Cebu city government should use Incineration power plant to solve the crisis in Garbage collection.

Modern incinerators include pollution mitigation equipment such as flue gas cleaning. There are various types of incinerator plant design: moving grate, fixed grate, rotary-kiln, and fluidised bed.


Incineration is a waste treatment process that involves the combustion of organic substances contained in waste materials.[1] Incineration and other high-temperature waste treatment systems are described as "thermal treatment". Incineration of waste materials converts the waste into ash, flue gas, and heat. The ash is mostly formed by the inorganic constituents of the waste, and may take the form of solid lumps or particulates carried by the flue gas. The flue gases must be cleaned of gaseous and particulate pollutants before they are dispersed into the atmosphere. In some cases, the heat generated by incineration can be used to generate electric power.

Incineration with energy recovery is one of several waste-to-energy (WtE) technologies such as gasification, pyrolysis and anaerobic digestion. While incineration and gasification technologies are similar in principle, the energy product from incineration is high-temperature heat whereas combustible gas is often the main energy product from gasification. Incineration and gasification may also be implemented without energy and materials recovery.

In several countries, there are still concerns from experts and local communities about the environmental impact of incinerators (see arguments against incineration).

In some countries, incinerators built just a few decades ago often did not include a materials separation to remove hazardous, bulky or recyclable materials before combustion. These facilities tended to risk the health of the plant workers and the local environment due to inadequate levels of gas cleaning and combustion process control. Most of these facilities did not generate electricity.

Incinerators reduce the solid mass of the original waste by 80–85% and the volume (already compressed somewhat in garbage trucks) by 95–96%, depending on composition and degree of recovery of materials such as metals from the ash for recycling.[2] This means that while incineration does not completely replace landfilling, it significantly reduces the necessary volume for disposal. Garbage trucks often reduce the volume of waste in a built-in compressor before delivery to the incinerator. Alternatively, at landfills, the volume of the uncompressed garbage can be reduced by approximately 70%[citation needed] by using a stationary steel compressor, albeit with a significant energy cost. In many countries, simpler waste compaction is a common practice for compaction at landfills.

Incineration has particularly strong benefits for the treatment of certain waste types in niche areas such as clinical wastes and certain hazardous wastes where pathogens and toxins can be destroyed by high temperatures. Examples include chemical multi-product plants with diverse toxic or very toxic wastewater streams, which cannot be routed to a conventional wastewater treatment plant.

Waste combustion is particularly popular in countries such as Japan where land is a scarce resource. Denmark and Sweden have been leaders in using the energy generated from incineration for more than a century, in localised combined heat and power facilities supporting district heating schemes.[3] In 2005, waste incineration produced 4.8% of the electricity consumption and 13.7% of the total domestic heat consumption in Denmark.[4] A number of other European countries rely heavily on incineration for handling municipal waste, in particular Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Germany and France.[2]

R.A 8749 - Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999

Art 3 Sec 20

SEC. 20. Ban on Incineration.- Incineration, hereby defined as the burning of municipal, biomedical and hazardous waste, which process emits poisonous and toxic fumes is hereby prohibited; Provided, however, That the prohibition shall not apply to traditional small-scale method of community/neighborhood sanitation “siga”, traditional, agricultural, cultural, health, and food preparation and crematoria; Provided, further, That existing incinerators dealing with a biomedical wastes shall be out within three (3) years after the effectivity of this Act; Provided, finally, that in the interim, such units shall be limited to the burning of pathological and infectious wastes, and subject to close monitoring by the Department.

Local government units are hereby mandated to promote, encourage and implement in their respective jurisdiction a comprehensive ecological waste management that includes waste segregation, recycling and composting.

With due concern on the effects of climate change, the Department shall promote the use of state-of-the-art, environmentally-sound and safe non-burn technologies for the handling, treatment, thermal destruction, utilization, and disposal of sorted, unrecycled, uncomposted, biomedical and hazardous wastes.

it would add heat to our already warm climate...

no! pinas should use geothermal plants. it is expensive but it is renewable and sustainable energy. plus abundant ang geothermal sites sa pinas.

philippines should focus on two renewable and sustainable source of energy mainly Geothermal and Natural Gas which is abundant in our country and since we are a tropical country we can also harness supplemental energy by using Hydro Power Plants.

Nuclear Power Plant is the best but must have Safety Measures .... Safety Measures at Nuclear Power Plants - The Federation of Electric Power Companies of Japan(FEPC)

And one site even suggested to use fat people. They give off too much heat. Put these fat people in a small room and the fart, sweat, and heat will turn turbines for electricity.

Concerning about the Environment well the ... Modern incinerators include pollution mitigation equipment such as flue gas cleaning.

The gas that emits is already clean from harmful substances ... even the Japanese are using this type of power plant
so that their land would be free of Garbage.

The emission from public transport is WORST if you compare it to this type Incinerator Power Plant.

Jeepney is the worst emission of polluted air ....

Besides Coal Power plant is much more pollutant and destructive since it also emits Gasses out from burning coal
so why Not replace the Coal Power to Incinerator Power.

Incinerator can help reduce Garbage in the City and as well City can generate income from Electricity it produces.

It hits 2-Birds with 1-Stone if you use Incinerator power plant.

What about the Coal Power Plant ?...... Would It NOT add Heat ?

Coal Power is much more Pollution since you need timber to burn before it turns into electricity.

Why Not simply replace the Coal Power into Incinerator Power ?

Incinerator Power Plant has NO pollution since Modern incinerators include pollution mitigation equipment
such as flue gas cleaning.

Incinerator Power Plant also REDUCES GARBAGE occupying a big acre of land.

kita ko ug documentary ani sa NOVA less pollution man daw ni if you burn it to extremely high temperature, plus it can generate electricity pud.

think about the source of heat to burn those garbages in HIGH temperatures. still not sustainable and efficient.
