Original abstract

Emission limits become more and more crucial and this makes the monitoring of incineration processes an indisputable factor for meeting the related requirements. Monitoring of operation of an up to date municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerator with newly installed catalytic filtration system REMEDIA D/F for PCDD/F (dioxins and furans) destruction was performed. Later on it has been recognized a strong need for monitoring this operation to watch the decreasing catalyst activity (life-time of the filtration material ranges between five and six years). Specific algorithms have been created for data acquisition characterizing comparative relations between the incinerator and the filter operation. Analyzed data from monitoring of operation play an important role in the evaluation of remaining lifetime for filter bags. The special filtration material for catalytic filtration is rather expensive and for consequently it is important to evaluate how long it can be operated beyond achieving the guaranteed lifetime four years. The database obtained from monitoring can also be utilized for other operational applications of this highly efficient way of PCDD/F destruction. It can substantially contribute to creating an overall MSW incinerator monitoring system contributing for various improvements and optimisation of the operation as well.

Czech abstract

Tato zpráva se zabývá významem podrobného monitorování provozních záznamů spalovny na odpadní teplo. Původní záměr byl monitorování provozních dat k optimalizaci provozu nové spalovny po nainstalování technologie katalytické filtrace REMEDIA D/F, která požadovala určité provozní podmínky. Dále se však ukázalo, jak je zapotřebí sledovat provoz až do fáze poklesu katalytické aktivity (doba životnosti filtru je 5-6 let). K tomuto účelu byly vybudovány algoritmy sběru dat charakterizující relativní vazby provozu reálné spalovny na funkční veličiny provozu dioxinového filtru. Vyhodnocené záznamy z monitorování pracovních podmínek dioxinového filtru jsou rovněž významnou pomůckou pro provozovatele i dodavatele technologie k posouzení zbytkové životnosti filtračních hadic v době, kdy úhrnná pracovní doba filtračního materiálu bude překračovat garantovanou dobu životnosti, která pro daný případ činí 4 roky. Vzhledem k poměrně vysoké pořizovací ceně filtračního systému se každé prodloužení pracovní doby filtračních hadic projeví nezanedbatelným efektem v úspoře finančních prostředků pro obnovu filtračního materiálu. Tato databáze může být využita nejen pro další provozní aplikace tohoto vysoce účinného způsobu destrukce toxických organických látek, jejichž únik je dnes stále více sledován, ale i k vytvoření celkového provozního profilu spalovny.
