There is no single solution to refuse disposal. One part of an environmentally sound refuse disposal program includes the combustion of refuse to generate steam for heat, process or power generation applications.
B&W provides two boiler options when using refuse as a combustion fuel. The first, known as mass burning of municipal solid waste (MSW), uses the refuse in its as-received, unprepared state. The second technique uses prepared refuse, or refuse-derived fuel (RDF), where the as-received refuse is first separated, classified, and reclaimed in various ways to yield salable or otherwise recyclable products. The remaining material is prepared for firing in the boiler furnace.
Based on our experience with burning a wide variety of traditional and non-traditional fuels, B&W's waste-to-energy boilers are designed and constructed with the same reliability as our fossil fuel steam generation equipment.
