FEED STUDY
At Environmental Combustion Technologies, our feed study is the cornerstone of designing effective and efficient energy-from-waste solutions. Conducted by our team of experienced professionals, this in-depth analysis evaluates the composition, volume, and calorific value of your waste stream, providing the critical data needed to tailor a system to your specific needs.
Our experts bring years of industry knowledge to the table, ensuring that every aspect of the waste feed is thoroughly understood. This comprehensive study not only helps in optimising the design of your energy-from-waste plant but also ensures compliance with environmental regulations and maximises energy recovery.
​
By partnering with Environmental Combustion Technologies, you benefit from a feed study that lays the groundwork for a custom-engineered solution—one that turns your waste into a valuable resource while supporting your sustainability goals.
Our dedicated team.
Our team is comprised of highly qualified experts who have designed, manufactured, installed, and operated combustion and energy from waste plants for many years.
Through our vast experience in the industry, we have developed a comprehensive format for this study tailored to meet your project's unique needs.
Things to consider.
01.
Waste stream - defining the waste stream or other feedstock(s) using preliminary data about sources, content, composition, packaging, etc.
02.
Environmental and regulatory requirements - Identifying all of the applicable requirements for the jurisdiction in which the project operates. Our engineers will define solutions that meet all applicable requirements and position the project for operational and commercial success.
03.
Preliminary process design - defining the thermal and energy recovery processes that will be central to the overall project.
04.
Initial facility design - in addition to the waste-to-energy and emission abatement plant, this should include arrival and staging of the waste, transport to and from the site
05.
Commercial analysis - economic viability of the proposed solution compared with conditions today. This should consider capital acquisition costs along with operating costs such as fuel, maintenance and labor, in comparison
Feed study stages.
To minimise your exposure, the feed study is set out in 3 distinct stage gates. Progression through each stage gate is authorised by you, the client.
Stage 1
Supply of the base case mass and energy balances calculations arising from the combustion of the specified waste. The output of these calculations will create the Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs).
Stage 2
Supply of the plants economic/sustainability model derived from a detailed, project specific technical specification.
Stage 3
