The project concerns the construction of a plant in a stand-alone configuration, consisting of both anaerobic digestion section of the organic fraction deriving from the separate collection of urban waste (OFMSW) with bio-methane production (energy recovery) and quality compost (material recovery) and a mechanical-biological treatment section of mixed municipal solid waste (M.S.W) for the recovery of materials / products and energy for the plant’s self-consumption.
The plant has a maximum treatment capacity of 65.000 t/year for the OFMSW treatment section and 80.000 t/year for the M.S.W treatment section. The project therefore envisages the conduct of waste management operations R3 – R4 – R13 – D8 – D13 – D15 as indicated in Annex B and C of the fourth part of Legislative Decree 152/2006. The activities that take place within the plant can be divided as follows:
OFMSW treatment section
- Mechanical pretreatments;
- Anaerobic digestion, biogas production, biomethane refining;
- Production of quality compost.
M.S.W treatment section
- Mechanical separation treatments;
- Anaerobic stabilization, biogas production, energy cogeneration;
- Aerobic biostabilization of organic waste;
- Material recovery;
- RDF production.
The organic treatment of OFMSW produces a high quality compost equal to about 21.000 t/year and biomethane production equal to about 490 Sm³/h. In the M.S.W treatment section we obtain a quantity of stabilized organic fraction (O.F) about 19.000 t/year, recyclable materials about 22.000 t/year and a biogas production about 430 Nm³/h.
