ACT technologies are designed to recover energy in the form of electricity, heat, gas or fuels, principally using the processes of [[Pyrolysis]] or [[Gasification]]. The primary difference between ACT treatments and traditional combustion is the control of the environment in which the thermal processes take place; ACT processes create an oxygen-limited environment where the heating takes place<ref> Syngas-products.com, 2019.
