Applications

Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), including industrial waste and household waste etc, is the residual waste put into a black bin bag or wheelie bin. MSW contains a mixture of recyclable, organic, inorganic and biodegradable materials. Recyclable materials are recovered as many as possible before drying and shredding the remainder to make a Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) for the process. The energy from waste process, transforms the RDF into a clean hydrogen-rich synthesis gas (syngas), which can be combusted by engine for power generation.

It   is a typical case of WtE (Waste to Energy) project, sponsored by Government of South Korea. 

CHP System for generation of both electricity and hot water, comprehensive energy utilization, exporting electricity to Mains Grid at high subsidy price,   selling hot water for commercial use.
