Abstract

In the paper, in-house developed software W2E is proved as a powerful tool supporting performance analysis of technologies in the field of thermal treatment of waste. Its features and possibilities are demonstrated through a case study involving a real WTE plant with annual capacity of 100 kt of waste. Model building procedure, model validation including rigorous analysis of operational data and practical use of the model are discussed in more details. Results of simulation (i.e. relationship between electricity and heat production under different operational conditions and fuel rate) are presented.
