Latest Developments
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Environmental & Chemical Engineering (MHIEC) has received an order from Sagamihara City to refurbish the core components of the Kita waste-to-energy plant. The order covers the replacement and upgrading of superannuated components, including equipment for refuse feeding, incineration, combustion gas cooling, flue gas treatment, ventilation, ash handling and water supply, as well as electrical and other instrumentation.
Energy efficiency will be enhanced through the application of MHIEC’s proprietary New Combustion Control System, which contributes to stable combustion, as well as more efficient ventilation equipment and high-efficiency motors and inverters. In addition, carbon dioxide emissions will be reduced by an estimated 10% a year by increasing the output of the steam turbine to 2 625 kW.
The order is valued at ¥6.3-billion.
