This webinar provides an overview of integrated solid waste management in the U.S., and the economics that drive the systems. It focuses on the current state of solid waste management, data about programs and facilities, system costs and the value of recyclables.
Since technology plays an important role in the economics of these systems, the constantly evolving Waste-to-Energy (WTE) and conversion technologies (CT) landscape are also highlighted with an overview of the latest, updated information on technologies, costs and current type of projects developing across the continent.
The presentation concludes with an educated look at what lies ahead in the industry both from environmental and economic standpoints.
