To advance the evaluation of Carbon dioxide Capture, Utilization and Storage decarbonisation effectiveness in waste incineration facilities suitable for Japan, this study investigated the case studies of the cooperation between waste incineration facilities and CCUS in Japan to understand the current status of implementation and to evaluate the decarbonisation effectiveness of waste incineration facilities and CCUS projects. The results show that achieving the carbon neutrality goal for introducing CCUS in 300 t/D MSW incineration facilities is difficult. There are differences in emission reduction benefits depending on the type of CCU technology, with CCU-methanol being the most effective technology for CO2 emission reduction for achieving carbon neutrality in the 2050 forecast.
