Perspectives on Intelligent Optimized Control of Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Process under Dual Carbon Target
Municipal solid waste incineration(MSWI)provides an effective and promising approach for managing municipal solid waste(MSW)due to the fact that it can reduce waste volume and recover energy.MSWI has become an important support for the ecological civilization construction and dual carbon target.The MSWI process involves various physical and chemical reactions,with complex mechanisms and unclear evolution rules.Furthermore,the MSW in China is with high variability in composition and characteristics,making it difficult to achieve the intelligent optimized control.In consequence,there is a series of barriers in the development of MSWI industry,including the incomplete combustion of MSW,the excessive emissions of flue gas pollutants,the low energy efficiency,and the high operating cost.In this regard,after analyzing the challenges faced by realizing the optimized control of MSWI processes,this paper reviews the development status in both theory and application.Finally,the key scientific problems are issued and the potential research directions are prospected.
