1 CEMEPE 2008, Mykonos, Greece, June 22,2009 ΠΑΡΑΓΩΓΗ ΗΛΕΚΤΡΙΣΜΟΥ ΑΠΟ ΤΑ ΑΣΤΙΚΑ ΣΤΕΡΕΑ ΑΠΟΒΛΗΤΑ (ΑΣΑ) ΤΗΣ ΡΟΔΟΥ A WASTE-TO-ENERGY POWER PLANT FOR THE ISLAND OF RHODES Nickolas Themelis (EEC), Athena Bourka (EPTA), George Ypsilantis (DEKR)

2 Η ΠΡΟΚΛΗΣΗ ΤΗΣ ΔΗΜΟΣΙΑΣ ΕΠΙΧΕΙΡΗΣΗΣ ΚΑΘΑΡΙΟΤΗΤΑΣ ΤΗΣ ΡΟΔΟΥ (Δ.Ε.Κ.Ρ.): THE CHALLENGE OF THE WASTE MANAGEMENT COMPANY OF RHODES: THE TECHNOLOGY SELECTED MUST: Be environmentally superior to sanitary landfill (HYTA) Solve the waste management problems of the island not only for first twenty years but for future generations Be tested and proven widely and for several years Provide capacity for processing the MSW of the ten municipalities of Rhodes and also the commercial and industrial wastes and biosolids of the island. Be economically viable, at a reasonable gate fee per ton of MSW

4 Πως θα μεγαλώσει η παραγωγη ΑΣΑ της Ρόδου

5 Only technology that satisfied the design criteria of DEKR: Grate combustion ( mass-burn )

6 ΓΙΑΤΙ ΔΙΑΛΕΞΑΜΕ ΜΑΖΙΚΗ ΚΑΥΣΗ; Why we selected the grate combustion technology? It has accumulated experience of over 50 years Continuing development by several world class companies (Martin GmbH, VonRoll, Babcock Volundt, Keppels Seeger, others) Very simple operation that can be scaled to all sizes: people can process anywhere from 100,000 to 1,000,000 tons per year.

7 Τypical WTE grate combustion system

10 Μέγεθος μονάδας WTE Ρόδου ESTIMATED CAPACITY OF RHODES WTE WTE Facility consisting of two parallel lines of 10/tons per hour each (total annual capacity of 2 x 80,000 tons) Possibly starting with only one line now (80,000 tons) and providing space in the building and stack for second line later

18 Flowsheet of integrated waste management in Rhodes

19 Rhodes Environmental Park, at site of existing sanitary landfill (HYTA), will include: WTE facility Aerobic composting unit for source-separated green wastes Monofill (HYTY) for WTE ash that is not used beneficially Extension of existing HYTA Center of Environmental Education

20 Preliminary plot plan of Environmental Park (EPTA)

21 CONCLUSIONS o If the Rhodes WTE is provided with 160,000 tons of MSW, this plant is economically feasible at a gate fee of 50 euro per ton. O For the operation of only one unit (80,000 tons) the gate fee will be 60 euro per ton. O In contrast a new HYTA that must be replaced within years, the new WTE can continue to serve future generations at a very low cost, after the first 20 years.

22 Example of island nation: Bermuda

23 On the island of Bermuda, waste management creates land from WTE ash, does not destroy land by landfilling
