By means of the applied Technology for the first time ever, all kinds of waste material, including problematic hazardous waste, can be processed in an environmentally friendly and sustainable manner. The secret of the proven success lies in the coactions of several processing technologies for energy recovery and waste disposal. In comparison to existing incineration plants the energy efficiency of EPU Technology is significantly higher. The EPU Plant produces high energy fuel, electricity, heat and cold. The Technology requires only a small quantity of external energy; nearly all processes are fed by energy produced during the process. No residues remain for land filling. Ground water, air and soil are protected. The thereby applied carburettor is based on the reliable cupola-furnace technology with a conveying-and feed technology specializing in the gasification of waste materials. All components of the plant have been separately used over several years and all testing procedures have been successful.
Independent third-party reports, e.g. T?V, are available.
Processable waste:
- Municipal waste
- Hazardous waste
- Sewage sludge of wastewater treatment plants
- Agricultural waste (biomass)
- Rubber waste
- Chemical waste
- Waste of electronic industry
- Plastics
- etc.
Environmental Protection
The Technology for waste disposal and energy supply with production of fuel, electricity, heat and cold fulfils the requirements of integrated prevention and reduction of environmental pollution of the German ?TA Luft 2002?. All of exhaust air and wastewater is completely purified by the integrated exhaust air-and wastewater modules and thus can be released back to the environment. Produced wastewater reaches processing water quality. In comparison to existing incineration plants no residues with detachable pollutant components remain -even during the treatment of hazardous waste. This is an entirely novel aspect. Thus common problems such as land filling of toxic residues and resultant unpleasant odour for residents do not occur. Moreover, the process works with slight low pressure, thus preventing unpleasant odour even during the actual process. The process releases back to the environment a far lower amount of harmful substances than permitted. The heart of the technology is the patented and very effective pollution control equipment which allows cleaning more than 500,000 different chemical molecules and compounds, such as dioxins, furans or mercury compounds as well as bacteria and viruses by 90 to 99% in one single cleaning process. These results have never been achieved before by any other existing technology
