Popis: Issues and problems in waste management and renewable energy are often linked to development and industrialization. Their implication to people and the environment remain as global issue, particularly in developing countries like Malaysia. This study aims to look into the potential of value and wealth creation by transforming sewage sludge into new source of renewable energy. This study is using qualitative measures. The finding from this qualitative study reveals that, there is a potentiality of value and wealth creation by transforming sewage sludge into energy.
