On September 12-14, 2023, the Crocus Expo exhibition complex, Moscow (65-66 km of the Moscow Ring Road) will host the main professional event of the year - the international exhibition WasteTech/ВэйстТэк. You will find us at Pavilion 2 Hall 5 Stand 5K2. Here is the link to the exhibition website: https://waste-tech.ru/. You can get a free visitor badge here: https://waste-tech.ru/visit#rec463465156.

Evolution or involution?

With an increase in the standard of living, the level of motorization, industrialization, every year the volumes of municipal and industrial waste only increase, while the method of disposal remains unchanged – landfill disposal.

Waste is an acute environmental and economic problem in the world.

At the moment, the situation with landfills in megacities has reached a critical level. Landfills are overflowing and the need to create waste processing complexes is even more acute.

Currently, more than a dozen different technologies for processing carbon-containing waste have been successfully implemented in the world practice. The most widespread among them are thermal methods, which include:

Incineration at landfills
Low-temperature pyrolysis
Plasma waste recycling

This new technology of thermal destruction surpasses existing analogues in the quality of products obtained after processing, as well as in environmental parameters.

During the process of thermal destruction of the same mass of waste after gas separation, the volume of released harmful gases for subsequent processing is only 30-50 m3, which is 300 times less than the volume of flue gases after waste incineration.

As a result of thermal destruction, we obtain a high-calorie synthetic gas that can be used for the production of electric energy, thermal energy, synthetic liquid fuel, esters, alcohols, propane-butane fraction gas.

The ash residue obtained as a result of thermal destruction with a high content of metal oxides can be used in metallurgy, at asphalt concrete plants, as a sorbent and filler of plastics.

Thus, the method not only completely solves environmental problems, but is absolutely cost-effective.

The method may be of interest primarily to enterprises experiencing problems with the disposal of carbon-containing waste generated during production: Oil refineries (oil sludge), fly ash, woodworking, pulp and paper mills (lignin) livestock complexes and poultry farms, crop production.
