The wasteWOIMA® WtE power plant uses circulation gas and advanced automation with several measuring points and methods to ensure that the incineration on the grate takes place at exactly the optimal temperature. Combined with optimal combustion and post-combustion chamber design, controlled air feed, high-quality thermal insulation / cooling and refractory / Inconel protection leads to extremely low losses on ignition (LOI), i.e. the unburnt carbon content in t...
The Waste Framework Directive (WFD) hierarchy prioritises waste prevention followed by preparing for reuse, recycling, recovery and finally, least favourably, disposal.
WFD Article 3 makes the following definitions:
Recovery means any operation the principal result of which is waste serving a useful purpose by replacing other materials
Disposal means any operation which is not recovery
A Municipal Solid Waste Inci...
The combined continuous savings during the operation and maintenance of the wasteWOIMA® plant amount up to 17,000,000 €.
The savings are mainly a result of
Highly automated plant operations & maintenance work
Optimized equipment in the WOIMAdesign
Waste management and power generation decentralization potential

The wasteWOIMA® WtE plant has been designed for a decentralized waste management and power generation program, where local waste is incinerated to energy locally for local people and businesses. Naturally, the decentralized business model only works for cities/areas large enough to generate enough waste for one large or at least five small-scale wasteWOIMA® plants.
The wasteWOIMA® plant saves on ...
Waste fuels are a quite heterogenous fuel group typically consisting of municipal, industrial and construction/demolition wastes. Their calorific value and moisture content can vary significantly complicating the incineration process and sometimes preventing full combustion.
