Implementation of Waste to Energy as a Sustainable Urban Energy Solution in Sri Lanka Read more about Implementation of Waste to Energy as a Sustainable Urban Energy Solution in Sri Lanka The national perspective of waste to energy (WtE) option as a sustainable urban energy solution in Sri Lanka is explored. Recently, the government has given emphasis for WtE, not only to manage municipal solid waste (MSW) but also to achieve targets in renewable energy and nationally determined contributions. Yet, no significant progress is seen, indicating a variety of challenges related to waste collection, composition, heating value, quantity, transport distance, expertise, finance, land, etc.
Plastics to Power™, Conversion of Marine Debris and Non-Recyclable Waste to Power and Clean Water, the PtP Energy System Read more about Plastics to Power™, Conversion of Marine Debris and Non-Recyclable Waste to Power and Clean Water, the PtP Energy System PtPtm Energy Systems LLC is a Plastics to Power™ Conversion Technology, a barge-mounted or shore-based system to provide wide regional elimination of marine debris, coastal plastic thrash, biomass, municipal non-recyclables, and semi-hazardous waste while producing up to 5 MW power, clean desalinated water, and industrial process heat to shore-side communities. An economic model based on FMCG life cycle costing can readily fund this system, which can be deployed in many locations, especially in the Asian or Oceanic archipelagos.
Waste is Cool! How 'First Mile' Waste Solutions can Cool the Smart Cities of the Future Read more about Waste is Cool! How 'First Mile' Waste Solutions can Cool the Smart Cities of the Future The need for cooling grows dramatically with rising prosperity and global temperatures. But what does that have to do with waste? 70% of the world’s waste today is dumped or landfilled without energy recovery. 2 billion tons of waste ‘wasted’ every year by 2030 correspond to 800GW of solar PV capacity (500GW installed globally today). Done right, waste is one of few ‘fuels’ produced everywhere, and perhaps surprisingly, very suitable for the production of sustainable cooling.
Scene Setting: Reimagining a Sustainable World Through the Lens of Impact Investing Read more about Scene Setting: Reimagining a Sustainable World Through the Lens of Impact Investing In this presentation, Mr. Rai introduced the concept of impact investing, and how it institutionalized microfinance. He also highlighted problems in the waste and agriculture sectors and sample solutions brought about by impact investment. He also emphasized the potential role of Impact Investing in re-imagining renewable energy solutions such as solar and biofuels, and what multilateral institutions such as ADB can do to support this approach.
