Item Transforming Waste into a Valuable Resource: Plasma Technology as a Clean Energy Source(2023-11-29) Jurajuría, Federico; Navarro, RamiroAbstract— In an era of rapid urbanization and industrial expansion, this paper addresses the pressing issue of overpopulation and its direct consequence: environmental contamination. To tackle this challenge, a sustainable and environmentally friendly approach is crucial, particularly in managing the excessive waste generated. One promising solution meeting these criteria is plasma technology for waste treatment. This article divides the discussion into four main sections: the problem of waste generation and its consequences; an introduction to plasma technology for waste treatment; a detailed system operation and energy generation from obtained products; and an analysis of advantages, potential limitations, and overall performance. In sum, this article promotes the adoption and improvement of plasma waste treatment technology to reduce waste, generate clean energy, and foster a healthier environment in the face of urbanization and industrialization challenges.
