Primary Equipment Improvement

These projects improve performance and extend service life by introducing the latest technologies.

Although municipal solid waste treatment plants are required to operate for many years, the equipment they use needs to be updated once 20 or more years have passed since the start of operation. In addition, legal and social changes sometimes necessitate large-scale modifications.
TAKUMA uses the sophisticated heat utilization and energy-saving technologies it has developed as a boiler and environmental plant manufacturer to carry out large-scale, high-added-value modification projects to help extend facilities’ service lives, reduce CO₂ emissions, and lower running costs.

Example of Primary Equipment Improvement Project

Energy Recovery Measures

Improving Heat Recovery

Utilizing unused waste heat by adding boilers to water injection furnaces

Increasing evaporation amount by expanding boilers’ heat transfer area

Increasing steam turbine capacity

Increasing generating capacity by increasing intake steam volume

Increasing combustion equipment efficiency

Increasing combustion stability and stabilizing evaporation amount and power generation output through changes in furnace shape

Reducing flue gas volume and increasing the heat recovery rate through improvements to combustion equipment

Energy-saving Measures

Changing control systems

Significantly reducing power consumption by implementing inverter-based speed and airflow control

Increasing efficiency

Saving energy by increasing the efficiency of motors and other equipment
