Flue Gas Treatment
High performance fabric filter

Kanadevia Inova developed its fabric filter to remove solids (dust) from the flue gas. It’s a physical separation process where the solids are filtered out at the surface of a gas-permeable fabric. If the fabric filter is used in a dry (XeroSorp process) or semi-dry (Kanadevia Inova SemiDry) sorption process, a filter layer of reagents and fly ash forms on the filter bags, where pollutants are separated out.

The filter is designed to be as cost-effective and environmentally friendly as possible. The latest version meets all the different legal regulations and customer requirements that an efficient, state-of-the-art flue gas system for waste-to-energy applications is expected to fulfil.

Advantages

  • Small footprint thanks to long filter bags (up to 9m) and asymmetric positioning of bags in each filter chamber

  • High plant availability, as the filter chambers can be individually isolated during full-load operation to check for defective filter bags

  • Fully automated filter control and cleaning enables highly efficient cleaning and reduces power consumption for compressed air

  • Filter bags specifically designed for long life and effective cleaning

  • Better SO2 resistance, with a minimal filter cake remaining on the surface during the cleaning process

  • Ready for future carbon capture integration, as low PM2.5* is already assured

Grate Combustion systems

The combustion system is the best-proven thermal waste treatment technology for mixed municipal, industrial or hazardous waste, and the heart of any modern, state-of-the-art Waste to Energy (WtE) plant.

Flue gas treatment

Incinerating waste produces exhaust gases laden with diverse pollutants. Different processes are used to remove these pollutants before the purified flue gas leaves the plant safely through the stack.

Carbon capture

Capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the flue gas produced in hard-to-abate industries and properly storing it (a process called carbon capture and storage or CCS) is a key component of most governments’ net-zero strategies.

Energy recovery

Recovering the energy content of waste is a key component of WtE technology. Since the process is largely renewable and involves only a low level of emissions, it also helps significantly reduce greenhouse gases.

Residue treatment

Thermal waste treatment produces residues which can be either reused or landfilled. The principal components are slags and ashes, consisting mostly of non-combustible waste constituents such as glass, minerals or scrap metals.

EcoFlex™ WtE plant solution

The new pre-engineered EcoFlex™ solution provides a modern waste infrastructure based on proven in-house technologies, allowing a cost-optimised design of single-line Waste to Energy plant construction and operation.
