Kushiro Wide-Area Federation waste-to-energy plant refurbishment, Japan
Name of the Project
Kushiro wide-area federation waste-to-energy (WtE) plant refurbishment.
Location
Takayama, in Kushiro, Japan.
Project Owner/s
Kushiro Wide-Area Federation.
Project Description
The Kushiro wide-area federation WtE facility comprises two lines of fluidised bed-type gasification and ash-melting furnace and related equipment, each with capacity of 120 t/d. It has an electricity generating capacity of 4.6 MW.
The refurbishment involves the repair and improvement of core equipment at the WtE, which entails the renewal of superannuated key components of the facility, including the waste-receiving and feeding equipment, gasification and ash-melting furnace, waste heat boiler and flue gas treatment system.
The renovation will introduce high-efficiency motors and invertors to increase energy efficiency, as well as hybrid bag filters with dioxin decomposition functionality, and a low-temperature catalyst for the denitrification equipment to increase the heat recovery rate.
These measures will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by an estimated 15% a year.
