Municipal Waste as a Viable Fuel Dr Robert Eden Technical Director PT NOEI
CONTENTS OF PRESENTATION • GALFAD - An Integrated Waste Disposal Concept • Anaerobic digestion • Landfill gas utilisation • Thermal waste treatment
GALFAD GALFAD An integrated waste management system
GALFAD GA – Gasification (pyrolysis) LF – LandFill gas AD – Anaerobic digestion
GALFAD • Separation • Wet- waste to anaerobic digestion • Dry-waste to pyrolysis • Bio-solids to compost • Biogas and syngas to electricity
ANAEROBIC DIGESTION Anaerobic digestion is a biological process for converting organic materials into a combustible gas It normally takes place in a wet environment and in the absence of any air Organic materials are broken down to produce methane and carbon dioxide
LANDFILL GAS UTILISATION Puchong LFS -Malaysia
Landfill gas power station Xing Feng LFS - China
PROCESS DESCRIPTION Feed Preparation Pyrolysis Gasification Oxidation Energy Recovery Flue Gas Clean Up materials recovery Boiler Sodium Bicarbonate WASTE cyclonic separator particulates >10 microns bypass damper Bag Filter compacting air lock Condenser Turbine Ammonia 1250°C DeNOx Catalyst Electricity Heat Stack air bottom ash steam Fuel (warm-up only) air carbon recycling
General layout of an MT2 unit Waste Heat Boiler Waste Feed Pyrolysis Tubes Emissions Abatement Thermal Oxidation Pyrolysis & Gasification
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Typical results for clinical, pharmaceutical and other wastes
clinical waste dried sludge shredded tyres commercial waste refuse derived fuel (RDF) municipal solid waste (MSW) ACCEPTABLE WASTE TYPES
Summary • Every site is unique • Of critical importance is the specific waste composition and in particular the moisture content • 100 tonnes per day of feedstock (typically 175 tonnes per day of waste) will generate 2.5 MW of power
