Difference between Plasma gasification and Waste-to-energy

Plasma gasification vs. Waste-to-energy

Plasma gasification is an extreme thermal process using plasma which converts organic matter into a syngas (synthesis gas) which is primarily made up of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Waste-to-energy (WtE) or energy-from-waste (EfW) is the process of generating energy in the form of electricity and/or heat from the primary treatment of waste, or the processing of waste into a fuel source.

Similarities between Plasma gasification and Waste-to-energy

Plasma gasification and Waste-to-energy have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Biodegradable waste, Biomass, Carbon monoxide, Gasification, Hydrogen, Incineration, Municipal solid waste, Pyrolysis, Syngas.

Biodegradable waste

Biodegradable waste includes any organic matter in waste which can be broken down into carbon dioxide, water, methane or simple organic molecules by micro-organisms and other living things using composting, aerobic digestion, anaerobic digestion or similar processes.

Municipal solid waste

Municipal solid waste (MSW), commonly known as trash or garbage in the United States and rubbish in Britain, is a waste type consisting of everyday items that are discarded by the public.

Syngas

Syngas, or synthesis gas, is a fuel gas mixture consisting primarily of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and very often some carbon dioxide.
