Answer 2

Answer:

Incineration is a waste treatment process that involves the combustion (burning)  of organic substances contained in waste materials. ​

Incineration is often used in the production of electricity as it reduces the mass of waste up to 96 percent.​

Incineration is the process of burning biodegradable garbage.​

The exhaust gases from this process may be toxic, hence it is treated before being released into the environment. ​

Incineration of waste materials converts the waste into ash, flue gas and heat.​

People often burn leaves, weeds, grass, branches and other dried garden waste.​

Incineration is popular among smaller countries like Japan, whose scarcity of land make incineration a convenient way to dispose of waste.​
