Energy production

The plant (W2E)

The Waste-to-Energy (WtE) plant, using CNIM-MARTIN technology—a global leader in its field—is thoroughly tested. It employs a so-called reciprocating grate technology with air injection, ensuring almost complete waste incineration, thereby achieving optimal energy recovery from the introduced fuel.
Emissions are controlled through a “flue gas treatment” system, and the combustion ash is recycled in cement factories. With centuries of experience, CNIM-MARTIN draws its expertise from leading European technology firms—CNIM MARTIN SA, GmbH, and LAB SA—to offer turnkey thermal recovery solutions.

The Furnace

It is equipped with a reverse-acting grate for waste combustion, specifically designed in Germany by MARTIN and industrialized in India by CNIM MARTIN through an exclusive technology transfer.

The Boiler

CNIM MARTIN offers waste-to-energy boilers based on the proven proprietary design by PAPREC ENGINEERING CNIM.
The boiler is designed according to international standards ASME / IBR / EN in force to achieve optimal efficiency of the installation and a longer operational period. It delivers steam at 40 bars of pressure at temperatures ranging from 400°C to 430°C, according to the project’s requirements.

Flue Gas Treatment

This treatment is handled by LAB, a subsidiary of the MARTIN Group, which provides advanced technology and solutions for atmospheric emission control and flue gas treatment for waste-to-energy applications and industries. LAB’s solutions are backed by the installation of more than 450 lines in various countries. For waste-to-energy applications, LAB has developed and supplied its patented SecoLAB process in recent years, a dry and semi-dry solution based on ammonia (or urea), lime, or sodium bicarbonate.

The turbine

Slide For electricity production, the project will include a set of pure condensing steam turbines and a generator equipped with an air cooling system.
The nominal amount of steam injected into the turbine is 39 tons per hour, with a pressure of 3.8 MPa at a temperature of 395°C. The steam turbine and generator are designed to produce 12.0 MW of electricity, with sufficient margin to handle varying quantities and qualities of waste input. After deducting its own consumption, the plant can guarantee a minimum delivery of 9.0 MW of electricity to the grid.
This turbine will be Chinese manufactured and supplied by CNEEC, the EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) contractor of the project, to ensure perfect continuity between production and the delivery of electricity to the SENELEC National grid.
