Introduction to Energy-Integrated Local Plastic Treatment(EILPT) Applications
This blog post will explain, with diagrams, the most basic method for operating an Energy-Integrated Local Plastic Treatment(EILPT)t facility using the incinerator introduced in this blog. However, this guide was written with consideration given the limited capacity of the incinerator being introduced.
First, we will introduce an EILPT facility dedicated to SPCW thermal treatment,
with an integrated steam power generation system rated at up to 60 kWe (gross, conceptual).
The EILPT facility is equipped with all waste input devices and dust collection facilities after the incinerator.
Required chamber specifications
The proposed EILPT configuration consists of three AFC chambers, each with an internal diameter of 1,500 mm or larger.
Two chambers operate in parallel, while the third serves as a standby unit or undergoes scheduled maintenance.
The chambers are rotated to maintain treatment capacity and minimize operational downtime.
This 2+1 configuration allows SPCW thermal treatment to continue when one chamber is taken offline for inspection or maintenance,
provided the shared supporting systems remain operational.
Overall concept of EILPT using steam boiler and generator
Example Configuration
- 3 × AFC Modules
- 2 Operating + 1 Standby / Maintenance
-
Per Operating Module Residual SPCW: approx. 150–200 kg/h Heat recovery: Steam boiler Steam turbine generators: 2 × 15 kW-class Gross generation: up to approx. 30 kW
- Combined Operation Plastic treatment: approx. 300–400 kg/h Gross generation: up to approx. 60 kW 16-hour operation: up to approx. 960 kWh/day
Modular by Design
-
Multiple smaller units allow treatment to continue while one unit is offline for inspection or maintenance.
-
Electricity is recovered as a useful by-product of local plastic treatment — not as the reason to consume plastic.
