The Ebara Advanced Fluidization Process for Energy Recovery and Ash Vitrification

The Ebara Corporation has developed several types of fluidized bed reactors for the processing of various types of solid wastes. The Ebara Advanced Fluidization Process for energy recovery and ash vitrification has been applied in the fifteen plants (29 lines) listed in Table 1. Most of them process municipal solid wastes (MSW) and plant capacities range from 100 (Sakata) to 300 (Tokyo) tones per day. The total treatment capacity is about 2,700 tones per day and the thermal capacity 387 M W.
