The INTEC-SG plant for the generation of 480,000 MW of energy per year.
The most efficient way of generating energy from waste.
INTEC synthesis gas technology.
The systems for generating energy from garbage and waste work according to the INTEC synthesis gas process. This process is patented.
The technology:
Generation and utilization of synthesis gas from organic waste. (Except for toxic and hazardous waste).
The synthesis gas plants of the INTEC SG series represent a worldwide unique solution for the energetic utilization of organic waste of any kind.
The synthesis gas produced in the plants is used to drive generators of gas engines to generate electricity. Among other things, this enables electricity to be fed into public grids.
Many years of research and development work led to an innovative technology, the generation of synthesis gas without process-related exhaust gases, as used in the systems of the INTEC synthesis gas systems (INTEC SG series).
The patent-pending INTEC Thermolytic Cracking Process (INTEC-TCP®) avoids the well-known disadvantages of conventional pyrolysis, gasification and combustion technologies such as the formation of undesirable by-products or the use of complex flue gas cleaning systems.
The modular and redundant structure with several production lines of the INTEC SG series ensures continuous operation even during maintenance and repairs.
The systems of the INTEC synthesis gas systems can be adapted to changing conditions and thus take into account the increasing amounts of waste and the simultaneously increasing energy requirements in municipalities and metropolitan areas.
The workflow:
1. Mechanical-biological waste treatment.
The delivered residues are shredded. In hermetically sealed rotting boxes, the biodegradable material is decomposed by microorganisms and its volume is reduced by up to 30%, while at the same time increasing the calorific value by approx. 50 %. The material flow is further processed mechanically and separated into light and heavy materials in a further work step.
2. Synthesis gas plant.
The chemical and energetic conversion of organic substances of all kinds into synthesis gas takes place in this plant. The further processing of the substances into synthesis gas takes place in five other plant components and processes.
3. Power generation systems.
Electricity is generated by medium-voltage generators with turbochargers.
The synthesis gas buffered in an intermediate store is routed via a compressor system to the gas-Otto engines connected to 10kv generators. The electricity generated here can be fed directly into the medium-voltage grid with the same voltage, if necessary also into the high-voltage grid of up to 110 kV.
4. Plants for generating electricity from heat.
As a side effect, the waste heat generated in the various systems is routed through a heat exchanger and evaporated. The resulting steam drives the turbine of the power generation plant, which is connected to a generator. The electricity generated here can be fed into the grid.
