Case study – Redundant slag transport in four identical waste-to-energy plants

Troughed belt conveyor, overbelt magnetic separator
No more domestic waste in Russian landfills
As part of Green Tariff, a program launched in 2017 to promote renewable energy, the Russian parliament passed a law that promotes renewable energy generation technologies. This includes plants for thermal recycling of non-recyclable waste, helping the country move away from landfills toward sustainable waste management. By 2022, household waste will no longer be allowed to go to landfills; instead, it must be separated from recyclable components and later processed in incinerators to generate energy.
In order to cope with the upcoming disposal and recycling bottlenecks, four new waste-to-energy plants are being built in the Moscow area, Russia's largest producer of household waste. The Loibl Förderanlagen GmbH is involved in the construction of the new waste incineration plants on behalf of the Swiss-Japanese cleantech company and one of the international market leaders Hitachi Zosen Inova AG and is supplying the slag transport systems, which are identical for all plants.
The slag resulting from incineration is distributed to two 76-meter-long troughed belt conveyor lines via six feed stations at each cogeneration plant. The redundant process used increases plant availability and prevents operational downtime, as the operator can switch between two conveyor lines. The LASHBELTCON® transports the slag to maintenance towers containing magnetic separators.
The magnetic separators remove most of the contained FE constituents from the slag and transfer them via a drop chute to the storage boxes below. Further conveyors transport the slag to the slag preparation plant, where the bottom ash is prepared for further use. Each plant processes 700,000 tons of waste per year and generates up to 75 MW of electrical energy from it.
