The technology offered is based on a three-step process:

Pyrolysis, gasification, and combustion of solid waste and biomass.

The waste fuel is automatically batch-fed into the closed fuel silo [FIREPROOF SILO] through hydraulically- operated gates [FUEL INPUT], and gasification occurs at the bottom of the silo. By accurate and automatic control of the air supply to the primary chamber, the required gasification is achieved.

Completely burned out ash and slag is discharged through the bottom [ASH OUTLET].

The low-calorie gas produced in the primary chamber flows into the secondary chamber [SECONDARY CHAMBER], where secondary air is added to support the complete combustion of the low-calorific flue gas. The temperature in the secondary chamber is set to 850-1100º C before the gas flows into the cyclone-shaped tertiary chamber [CYCLONE]. Remaining unburned fractions are then completely burned out, and any remaining heavy particles in the fly-ash are separated.

Leaving the tertiary chamber, the hot flue gas is cooled down in the flue gas-boiler, where either hot water or steam is generated [BOILER]. The thermal energy may be used directly for heating purposes, or to generate electricity through steam turbines.

Before the flue gas is discharged through the chimney [CHIMNEY], it passes through a filter system assuring low emission values [BAG FILTER, ABSORBENT HOPPER, REACTOR].

The test results satisfy air emissions and other requirements suggested in the European Union
Directive 2000/76/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of December 4, 2000 on the incineration of waste.
