Economic growth coupled with sustainable development is one of the greatest challenges imposed on nations, worldwide, in this century. In this scenario, the diversification of the energy matrix, with an increase in renewable sources, and the integrated management of municipal solid waste (MSW), with an increase in recycling and technologies for treatment, are among the main goals of devel…
The use of biomass energy conversion processes is, nowadays, one of the main alternatives to fossil fuels. In this context, the energy recovery from waste materials is a possible use for biomass as an energy source, which does not compete with food crops for planted area. Amongst the main limitations for using biomass for energy purposes, some relevant characteristics should be mentioned:…

Brazil follows, as every developing country, a growth trajectory in the production-consumption chain, which brings, among other consequences, an increase in energy demand and an increase in waste generation. Associating the treatment of these discarded materials with energy generation is a reality already practiced in other countries, and there are already several technologies for the imp…
The increase in waste generation combined with the need for environmentally adequate disposal has become the focus of public administrations in all spheres. Municipal solid waste (MSW) is composed of several heterogeneous materials that have high energy content and can be used as raw material for energy generation. The energy recovery of MSW can be carried out from biochemical processes, …
