Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore the possibility of applying a new technology, vacuum heating technology, to waste-to-energy and resources, and to explore the completeness and feasibility of its supply chain system. First, we'll take a closer look at the implications of vacuum heating technology and its past experience. Second, we will explore ways to convert waste into energy and resources, with a focus on the potential of this technology for sustainable development. Taking Taiwan as a case study, the results of this study show that the vacuum thermal decomposition system can be successfully applied to the recycling and reuse process of agricultural waste, and then generate a generator built into the system, and use the thermal structure to form the final production process. This not only results in the generation of four high-value goods, but also significantly increases the value of the entire system. From a sustainability perspective, such systems have the potential to have a positive impact and can play a positive role in promoting clean energy and resource recycling. However, in the process of promotion, there are still some challenges in supply chain management and the promotion of raw material markets. Successful promotion relies on the efforts of the operator, including
active participation in the establishment and promotion of the supply chain, to ensure the viability and sustainability of the system. This study provides insight into the potential of vacuum heating technology in the field of waste treatment and energy recovery and provides a preliminary discussion of the feasibility study.
