Conclusion
In North America (NA) and Europe (EU), intense waste upcycling activities can be witnessed presently. The movements are
mainly initiated by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and European Commission. Waste upcycling activities in
Asian countries have just started picking up and the pace is expected to match the NA and EU regions by 2018.
Heavy funding and incentives are provided for waste upcycling technology development and implementation in the NA and EU
regions by government authorities.

regions by government authorities.
Waste-to-energy technologies show immense potential to address the global energy depletion problem while ensuring a
sustainable future.
It is expected that by 2018 waste upcycling technologies will be adopted at mass-scale globally.
