A Waste-to-Energy (WTE) project can be difficult to organize and finance, Unless it is done with TVI’s two phased approach.
Transvit has purposely developed a simple and affordable method to build WTE, and proven it with more than 100 installations. It is specifically designed for poorer and developing cities, with undeveloped garbage collection infrastructure, a common cause of past WTE failure.
1. PHASE 1 is the elimination of the waste by gasification (incineration). This up to 200 TPD Phase 1 represents 10% to 15% of the full WTE plant cost. And it immediately rids the city of the rotting, unhealthy piles of garbage.
The inexpensive Phase 1 resolves the #1 concern of financiers: "the inherent uncertainties of the feedstock". When Phase 1 is operational, delivery of the waste will be established and proven, and the profitable 2nd Phase is then easily financed.
2. PHASE 2 is energy recovery or electricity generation, and it can be added on at any time following Phase 1. This power generation is 85% of the full WTE plant cost and immediately profitable from Electric Power Sales. Phase 2, up to 400 TPD/8 MW, is easily financed when Phase 1 is operational. WTE provides cheap electricity from "free fuel" that is such a blessing to people.
Where garbage cleanup is a health and environmental issue, and where cheap electricity is needed, this two phased construction is a practical and doable solution for any city..
Waste-to-Energy is defined as "renewable energy" in federal law and the EU, and is the only form of energy generation that actually reduces greenhouse gasses . It plays and important role in addressing climate change. This is due to offsetting emissions of fossil fuel electrical production, from avoiding methane from landfills, and from recovering metals for recycling.
