| THE PROBLEM with garbage disposal in Africa today
1. Garbage volume grows dramatically, much faster then with population growth 2. Existing landfills are overflowing, urban growth does not allow for the expansion of landfills, new landfills have to be moved far away, which requires more money for removal 3 there are environmental risks for the population and the environment 4. the population is not ready to pay high rates for garbage collection 5 states and municipalities do not have technologies and investments for recycling |
What solutions are required?
Africa growing waste volumes require innovative solutions which will allow to provide large scale projects for waste collection and processing in urban centers in Africa, meeting the following requirements:
Solutions shall be cost effective and economically viable, providing competitive attractive returns to private investors
Solutions shall be fully environmentally friendly at all stages from waste collection to waste processing (zero waste and zero emissions solutions).
OUR TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS
We have identified, developed, integrated and applied innovative technologies for waste collection and waste processing, which are completely environmentally friendly, have zero waste and zero emissions, also fully restore and purify and reuse recycled water used in the processing.
Spectrum of products we produce covers variety of energy and food security needs of Africa sustainable development. We use a combination of several technologies, including production of synthetic gas by pyrolysis and high-temperature plasma.
What type of waste we process?
We can process any waste of organic compounds municipal waste, sewage sludge, oil refining waste, poultry lignite, all types of agricultural waste, animal husbandry, poultry farming without emissions and burials
What technologies we apply?
A complex of the following technological processes will be used to ensure the conversion of waste without emissions and burials:
- reactors based on the pyrolysis process technology at a temperature of 400-980°C for rapid gasification of medical and industrial waste, transformer oils, hazardous waste of 1-3 hazard classes; for poultry, livestock, MSW waste, superheated steam is used for coal gasification;
- gasification reactors with microwave emitters at temperatures of 1000 - 1300 °C for highly hazardous waste;
- plasma-chemical technologies;
- technology of oxidation in the supercritical state of water for the complete neutralization of water (99.9999%) after purification of synthesis gas and its return to the technological process;
- mineralization technology for the neutralization of ash residues and salts of heavy metals;
- technology of vitrification of mineral waste;
- technologies for the synthesis of methanol and ammonia;
