Some of the local people object to having an incinerator near their homes. Suggest why?

This chapter provides an overview of waste generation, waste stream composition, and incineration in the context of waste management. Communities are faced with the challenge of developing waste-management approaches from options that include reduction of waste generated, incineration, landfilling, recycling, reuse,1 and composting. Waste-management options other than incineration are discussed here to illustrate that a combination of options, such as recycling, with incineration can alter the characteristics of waste streams fed to incineration facilities. However, the committee was not charged to undertake a comparative assessment of waste-management options.

In general, any incineration facility will incorporate the following processes: waste storage and handling, processing to prepare waste, combustion, air-pollution control, and residue (ash) handling. The types of waste-incineration facilities discussed in this report include incinerators, industrial boilers, furnaces, and kilns (see Chapter 3). There is a large variety of technology, varying from stationary facilities designed to combust millions of tons of waste per year collected from a broad geographical area, down to mobile incinerators used to remediate wastes from specific sites that are contaminated by hazardous waste.
