 ABSTRACT

This paper explores the performances of four waste-to-energy (WTE) technologies ,

inceneration, gasification, centralised anaerobic digestion and decentralized anaerobic
digestion. It compares a standalone financial analysis of the technologies to one conducted
which takes into account the broader waste managemnt programme in which technologies to
one conducted which takes into account using the city of Cape Town, South Africa , as a case
study , inceneration was the preferred option in both the standalone and integrated analysis , when
using levelised cost of waste as the performance indicator. The ordering of the remaining
technologies , however , was different in the standalone and integrated analysis. Furthermost ,
the ranking of technologies changed when electricity generation and waste diversion potential were
used as the performance indicators. These results of the study thus demonstrate that if waste-
to-energy is to be considered as an option for processing waste and generating electricity ,
technologies must not be considered in isolation of the results do not present a fair reflection
of the financial performance of the technology. In addition, taking on board multiple criteria
influences the selection of preferred technology.
