Original abstract
Thermal processing of waste represents not only waste disposal including reducing its volume but also waste to energy (WTE) process. Most up to date municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerators are delivering WTE. Results of energy utilization analysis in one of the type of MSW incinerator are presented in this paper. The aim of the analysis was to identify the potential energy saving within the plant. Plant efficiency factor and Energy utilization rate are considered as the criteria used for assessment of plant performance from the view of energy utilization. Simulations based on industrial data acquired by monitoring system were carried out and obtained results are analyzed. It was found out that the potential energy savings are available in the area of low-potential heat. The possible improvements were proposed and consulted with the plant operators.
Czech abstract
Tepelné zpracování odpadů představuje ne len metodu jejich odstraňování, zahrnující redukci jejich objemu, ale také waste-to-energy (WTE) procesy. Většina ze současných moderních spaloven komunálního odpadu spadá právě do kategorie WTE. V tomto příspěvku jsou prezentovány výsledky analýzy využití energie v jedné ze spaloven tohoto typu. Cílem vykonané analýzy bylo identifikovat potenciální možnosti úspory energie v rámci spalovny. Jako kritéria na posouzení výkonnosti spalovny z hlediska využití energií byli použité: ukazovatel efektivnosti výroby energie a ukazovatel efektivity využití energie. V příspěvku se také nachází analýza výsledků simulací založených na údajích získaných z monitorovacího systému. Bylo zjištěno, že potenciální úspory energie by mohli být v oblasti nízkopotenciálného tepla. Návrhy možných zlepšení byli prokonzultovány s odborníky spalovně.
