Solution

The correct option is C Pyrolysis
Pyrolysis can be used as the best alternative for incineration, because it is a process of combustion in absence of oxygen. As we know the end products of incineration are mainly carbondioxide and water. While the end products of pyrolysis are fuel oil and fuel gas, which can be used as a heat source for long distance transportation and these fuel gas will also reduce soil pollution.
