In Nowy Dwór pod Chojnicami, the first container waste gas system was created in Poland designed and launched by the employees of IMP PAN. The authors of this installation are the team of D. Kardaś, J. Kluska, Ł. Heda, P. Kazimierski and T. Turzyński. Within a very short period of time – less than a year – a pilot set of devices with a capacity of about 2 tonnes of waste/day was designed, built and launched.
Container waste gasification system - perspectives for waste use
The completely original waste gasification installation consists of a hermetic tank, fuel feed system, gas reactor and combustion chamber. Its task is to turn waste into syngas, a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, which will in the future fuel the electricity generator, and is now a source of heat. The combustion chamber meets the requirements of the equipment for thermal conversion of waste by maintaining a stable and very high temperature.
The installation of waste gasification is the result of the project entitled “Autothermal gravitational reactor of municipal waste gasification” worth PLN 456 thousand, co-financed by WFOŚiGW in Gdańsk with PLN 310 thousand. The project was carried out in cooperation with IMP PAN, ZZO in Nowy Dworze and Eco – Construction. Good interaction between such different actors has led to the rapid achievement of high technological maturity of the installation. Its further development will enable the mass production of the device, which will translate into environmentally safe treatment of waste into heat and then the production of electricity from garbage.
