Waste treatment, which is essential for maintaining sustainability, is the responsibility of local governments in Japan, and in most cases, it is inefficient as it is only responsible for disposing of waste. Therefore, as the ideal waste treatment facility for decarbonization in 2050, I recommend the construction of large waste to energy facilities concentrated in industrial complexes. This can significantly improve overall efficiency and create a sustainable circular economy. Furthermore, by having the national government take the lead in operating the project, it was possible to break various current constraints.
