Abstract

In this chapter the feasibility of hydrogen production from organic waste (OW) is highlighted. Possible sources are the residue of municipal solid waste (MSW) sorting by mechanical/physical treatment, the OW separately collected from households and the waste produced along the entire food production chain.
