Thesis Abstract


Agricultural and food waste generated globally each year represents an untapped renewable energy resource. This study aims to analyze the types and quantities of waste produced from various agricultural and food industry processes in [location]. The energy content of different waste streams will be determined through proximate and ultimate analysis. Potential conversion technologies such as anaerobic digestion, combustion, gasification and fermentation will be evaluated to assess their technical feasibility and energy yields. A life cycle assessment will provide insights into the environmental impacts of different waste to energy pathways. The economic viability of setting up decentralized waste to energy plants will also be examined. The results of this study can help inform sustainable waste management strategies and development of renewable energy sources in the region.
