waste-to-energy scheme

Waste-to-energy scheme means incineration of waste with recovery of generated energy. Waste-to-energy schemes turn waste into steam or electricity to heat, cool, light and/or otherwise power homes and industry through the process of combustion. Just as coal, oil or natural gas is burned in boilers to generate electricity, waste is used as a fuel to generate power.
