  1. PLASMA-TECHNOLOGY efficient and ecological energy production through waste recycling

  2. Agenda • the main sources of hazardous waste in Europe • industry participation for hazardous waste in Germany • presentsituation of hazardous waste and especially hazardous wastes • regionswiththehighestproductionofhazardouswaste • characteristicsofPlasma-Procedure • comparison to current waste gasification systems • recyclablehazardwasteclassification • economical, ecological and technicalrelevance • maincustomers / industries • scalabilityandgrowthpotential • expansionprospects • operatingefficiency • financing plan under different scenarios

  3. the main sources of hazardous waste in Europe hazardouswasteisgeneratedby… toxic materials industrialestablishments medicine and public health services militaryindustrialestablishment municipalplants radioactivematerials

  4. industry participation for hazardous waste in Germany Quelle: statistisches Bundesamt

  5. presentsituation of hazardous waste and especially hazardous wastes • in 2013 more than 24 million tonnes of hazardous waste were produced • in 2004 - 2013 • increaseofespecially hazardouswaste (all sectors) byapprox. 22% • total capacityofwasteincreasesbyapprox. 2,5% • become as " Dump of Europe " by importing waste (approx. 3 million tons / year) from neighboring countries

  6. presentsituation of hazardous waste and especially hazardous wastes • elaboratewasteseparation is required for • backfillingofminingoperation • thermalprocessingofwastedisposal • combustionplantswithenergeticrecycling • builtoflandfill • approx.50% canbedepollutedorprocessed, restofwastewill land on landfills or will be buried • the largest regions where hazardous wastes are generated are NRW, BY, BW

  7. regionswiththehighestproductionofhazardouswaste Quelle: statistisches Bundesamt

  8. characteristicsofPlasma-Procedure • purification valueofexhaust gas isupto 99,97% • <5% leftovers of not hazardoussolidsforfurtherutilization • destroysandprevents the molecular bonds of hazardous waste and decomposes them into atomic particles • decomposes solids, liquids and gases simultaneously • current technology can’t realize same and need to be sorted • secondary products: heat, electricity, steam, building materials, synthesis gas and many more

  9. characteristicsofPlasma-Procedure • reduces environmental pollution e.g. combustion storage and emission value through exhaust gases etc. • compliance and undercut EU-restrictions • environmental friendly and smooth elimination of all toxic, solid, liquid and gaseous materials (any aggregate state) • high flexibility: ready for operation within approx. 15 minutes

  10. comparison to current waste gasification systems

  11. recyclablehazardwasteclassification • heavymetal and each metal form connection e.g. alpha arsenic, cadmium, copper, lead, mercury etc. • waste from human or animal health care and/or related research • laboratory chemicals which consist or contain especially hazardous materials including alloys of laboratory chemicals (also photochemistry) • solid and liquid pesticides • waste of liquid fuels 

  12. recyclablehazardwasteclassification • wastes from the manufacture, formulation, supply and use (MFSU) • acids, e.g. phosphoric, sulphurous or hydrochloric acid • alkalinefrom inorganic chemical processes • coatings (paints, varnishes and vitreous enamels), adhesives, sealants and printing inks, which containing organic solvents or other dangerous substances • wastecontainingasbestos(constructionmaterials, electrolysis, etc.) • construction and demolition wastes containing mercury and waste from gas purification • > 40.000 waste materials marked as hazardousand imperatively requires a special disposal or landfilling

  13. recyclablehazardwasteclassification

  14. dangeroussubstancesintheoverview

  15. economicrelevance • hazardouswaste = most profitable sectorofwasteeconomy • waste management business of hazardous waste which are classified for hazard waste classes are considered as “gold mines” • saving of costs due to omitted and elaborated purification of waste • revenues by importing hazardous waste from neighboring countries • demand-oriented and flexible waste recycling

  16. ecologicalrelevance • compliance with EU-Restrictions of waste economic sector • no or very limited excretion of noxious fumes into the atmosphere in compare to current procedure • municipal waste, hazardous and especially hazardous waste can be converted completely into environmental friendly clean energy and unpolluted remaining • degeneration and even up to decommissioning of landfills and mining sites • facilitation of disposal of waste which includes hazardous and especially hazardous materials of the mentioned industries • exclusive water-, alkali- and acid resistant as leftovers which can be recycled into construction materials

  17. ecologicalrelevance EU-restrictions in comparison

  18. technologicalrelevance • plasma-gasificationtechnology is the leading innovative technology of waste recycling technology worldwide • compressed technology on smallest space in compare to current plant size in use

  19. technologicalrelevance • plasma is considered the 4th state of matter which uses recognized worldwide technology for the processing of a wide range of non-recyclable waste for energy in synthesis gas with high hydrogen content • > 25 years experience in research and practice • already realized plant constructions in 14 countries

  20. maincustomers/ industries Main consumers of services of the factory will be the following enterprises: • machine building plants • shipbuilding yards • large health care institutions that generate medical wastes which are subject to the obligatory destruction; • large enterprises that generate hazardous wastes (pharmaceutical, chemicals and petrochemical industry) • toxic ash that is generated in the course of the combustion of solid domestic waste, and at the electric-power generation by thermal stations

  21. maincustomers / industries • waste burial and mining sites in use, where the necessity of the soil remediation exists on pieces of ground where hazardous waste are buried, and/or pieces of ground where no possibilities exist for burial of incoming hazardous waste (in accordance with the EU-register of hazardous wastes) • enterprisesthat generate liquid and gaseous toxic waste

  22. maincustomers / industries

  23. scalabilityandgrowth potential • hazardouswastemanagementontheEuropeanmarketamountsapprox. 30 billion €/yearwithrisingtendency • the total cost of the investment program is 2.4 billion €including • the building of approx. 30 plasma-gasification technology plants for the disposal of hazardous and especially hazardous waste classification • manufacture of secondary products (heat, electricity, steam, construction material, synthesis gas and lots more) • electricity generation capacity from non-fossil raw material source: • 120 MWhelectricalenergy is produced by the processing of 120 t/h of hazardous waste in the Plasma-gasification plant, depending on the composition of waste

  24. expansionprospects Wasterecycling2.0Formation as a new service sector and waste disposal company • possibility of a on-site service due to the mobile disposal of gaseous and liquid toxic waste • one 40’Container can be processed straight at the waste producers place • application for cleaning of exhaust gases e.g. on waste-fueled power station, slag combustor and coal-burning power plant • extremely high potential savings for the customer due to lower maintenance intervals of filter system required by the provided plasma exhaust gas cleaning • longer lifetime of the filter through decreased exhaust gas. Thus reduces or omits changes and removal of filter itself or even the filter-ash removal

  25. operatingefficiency

  26. financing plan baseline scenario

  27. financing plan pessimistic scenario

  28. financing plan optimistic scenario

  29. summary • hazardous waste disposal without problematic residuals • energy generation in an alternative and ecological way • technological achievement • positive future prospects • profitable investment with extension options • possibility of cooperation with various industries
