| Abstract | Rouf, Md. Abdur 1 Senior Assistant Engineer, Local Government Engineering Department (LGED), Bangladesh Abstract. Municipal solid waste is a serious environmental hazard and social problem in Bangladesh. Currently a massive volume of solid waste is generated every day in the Municipal areas and unfortunately solid waste management is being deteriorated day by day. Consequently the country has had serious crisis of electricity, load shedding is now impractical as living standards and become a great barrier in socioeconomical growth. Now, interest in renewable energy resources from organic solid wastes has increased, as there is a huge amount of energy locked in these wastes. By meeting the both, power generation from MSW can play a vital role in socio-economical development of the country. A study on the potential of such energy resources is presented in this paper. The study conducted through personal in depth interview; data collection from primary and secondary sources; MSW sample collection with performing laboratory test; data processing and analysis; and drawing recommendation and conclusion. It is found that electricity production from MSW could be an alternative way of power generation as well as waste management. |
