Programme Highlights

In Hong Kong, currently over 10,000 tonnes of municipal solid waste (MSW) is being disposed of in our landfills, of which about 3,600 tonnes are food waste.  Together with yard waste, over 4,000 tonnes of putrescribles are being disposed of, and this is the largest portion of our community’s MSW.

The State of the art ATS Technology utilizes super-heated steam to decompose the organic feedstock to create valuable and high quality end products. The ATS technology is a unique multi-purpose waste conversion system and produces no measurable pollution.  This technology should not just be considered as only an energy converting system, but also the top leading-edge waste management system that can be used in many major waste applications such as recovery of landfills, removal of oil and coal waste, deal with manure problems and retreatment of activated carbon. It can be applied by industries to produce carbon black and fuel oil. This ATS Technology is also able to reduce CO2 emissions when treating waste.  To illustrate this new technology, the development of earlier pyrolysis systems will be traced and the disadvantages the other pyrolysis systems encounter will also be discussed.

Speaker
