A waste-to-energy project: A complex approach towards the assessment of investment risks

Applied thermal engineering solutions through process integration, modelling and optimisation

“…Ferdan et al [43] present a complex methodology towards investment risk quantification in a waste-to-energy (WTE) project. A novel approach is M A N U S C R I P T…”

“…Process models may vary in resolution, complexity, and rigour but when developed properly within a meaningful set of assumptions become the mean for an exhaustive investigation and evaluation of multiple process configurations and operating conditions. Two contributions in this field discuss the modelling of turbulent free jets [42] and of waste supply chains [43].…”

Optimized energy use through systematic short-term management of industrial waste incineration

“…However, from a practical perspective, most models available in literature are insufficiently interconnected and have in general a limited implementability [45]. Less attention has been devoted to WtE applications in industry although different WtE technologies are known [42] and especially continuous energy-intensive industries have been proven to have a high potential for energy recovery from waste, thus contributing toward emission reduction, increase of energy efficiency and process cost reduction [15].…”

Determining critical risk factors affecting public‐private partnership waste‐to‐energy incineration projects in China

“…Thanks to the joint efforts of numerous scholars worldwide, risk management research concerning PPP WTE incineration projects has gained sustainable achievements, and the emphasis has been on such issues as health problems, public acceptance, decision‐making models, economic problems, and so on . However, there are still some deficiencies in the study of the systematic risk identification of these specific projects.…”

“…Thanks to the joint efforts of numerous scholars worldwide, risk management research concerning PPP WTE incineration projects has gained sustainable achievements, and the emphasis has been on such issues as health problems, public acceptance, decision-making models, economic problems, and so on. [12][13][14][15] However, there are still some deficiencies in the study of the systematic risk identification of these specific projects. First, previous studies 4,9,10,16 identified critical risk factors through case studies, mainly based on practice and past occurrence data rather than potential risk data conforming to risk management knowledge frameworks.…”
