Waste management is an acute problem all over the world. Every year the amount of waste increases and there is little or no recycling.

Volume of waste produced

2022 - 80 billion tons of garbage
2050 - up to 14 billion tons

Current disposal technologies (landfill, incineration, gasification) pollute the environment, occupy large areas, have high costs and low efficiency.

Solution

Neutralisation and disposal of waste by means of MW MATRIX microwave irradiation.

The microwave units are capable of disposing of waste of hazard classes I to V with subsequent gas synthesis.

How it works?

Scheme of the recycling process in the MW MATRIX plant

Fuel supply

  • Raw material up to 250 mm fraction is loaded into the fuel hopper
  • A hydraulic cylinder pushes the raw material onto a screw or a hydraulic compactor.
  • The compactor increases the reactor throughput and reduces the amount of oxygen in the reactor interior

Gasification

  • The compacted feedstock is heated by microwave radiation (1200-1500'C) to a gaseous state.
  • The resulting gas is separated in the absence of oxygen into synthesis gas and impurities (to reduce the toxic equivalent in accordance with environmental requirements for dioxins and furans)

Ash removal

  • The ash residue (3-10% of the original mass) is removed from the reactor by an auger and removed by a scraper conveyor.
  • The hot synthesis gas (1000-1200'C) enters the Heat Exchanger (#1) cooled with water and the Absorber (#2)
  • The cleaned and cooled gas enters the compressor.

Electricity generation

A compressor compresses the gas to the required pressure and stores it in an intermediate gas tank, providing fuel reserves for the gas engine generator or fuel cells

60 minutes

time per plant pass from raw material loading to ash production

Up to 0.5-1 MW

electricity is required to gasify 1 tonne of waste

Advantages of using the MW MATRIX system

The material is heated throughout its entire volume, irrespective of its composition

Depending on the type of waste, air or inert gases can be fed into the chamber

The process takes place in a controlled environment (with excess or shortage of gases)

The unit can operate as a pure gasifier

The temperature of the working chamber walls is lower than the temperature of the waste to be disposed of, which completely eliminates the negative processes of coal slag deposition on the walls of the working chamber
