Waste incineration is the process of burning waste materials to generate energy or dispose of them. However, this process can be detrimental to the environment due to emissions of toxic gases. As a result, some alternative terms for waste incineration include thermal treatment, waste-to-energy conversion, combustion, pyrolysis, and gasification. Thermal treatment involves subjecting waste materials to heat in a controlled environment, while waste-to-energy conversion refers to the process of utilizing the energy produced during the combustion process. Combustion involves burning the waste materials to produce energy, while pyrolysis converts the waste into gas or liquid fuel. Lastly, gasification converts the waste materials into a gas mixture that can be used as fuel.
