An Overview of Power Generation From Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Plants at Home and Abroad

With the increasing demands on the environment, the rational treatment and disposal of garbage is playing an important role in practicing the concept of green development and promoting the construction of ecological civilization. This view of "garbage is a resource placed in the wrong place" is gaining more and more recognition. Municipal solid waste (MSW) incineration power generation technology as a method of solid waste utilization has evolved into a mature resource utilization technology. This paper compares the domestic and international MSW incineration technologies from the top, middle and lower reaches of the waste incineration power generation industry, namely the characteristics of MSW, combustion technology and flue gas control. The results show MSW incineration technology is still an indispensable means to achieve waste reduction and resource reduction. However, it is necessary to upgrade the incineration techno-logy, improve the MSW incineration process, strictly control the emission of pollutants in the incineration flue gas, and establish real-time monitoring points to avoid secondary pollution.
