundance of materialistic goods imply the generation of waste. In parallel the public awareness for environmentally sound solutions in the field of waste management is raising. This context imposes challenging conditions for political leaders.

They are approached by vendors of waste treatment technologies or concepts, claiming high environmental and energetic performance, combined with profitable cost - benefit rates.

This chapter is a summary of the lessons learned from many successful and unsuccessful waste to energy projects. It focuses on the relevant risks, which the project owner has to take care for. The project owner is the entity which initiates a project, finances it and profits from its outputs.
