Engaged as a solid waste management specialist we developed a long list of waste technology option profiles . This included technologies based on recycling and segregation, biological treatment, thermal treatment and final disposal. The relative merits of each was assessed in terms of how it met the specific criteria for the municipalities which emphasised a small footprint. Criteria including the suitability to the waste sources, technology track record and costs were also considered.
