Performance Test and Temperature Simulation of Pilot Scale Thermal Plasma System for Fluff SRF Treatment

The improvements in daily living introduced by industrial development are at the expense of the environment. With an increasing interest in flammable waste, it is becoming important to reduce the volume of air pollutants in the waste disposal process and use energy efficiently. There is a need for a system that can increase thermal efficiency while incinerating solid refuse fuel (SRF) products manufactured using combustible waste. Thermal plasma gasification and combustion composite systems are technologies that take advantage of combustion and gasification. An SRF input at 2 ton/h was treated using thermal plasma, and the operating temperature in the reactor was maintained at 1024 °C or higher. The exhaust gas at this time was measured at 7.08 % H2, 0.22 % CH4, and 9.26 % CO.
