Question

How can energy be generated from waste material?

Answer 1

Instructions:

• Waste generation in cities and towns
• Process of energy generation
• Use of the energy

Solution:
Big cities and towns, due to large population, generate waste on a​ very large scale.

This waste includes biotic as well as abiotic waste material. Hence, after the segregation of the waste, the biotic components can be used to generate gas. This gas can further be used to generate power.

Power generation from the gas created from the waste material can solve two of the major problems in the cities:​

1. Disposal of biotic waste​
2. Solving the issue of energy crisis in big cities
