Solid waste incineration plants are facilities that dispose of domestic, commercial and industrial wastes by burning them at high temperatures and generate energy in the process. These facilities reduce the volume of waste and provide environmental and economic benefits by converting the heat generated in the combustion process into energy.

Domestic, commercial, medical and industrial wastes are transported to the incineration plant through waste collection systems. When the wastes reach the facility, they are kept in temporary storage areas for a short period of time. The waste is loaded into the incinerator through hydraulically controlled lids. The waste is burned in the combustion chamber at high temperatures (usually 850-1200°C). In this process, the volume of waste is reduced and energy is released. The heat released in the combustion process can be used to generate electricity through steam turbines or directly as heat energy. The gases produced after combustion are treated with advanced emission control systems, preventing the release of harmful gases into the environment. Ash formed after combustion is removed from the furnace through ash covers and disposed of properly.

Reduces the volume of waste by up to 90%, resulting in more efficient use of landfill space. The heat released in the combustion process can be converted into electricity or heat energy through energy recovery. Advanced emission control systems minimize the release of harmful gases. Medical and hazardous waste is disposed of safely.

Solid waste incineration plants are costly to install and operate. Harmful gases and particulates can be generated during the combustion process, so emission control is critical. Not all types of waste can be incinerated; some wastes may adversely affect the combustion process.

Solid waste incineration plants can incinerate a wide range of wastes such as household waste, commercial waste, industrial waste, medical waste and hazardous waste. However, the suitability of the waste types for the incineration plant should be checked.

The heat released in the combustion process is used to generate electricity through steam turbines or directly as heat energy. This energy can be used to meet the facility's own needs or sold to the national electricity grid.

Post-combustion gases are treated with advanced emission control technologies such as electrostatic filters, venturi scrubbers, neutralization, oxidation and absorption systems. These systems minimize the release of harmful gases and particles into the environment.

Solid waste incineration plants can minimize environmental impacts when operated correctly. Advanced emission control systems prevent the release of harmful gases and particulates into the environment. In addition, energy recovery reduces dependence on fossil fuels.

The capacity of solid waste incineration plants varies depending on the size and technology of the plant. For example, a plant may have the capacity to incinerate 5,400 kg of waste per hour.

The installation of solid waste incineration plants can typically take several months to several years, depending on the size and scope of the project. The installation process includes plant design, construction, equipment installation and testing.

The cost of solid waste incineration plants varies depending on the capacity of the plant, technology, local regulations and other factors. Investment costs can be high, but in the long run they offer energy recovery and waste management benefits.

Modern solid waste incineration plants are equipped with advanced safety and emission control technologies. These facilities comply with strict regulations and standards to protect the environment and public health.
