Development of a thermochemical data driven process control philosophy for application in industrial combustion of non-recyclable waste KU Leuven
Waste-to-energy (WtE) is a technique to reduce the volume of collected waste. By burning waste, energy is recovered through steam production, which in turn is used to produce electricity or as a heat source. Thus, the goal is to achieve the most stable steam production possible during the operation of the WtE. The combustion of waste releases gases, which can cause corrosion in the plant and consequently incur large costs. It is important to ...
