  incineration of waste
• Reference Document on the Best Available
  Techniques for Waste Incineration (BREF WI),
  Draft March 2004

Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• Basis
• German Federal Immission Protection Law
  (Bundesimmissionsschutzgesetz BImSchG)

  Waste and similar Materials (17. BImSchV)

Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• Waste Management Policy in Hamburg
• in Germany the communities and the town councils
  are responsible for the waste management of
  private households
• all owners of properties are attached to the
  municipal solid waste collection and have to pay
  fees

Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• Waste Management Policy in Hamburg
• Hamburg is a city state without large amounts of
  unused areas for landfilling, therefore the
  administration decided already more than 100
  years ago to build up and operate the first waste
  incineration plant

5
Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• Waste Management Policy in Hamburg
• since 1999 100 of the municipal waste
  (households, business, trade companies) and
  hazardous waste is treated in waste incinerators
• no landfill any more in accordance with the
  German law (libility up from 2005)

  bulky waste, 126 000 t from business and trade
  companies, 18 900 t market and street cleaning
• waste for energy recovery in waste incinerators
  100 000 t

Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• Waste Data of Hamburg (2003)
• municipal solid waste per inhabitant and year
  (waste incineration) 244 kg/i yrthe
  value is slowly decreasing
• separate collected waste for recycling 248 kg/i
  yr

Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• Waste Data of Hamburg (2003)
• fee per inhabitant and year 130 /i yr 320 /t
  waste, about 40 needs the waste incineration,
  the other part is for collecting household waste
  and run some systems of separate waste-collecting
  (like paper, glass, hazardous waste....)

Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• installed waste incinerator capacity
• municipal waste 3 plants in Hamburg with 800
  000 t/yr, 1 plant outside for use with 180 000
  t/yr, 1 line in construction for burning
  biological materials, esp. wood
• hazardous waste 1 plant with 110 000 t/yr
• sewage sludge 1 plant with 78 000 t/yr

• MVR Müllverwertung Rugenberger Damm an example
  of modern, state-of-the-art technology of waste
  incineration
• capacity 320 000 t/yr

Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• Flue gas cleaning system, 4 stages SNCR system
  for reducing NOx in the boiler bag house filter
  with active carbon in the flue gaswet acid
  scrubber to reduce hydrochloric acidwet scrubber
  with lime slurry for reducing sulfur dioxide

Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• Flue gas cleaning system, 4 stages second bag
  house filter as a police filter with fresh active
  carbonresult very low emission values

• Energy productionthe plant can feed the local
  heating network or produce electricity, maximum
  output75 MWther 7 MWel or 29 MWel no

• Charge of operating and investmentinvestment
  225 Million (including all systems and the
  steam tunnel under the Elbe-river to the
  industrial users of the steam)operating the
  price for burning down is actually 110 /t waste

20
Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• some qestions, if you plan a waste incineration
  (1)
• which kind of waste (provenience, pretreatment,
  consistence......)?
• calorific value of waste (estimated trend)?
• which amount of waste (actually, development
  trend.....)?

21
Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• some questions (2)
• Which region of collecting waste (town, district,
  quarter, greater surrounding..........)?
• Which locations are possible?Housing areas in
  the vicinity?Possibilities of energy
  (electricity, district heating, industrial steam)
  delivery?

22
Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• some questions (3)
• Infrastructure of transportation?
• Who ought to build the installation, who will run
  it?Private or state-run, state-aided?Who give
  the money for construction, how long is the
  amortisation?

23
Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• some questions (4)
• Which kind of technics ought to be choosen in
  respect of the factors above?
• Use approved technics! No experiments!
• Use the experience of others, which have no own
  interest to sale something!

24
Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• The aspects of costs of investment and operating
• Invest it depends on the technics, the size and
  other factors. Material from different countries

25
Incineration of municipal waste/hazardous waste

• The aspects of costs of investment and operating
• Operating between 65 and 330 /tin Europe,
  mostly in the range of 90 140 /t
• It hold true for all the larger plant has the
  lower costs
