Waste in this instance defines any combustible, non-hazardous material resulting from the output of household and industrial processes. This waste material ranges from construction waste to biosolids from sewage and has multiple chemical and physical properties which may require different technologies. DP offers several types of combustion and gasification technologies that provide the best solution.
Different methods of incineration are available for MSW and RDF fuel types. Many technologies exist but proper handling and combustion is critical to optimising energy output, whilst the control of flue gas emissions helps to ensure environmental credentials. In particular, untreated MSW which is subject to improper incineration and emissions control is very environmentally damaging.
The variety and differences in MSW and RDF composition and thermal degradation behaviour means that modelling, design and operation of thermal conversion systems requires expertise and experience. The formation and composition of the fly ash and emissions are a direct result of the input feedstock and must be properly understood to determine the correct process for conversion. DP’s technologies are proven for RDF feedstocks, and DP’s experienced experts can determine the most efficient, economically and environmentally viable methods and technologies for conversion.
