Background
of waste management
in Germany
Incineration
 todays standard treatment process of MSW after
separation at source
Landfilling
 high standard with double lining system, advanced
water treatment and gas utilisation, but............
vertederos 2016
 since 2005 forbidden for untreated
waste with more than 5% organic
carbon
Pyrolysis / Plasma
No permitted plant for MSW in operation

German landfill ban
in operation since 2005
why ?
modern landfills with the very best standards still got:
– poor emission control – disastrous climate balance – poor resource recovery – they are no
sustainable solutions – are very expensive and are polluting air and groundwater
cheap dumps are even more a danger for advanced waste treatment technology. Waste
follows the cheapest road, reason enough, that competitive best technology plants run empty.

Waste reduction and recovery
A first step to thermal treatment or to landfill
We tried to reduce as much as possible
but there still remains a lot of worth giving residue

Problems and Potentials
of remaining waste qualities
Biomass (55 %)
• native organic components with high CO2 reduction potential
• high water content provides problems in incineration
• high water content provides high methane emissons of landfills
Light fraction (plastic) (15%)
•
•
Market potentials due to international oil price
poor quality, depending on collection systems
Metal (up to 4%)
•
Aluminium is the most attractive component but requires sophisticated
separation technologies
Prof. Dr. Klaus Wiemer - Witzenhausen Institut

Incineration and heating value
In order to achieve a reliable operation
the heating value should not be much less than 7.000 kj/kg
That might be difficult in different areas and in different times of the year
Prof. Dr. Klaus Wiemer - Witzenhausen Institut
Tenerife 10-06-2016
Different targets of
pretreatment
• just to improove the behaviour of a subsequent treatment process like
incineration or landfill
• separation of light fraction (RDF)
• generation of plastic fractions
• generation of metal fractions
• generation of a biomass fraction
• generation of glass fractions
• generation of water
Everything is feasable. The question is the economy of the process
Prof. Dr. Klaus Wiemer - Witzenhausen Institut

Market arguments I
Waste: calorific value of 8 Mj/kg < > 200 ltr crude oil equivalent
or in other words; 40 to 283 Dollars/ton
Prof. Dr. Klaus Wiemer - Witzenhausen Institut
Tenerife 10-06-2016
Market arguments II
Worth giving components to be seperated
1. fossile and non fossile energy
2. plastic
3. metals
4. glass
5. stones
6. water

• more than ten different qualities can be sorted out efficiently
• possible problems with compound materials
• possible problems with odour, due to collection history

Products
ferreous and non ferreous

high purities require sophisticated techniques
low purities find reduced market prices
ferreous
Prof. Dr. Klaus Wiemer - Witzenhausen Institut
non ferreous

Products
out of mixed waste:
glass
Feasibility has been shown in large scale plant (Asslar)
• all colours like white, green, brown glass are feasable
• high purities, equal to seperate collection can be achieved
The question is, if you really need it
Prof. Dr. Klaus Wiemer - Witzenhausen Institut

Products
out of mixed waste:
stones
Stones sorted out, washed, sieved (grinded) and prepared
for the market

Solutions
Adaquate solutions require an individual plant design:
• efficient and prooven technology is easily available
• long time experiance can be seen
no general solutions can bere commended
A valid balance between local demands, the general
market situation for products and the available
treatment technology has to be found

cheapest way to escape
