2What is Waste to Energy?
- Waste to energy is a process of making
electricity from waste materials without causing
any damage to the environment. It involves
conversion of feedstock into gases by reacting
the feedstock at high temperatures without
combustion.
3Advantage of Gasification
- Low-cost electricity supply is the biggest
advantage of gasification process. - Energy generated at a 10MWe facility is
sufficient to light more than 25,000 homes.
4Waste to Energy Conversion Process
- Feedstock undergoes off-site preparation by
specialist suppliers - The feedstock now a prepared fuel is further
screened and stored on site
5Waste to Energy Conversion Process
- The prepared fuel is then stored and fed into one
of Gasifiers where it is heated under carefully
controlled conditions to form a fuel gas - This gas is then passed into a boiler for energy
conversion with the resultant steam being sent to
a turbine for energy recovery

10Cost of a Plant
- It is an expensive venture but Cogen is always
ready to take the challenge. It has the team,
technology, knowledge and finance needed to
establish new plants. It has been working on
advanced gasification since long time and it has
plans to take the technology of advanced
gasification to highest level.
