Energy production

The energy production generated in our plant is expressed with conservative values. As is obvious, each of our technologies has peculiar strengths: gasification maximizes energy yield while plasma torch maximizes inerting. Some matrices obviously perform better than others.

Our partner RINA Consulting - Centro Sviluppo Materiali S.p.A. conservatively provides the parameter of 0,8% gross as the energy coefficient obtainable from gasification. Value obtained by burning the syngas in a normal internal combustion engine with an efficiency oscillating between 27% and 32%. As a rule, for each ton of matrix, using an internal combustion engine, a yield of approximately 30% is considered, net of self-consumption.

Therefore, through gasification, a ton of organic matrices can produce about 800kWh which, conservatively, we reduce net of self-consumption, which affects between 10% and 15%, to 700kWh.

With regard to a combined cycle of gas turbine and steam turbine (or ORC or advanced thermodynamic) General Electric, today Aero - joint venture between GE Power and Baker Hughes, conservatively certifies it, at 52.1%. An easy mathematical proportion shows that:

700kWh : 30% = X : 52,1%. — X = 1.215,66kWh

Therefore, by adopting a combined cycle, net of self-consumption, a gasifier with good quality organic matrices can easily exceed 1,200 kWh for each ton treated.

As we are not manufacturer of technology linked to the production of electricity, we will choose each suppliers’ products on a case by case basis depending on the size of the plant and on the quality of the syngas produced. Each technology that will be adopted will have different yield parameters.

To date, these yields are only possible by adopting such cutting-edge technologies; moreover, the mounting ecological sensitivity pushes to the margins of legality some technologies, once considered also promising, such as the transformation of plastics into fuel oil by autoclave treatment, a technology now banned by almost the whole European Community due to the very high pollution associated with this technology that does not present any applicable improvement margin.

    • Our gasifiers

      The gasifiers take advantage of the molecular dissociation, called pyrolysis, used to directly convert the organic materials present in the waste into gas, by heating, in the presence of small quantities of oxygen. The processed materials are completely destroyed because their molecules are dissociated. This process allows, if compared with the direct burning, a number of significant advantages:...

    • Scraps and their use

      Once the gasification process has taken place, in addition to the synthesis gas, we obtain ash in an amount equal to 5-10% of the treated original matrix (approximately 20% from sludges).

    • Sludges pyrolysis test

      Report of the tests carried in November 2011 on the pilot gasifier at the CSM of Rome - IT in order to determine the self-sustenance of the drying process / pyrolysis and gasification of sludge. The wastewater sludge, residential or industrial whatever their origin, are generally considered as waste and are disposed of in landfill. The increased quantities produced as a result of the increasing number of...

    • The technology

      Our plant is completely innovative in its design while relying on proven, mature technologies and, individually, commercially used for decades in different parts of the world.

    • Biodigestion

      The preparation of the substrate consists in obtaining the physical-chemical characteristics considered optimal for introduction into the biodigester.

    • BIOZIMMI

      We are talking about an atypical industrial plant which, instead of polluting, will proceed to remove pollution and improve people’s lives.

    • Empowering Device

      Empowering Device has been fully conceived, developed and implemented by our team and is able to simultaneously manage different types of controlled cavitation, of which 5 of a different nature but which coexist harmoniously to the point that no significant vibrations are detected.

    • Mining

      The current evolution of mining passes thorough the abandonment of methods that are dangerous for man and the environment, such as the use of mercury and cyanides, to get to Borax, a modern and harmless method, which also allows a better yield in recovered gold.

    • Plasma

      For Plasma refers to a conductive gas, highly ionized. The torch or the non-transferred arc electrodes are capable of producing plasma at very high temperatures (the highest achieved in controlled industrial processes) and such as to cause thermochemical dissociation of what is being treated.

    • Soil washing

      Most of our specialists and technicians come from the Oil & Gas sector and, therefore, has been taught to everyone of them, since the early beginning, that any spillage in the soil must be avoided. This is not only for obvious environmental problems but also to avoid costly and annoying protests by environmental movements.
