Market Situation
Germany's first commercial-scale Thermal Waste Recycling plant with a yearly capacity of 100 000 tons is under construction in F rth near Nuremberg Germany . Commissioning of the plant is scheduled for early 1997. Positive decisions to go for the TWR-processes have been taken by other authorities in Germany and in Switzerland. Licensind agreements have been concluded with Mitsui Engineering and Shipbuilding and with Takuma. Both of them are major Japanese companies in the waste sector.
Conclusion
The Thermal Waste Recycling technology utilizes Siemens' decades of experience in plant engineering and power plant industry. In more than ten years of growing experience the process and the key components have undergone testing to the point of commercial maturity under continuous operating conditions in two German demonstration plants. The stepwise technical development of this process is based on proven systems used in conventional power engineering and waste incineration technology. Due to a...
Ecological benefits as key for market success
In fact it is chiefly the ecological advantages which mark the difference between TWR and normal waste incinerators. From the ecological point of view the Thermal Waste Recycling technology is the most advanced process available on the market. With the innovative combination of conversion and high-temperature combustion refuse can be transferred into electricity, reusable secondary raw materials like ferrous metal and aluminum as well as inerts and granulated slag for construction industry....
Introduction
In our days we are looking back at a history of more than one century of thermal waste treatment in Europe. It was in the year 1875 when a British engineer - Alfred Fryer - constructed the world s first large scale waste incinerator in Leeds in England. Fryer s process used the energy contained in the waste for an exothermal reaction. No additional fuel was needed. The Senat of Hamburg Germany in 1889 decided to learn from the neighbours on the British island. The fast growing town was well...
