Food waste can be converted into electricity through a process called anaerobic digestion. Anaerobic digestion is a natural process in which microorganisms break down organic matter in the absence of oxygen, producing methane-rich biogas as a by-product. This biogas can be captured and used to generate electricity. The process of anaerobic digestion typically begins by collecting food waste, which is then mixed with water and other organic matter, such as livestock manure or sewage, to create a slurry. This slurry is
In the pyrolysis process, waste plastics are heated in the absence of oxygen to break them down into their constituent parts, such as oil, gas, and char. These products can then be used to generate electricity. There are several ways to generate electricity from the products of pyrolysis: The oil and gas produced through pyrolysis can be burned in a generator to produce electricity. The char produced through pyrolysis can be used as a fuel in a power plant to generate electricity. The oil
