摘要： In a fossil fuel waste incineration or plasma gasification process, waste heat generated by combustion of waste is captured by a heat transfer fluid and conveyed to an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) for energy recovery. In the case of a fossil fuel-fired waste incineration system, the heat transfer fluid captures waste heat from a double-walled combustion chamber, a heat exchanger being used to cool the hot process exhaust (gas cooler). In the case of a plasma waste gasification system, the heat transfer fluid captures waste heat from a plasma torch, a gasification chamber and combustion chamber cooling jackets as well as any other high-temperature components requiring cooling, and then a heat exchanger used to cool the hot process exhaust (gas cooler). The heat exchanger may take on several configurations, including plate or shell and tube configurations.

摘要： A burner system for consuming waste fuel comprises a combustion unit having at least three combustion chambers arranged concentrically around a variable speed conveyor screw for directing the waste fuel along a fuel consumption path through the combustion chambers; an air chamber surrounding the combustion chambers to facilitate preheating combustion air delivered to the combustion chambers and to facilitate insulating the combustion chambers against thermal losses to the environment; a boiler in fluid communication with the combustion chambers for heating fluid to facilitate an energy conversion process; and an intelligent control system for controlling operation of the burner system. The control system controls operating parameters of the boiler including pressure, temperature and fluid level and activates an emergency stop alarm if any one of the operating parameters is outside a predetermined range of operating values.

摘要： Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for removing methane from a gas which contains the methane at such a low concentration as not to be rendered into a combustible range with whatever ratio of air mixed therewith. In order to ensure satisfactory methane removal performance even in the coexistence of sulfur compound and in order also to provide stable methane removal performance for an extended period of time without performance deterioration even when the methane concentration varies significantly, the gas is fed to a heat exchanger for preheating and methane is exposed to an oxidation catalyst which oxidizes the methane through contact therewith. Then, the resultant gas is fed again to the heat exchanger for heat recovery through heat exchange with un-reacted gas. Further, the flow rate of gas to be treated is varied, according to a concentration of the methane contained in this treated gas.

摘要： Systems and processes for processing sludge and other natural waste are provided. In one example, the sludge or natural waste may be dried into a powder using high-temperature gas to absorb moisture from the sludge, causing the high-temperature gas to become an at least partially saturated gas. The at least partially saturated gas may pass through a scrubber before being heated in an air-heater and used in the moisture absorption process. The heat for the air-heater may be provided by a burner operable to burn the dried powder obtained from the sludge. The heated gas may be used to pre-heat the saturated gas and may be used to dry additional sludge.

摘要： In a method for removing volatile organic components (VOC) from waste gases of a cement clinker kilns installation, in which the largely cooled waste gases are subjected to post-combustion, a post-combustion is carried out to an extent as to ensure a reduction of the concentration of the VOC below the admissible threshold values. The post-combustion is carried out for the production of vapour, whereby the production of vapour in the post-combustion is dimensioned for a gas volume to be post-combusted, ensuring that a partial quantity of the waste gas corresponding to the gas volume allows for the reduction of emitted VOC per unit time in the waste gas below admissible concentration values by rarefaction and whereby this partial quantity is simultaneously dimensioned for the production of a amount of vapour sufficient for the economical operation of a given steam turbine. The device for carrying out said method is characterized in that a branch line is connected to the waste gas line of the cement clinker kiln installation, between the pre-calciner and the waste gas suction fan, to which branch line a combustion chamber for a heat exchanger for the production of vapour and a steam turbine are connected. The invention also relates to a device for carrying out said method, characterised in that a branch line is connected to the waste gas line of the clinker installation, between a preheater and the waste gas suction fan, a combustion chamber for a heat exchanger for producing water vapour and a steam turbine being connected to said branch line.
