Iran-Made Waste-to-Energy Power Plant Produces Gas for Generating Electricity
“We are a producer of incineration power plants and we put solid and harmful urban waste in the reactor,” Massoud Lotfi, the chairman of the board of directors of the knowledge-based company, told ANA on the sidelines of the INOTEX 2023 exhibition held in Tehran on May 09-12.
He noted that this process will lead to gas production, adding, “The produced gas is called synthesis or clean gas and the electricity is produced by leading it into a gas-burning generator.”
“This waste-to-energy power plant is used in hospitals and big cities to light the torch of engine houses and heat water,” Lotfi said.
“The side products of this machine are synthetic oil, which contains petroleum derivatives like gasoline and diesel, and besides these measures, a small refinery can be built and petroleum products can be extracted.”
“The ash resulting from the reactor can be used for concrete strength, cement factory and asphalt industries. If the trash which enters into the device is organic, it can also be used as agricultural fertilizer,” he concluded.
Focusing on science, technology, and innovation ecosystems, the 12th International Innovation and Technology Exhibition (INOTEX) was inaugurated at Pardis Science and Technology Park in Tehran on May 09, 2023.
The four-day event that had gathered a large number of Iranian and foreign business people, technologists, industrialists, university students and professors and researchers was hosting almost 450 companies.
Pardis Science and Technology Park is located around 20 km East of the capital city of Tehran.
INOTEX aimed to introduce products, facilitate partnerships and provide various insights on the latest global competitive prices, quality standards, developments, scientific findings, and economic-technological ideas.
Currently, INOTEX is recognized as the most significant innovation and technology event in Iran and has been welcomed by many audiences in recent years.
