Emission of toxin and generation of ash is related only with incinerators. Draining of liquid and requirement of substantial amount of land is related with landfills only. Generation of energy and release of greenhouse gases is related with both landfills as well as incinerators.
<h3>What are incinerators?</h3>
An incinerator is a waste-burning furnace. Pollution control equipment, such as flue gas cleaning, is included in modern incinerators.
Incinerator plant designs include moving grate, fixed grate, rotary kiln, and fluidized bed.
The descriptions can be as follows:
- Generation of energy - Both, landfills produce methane gas, which is used to generate electricity, and incinerators produce heat energy, which is also used to generate energy.
- Emission of toxins through combustion - Incinerators emit dioxins, a hazardous chemical.
- Draining of liquids into the ground - this is a common problem at all landfill sites.
- Emission of greenhouse gases - Both landfills and incinerators emit methane and other carbon gases.
- Necessitates a significant amount of land - landfill site, necessitates a large amount of land to dump city waste
- Production of ash - Incinerator only.
Thus, these can be the description applies to landfills, incinerators, or both.
