NA WTEC14 Speaker Abstract: MARTIN Reverse-Acting Grate System - The Challenge of High Heating Value Fuels
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent years have seen significant increases in the average heating values of wastes in Central Europe. Essentially, this can be attributed to recycling measures, separate recovery of waste streams, and treatment and processing procedures in modified waste management concepts. As a result of the above and due to the increasingly frequent application of energy recovery procedures for commercial waste, the fuel input to waste to-energy plants combusting household waste has been significantly influenced. In response to the associated increased thermal load, water-cooled systems using various technologies were developed and used for air-cooled forward-acting grate systems.

Conversion Technologies - The Challenges for the MARTIN Reverse-Acting Grate System
Thermal treatment of waste differs significantly from the combustion of regular fuels due to the fluctuating and unpredictable composition of the fuel. It is therefore necessary to develop processes with safe process engineering technology that guarantee the treatment of waste in accordance with ecological and economic constraints in addition to complying with international legal requirements. ...
متن کاملModeling of Solid Waste Flow and Mixing on the Traveling Grate of a Waste-to- energy Combustion Chamber
Mixing of the highly non-homogeneous municipal solid wastes (MSW) on the traveling grate of mass-burn combustion chambers assists the combustion process in waste-to-energy (WTE) facilities. A matrix-based Markov chain model was developed to simulate particle flow and mixing as the solid waste particles travel over a reverse acting Martin grate. The model was used to project the pathway of a sol...

Flow, mixing, and, size segregation of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) particles on the traveling grate of a mass-burn waste-to-energy (WTE) combustion chamber is analyzed for understanding those parameters that control the combustion processes and for designing the chamber. In order to quantify these phenomena, a full-scale physical model of the reverse acting grate was built and used for investig...
متن کاملInvestigations on the Combustion of Various Waste Fractions inside a Grate Furnace
The influence of various waste mixtures on the combustion process in a grate furnace was investigated at the test plant TAMARA. Measurements were carried out inside the combustion chamber by monitoring temperatures and sampling gaseous combustion products and heavy metals. The data were verified by element and energy bal ances. The different fuel fractions influence the combustion process by p...

Mixing of the highly non-homogeneous municipal solid wastes (MSW) on the traveling grate of mass-bum combustion chambers assists the combustion process in waste-to-energy (wrE) facilities. A matrix-based Markov chain model was developed to simulate particle flow and mixing as the solid waste particles travel over a reverse acting Martin grate. The model was used to project the pathway of a soli...
