Abstract
Brazil has problems with biomedical waste (BW) incorrect disposal. New technologies studies to mitigate that problem are becoming increasingly important. The plasma gasification technology can destroy a range of materials, producing, as a result, an inert slag and syngas. The slag can be used in civil construction, whereas syngas can be burned in an internal combustion engine (ICE) for electricity and heat production. This paper aims to carry technical studies of plasma gasification of 3000 t/month of BW to determine the amount of syngas and slag produced and figure out the potential for electricity production by burning the produced syngas in the internal combustion engine.
Keywords
