Abstract;This paper introduces the situation of waste power generation centering round melting technology for waste gasification. New construction of final disposal spaces has become difficult in spite of continuous generation of wate. Generation of dioxines with incineration is also problem. For waste power generation, such technologies as improvement of steam conditions, development of materials, combination with a gas turbine, solidification fuel, etc. have been promoted. To improve efficiency and environmental capability, the engineers have developed melting technology for waste gasification that conducts thermal decomposition of waste. Waste gas conversion power generation which is exellent in efficiency and environmental capability in spite of small scale is now considered.
