The WOIMAline® powertrain is highly automated and can, under normal conditions, operate unsupervised, provided that the waste fuel feed system operates automatically as well. On the auxiliary and common equipment side there is more room for different approaches. E.g. the ash extraction systems, chemical feed system and process water purification system can be designed for automatic or manual operation. This choice has no effect on the operating efficiency or emissions of the plant.
The CAPEX/OPEX substitution is particularly relevant at the waste pre-sorting plant, which is normally included in our delivery scope.
The waste segregation can operate completely manually, totally automatically or something in-between. The decision on the operating methodology is typically based on the local cost and availability of labor, customer’s willingness to invest and availability of funds and/or presence of operating and maintenance know-how.
Benefits of CAPEX/OPEX substitution
- Allows the customer more flexibility in funding the operations
- Introduces potential savings to the initial investment
- Creates more local job and training opportunities
- Enables the fine-tuning of support processes based on local needs
- Supports the logistics solutions available locally
