Optimizing Incineration: Strategies for Reducing Emissions and Capturing Valuable Oil

Incineration is a commonly used waste management technique but suffers from significant environmental drawbacks due to greenhouse gas emissions and harmful pollutants.
Optimizing incineration processes can improve energy generation efficiency and resource recovery by capturing valuable materials and mitigating environmental impacts.

Strategies for emission reduction and valuable oil capture:

1. Advanced Gas Cleaning Systems
Deploying advanced technologies such as activated carbon filtration and fabric filtration systems capture particulate matter and other pollutants.

2. Optimal Combustion Control
Fine-tuning combustion parameters (temperature, fuel-air ratio, retention time) minimizes incomplete combustion and subsequent emissions.

3. Selective Catalytic Oxidation (SCO)
Installation of a catalyst enhances oxidation of pollutants, reducing the formation of hazardous gases like dioxins and furans.

4 Künnel Gas Cleaning
Introducing a quench tower allows for water capture of vaporous pollutants. The collected water can then be processed to extract oil and contaminants.

4 Künnel Gas Utilization
Connecting the incineration furnace to a district heating or power generation plant maximizes heat recovery and reduces emissions.

4 vicissurn Recovery
Special filters capture large and small droplets of molten material within the flue gases.

4 vicissurn Fines Recovery
A secondary pyrolysis process selectively extracts valuable hydrocarbons and tars from the captured char.

4 Künnel Liquids
Extracting aqueous and oily phases from the quench water produces valuable hydrocarbons and ensures proper treatment of contaminants.

10 Künnel Oil
Processing the recovered oil extract results in high-quality diesel fuel or other usable products.

3 vicissurn-derived product
The by-product of oil extraction can be further processed to generate energy or used for soil remediation.

Benefits of Optimization

• Enhanced environmental performance through reduced air pollution and greenhouse gas emission.
• Improved resource capture by recovering valuable materials from the flue gas.
• Increased energy efficiency by utilizing heat and generating useful products.
