Abstract

Thermochemical technologies used to burn municipal solid waste are one of the relatively new and appropriate methods for waste management. By burning waste, heat and gases have arisen which can be used as the energy source to generate electricity. Due to the high cost, pollution emissions and diversity of such power plants, comprehensive studies are required. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the thermal methods in the field of waste management and to optimum for the most suitable methods. The selected thermochemical technologies include incineration, gasification, plasma, and pyrolysis. Data gathering was done through a questionnaire completed by experts. The decision-making models based on the Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) and the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) methods are proposed to select the best thermochemical technology by the technical, economic, and environmental criteria. Ultimately, the environmental criteria (0.355), economic criteria (0.338) and, technical criteria (0.307) were introduced as the most effective criterion in choosing thermal methods respectively. The results of both AHP and TOPSIS models showed that the plasma method is the optimal thermochemical technology in terms of three existing criteria. Incinerator, gasification, and pyrolysis systems were ranked next.
