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.

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.

A waste-to-energy power plant can be a significant source of wastewater, if not designed properly. The wasteWOIMA® WtE plant is a dry plant that only uses dry or semi-dry systems and produces no wastewater. The plant does use water in cooling the bottom ash in the slag pool beneath the grate and in the flue gas treatment (FGT) system, but this water evaporates prior to becoming wastewater.
The wastewater treatment savings in the wasteWOIM...
Water is an extremely precious, and often scarce or hard-to-reach, resource in many parts of the world. The WOIMAdesign ensures that as little water as possible is wasted in the wasteWOIMA® WtE plant mainly thanks to the closed steam-water –cycle. Unfortunately, it is still inevitable that some water (~500-600 l/h) is required to replenish the plant due to evaporation and water quality degradation.
All the water in the wasteWOI...
The WOIMAdesign caters for the needs of different types of customers when it comes to the number of personnel required to run the wasteWOIMA® WtE plant. Typically, customers in developed countries emphasize the use of more automation due to the high cost of personnel, while projects in emerging countries concentrate on employing more people.
There are several points, where automation can save significant personnel resources and improve op...
The wasteWOIMA® WtE plant is based on a standardized WOIMAdesign which is used for all current and future WOIMA customers.
Any improvements to the WOIMAdesign will automatically improve the competitiveness of all future plant deliveries through
Shorter overall project delivery time
Better-performing plant equipment
More cost-efficient logistics
Faster construction, erecti...
WOIMAdesign incorporates the fact that each WtE plant will require a major overhaul either during its design lifespan or to prolong the originally intended lifespan.
The modular structure of the wasteWOIMA® plant will facilitate simple and fast replacement of worn-out modules during corrective maintenance or prevent unexpected plant unavailability with preventive maintenance.
The replacement modules are also built in similar controlled worksho...
Prefabrication of the wasteWOIMA® plant modules means less on-site building, erection, and installation work in potentially challenging conditions.
The wasteWOIMA® plant modules are built in a controlled workshop environment, which leads to
High quality
Easy manufacturing scheduling
Reliable cost management
