Abstract
This innovative approach to energy recovery from MSW combines high energy efficiency with a low level of polluting emissions. The estimated global efficiency of the plant, referred to the LHV of the MSW, is around 28-30%, a much higher value than ordinarily obtained in traditional waste incineration plants. The environmental analysis includes a study of the polluting emissions and the simulation of their concentration in the area surrounding the plant: the emissions of the plant have a negligible influence on the original polluting levels of the settlement area.
