KeelWit has commenced a study of the entire process of collection, waste handling, separation and final energy generation at Municipal Solid Waste Facility, given that the industry has a major component of thermal energy in its process.
Recycling processes involve high temperatures and a complex heat recovery system, ash management and combustion control, due to the heterogeneous nature of municipal solid waste.
Any process in which high temperatures are reached and large volumes of materials are involved is usually susceptible to energy consumption improvements, better use of residual heat, performance enhancements and a new set point definition of its KPIs. These improvements can be achieved by changes in production volumes (downwards or upwards) that, over the years, have displaced actual operating conditions from initial set points.
All ovens, Heat Recovery System Generators, turbines, absorbers, filters, catalytic tanks and chimneys are a perfect environment for applying the KeelWit Energy Methodology of Optimization (KEEMO).
