Handling and Co-firing of Shredded Municipal Refuse and Coal in a Spreader-stoker Boiler*
A system for handling up to 120 tons/day of municipal refuse has been developed for co-firing with coal in a spreader-stoker boiler at the Colum bus, Ohio, Municipal Electric Plant. This system is unique in that the refuse has undergone only shred ding to 90 percent minus 4 in. (10 cm) and magnetic separation of ferrous material. The refuse-handling system comprises: (1) a push-pit with a hyd...
متن کاملPotential for energy recovery from municipal plastic wastes generated in Nigeria
Management of municipal solid wastes (MSW) in most developed societies now involves the use of thermo-chemical conversion methods. This leads to energy and material recovery while also protecting the environment. However, till date most of the wastes generated in Nigeria (including plastic wastes) are either land-filled or openly burnt. These methods are not sustainable and environmentally non-...

متن کاملConceptual design of a super-critical CO2 brayton cycle based on stack waste heat recovery for shazand power plant in Iran
Conceptual design of a waste heat recovery cycle is carried out in attempt to enhance the thermal efficiency of a steam power plant. In the recovery system, super-critical an CO2 is employed as the working fluid operating in a Brayton cycle. Low grade heat rejected by the flue gases through the stack is used as the primary heat source, while a secondary heat exchanger utilizes th...
