This paper mainly deals with viability of Waste to energy Incineration technology in Roorkee City, Uttarakhand by estimating the total municipal solid waste generated and evaluating the energy potential by using the incineration technology. Day to day increase in waste generation demands Renewable technology for solid waste management for an effective economic and social growth of the people. This paper focuses on technical feasibility only.
