In this project, a waste-to-energy plant is introduced in Bac Ninh province. This plant incinerates and generates electricity from 230 tons/day of municipal solid waste, which has been disposed of as landfill. The plant also incinerates and generates electricity from 120 tons/day of municipal solid waste and 150 tons/day of industrial solid waste, which were previously incinerated.
This scheme enables the proper waste treatment and the supply of electricity without the use of fossil fuels. It also reduces methane emissions from landfill sites and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by replacing grid electricity.
