A case study combines bibliometric analysis, techno-economic assessment, and life cycle assessment to evaluate feasibility, environmental performance, and scalability. Results show that viability depends strongly on scale, financing, waste quality, and product mix, with combined energy and alternative fuel/material pathways performing best. HWtE achieves up to 3.5 t CO$_2$-eq savings per tonne of waste compared to landfilling.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Ekua Afrakoma Armoo", note="Enth{\"a}lt Zeitschriftenartikel", note="GutachterInnen: Satyanarayana Narra (University of Rostock) ; Francis Kemausuor (Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology) ; Nana Sarfo Agyemang Derkyi (University of Energy and Natural Resources)", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2025 Kumulative Dissertation", doi="10.18453/rosdok_id00005694", url="https://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00005694", url="https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00005694", language="English" }
