The implementation of waste-to-energy innovations is a shining example of advancement in sustainable tourism, characterized by the intertwining of environmental consciousness and hospitality. Through this transformational approach, businesses not only reduce their adverse effects on the environment by utilizing the potential of waste materials to generate energy, but they also open the way for a more sustainable and efficient operation model. Throughout history, managing this garbage has presented considerable issues, resulting in damage to the environment and the depletion of resources in several essential tourist destinations. These innovations seek to remedy this challenge. Application of Waste-to-Energy Innovations in Tourism offers a complete overview of waste-to-energy technologies that can be used in tourism facilities. It further assesses the environmental, economic, and social repercussions of implementing these technologies within the context of tourism facilities. Covering topics such as circular waste management, sustainability, and tourist experiences, this book is an excellent resource for industry professionals, policymakers, researchers, academicians, investors, non-governmental organizations, graduate and postgraduate students, educators, and more.
