A Renewable Energy Plant ("REP") or Disintegration to Energy facility is a high efficiency, low cost and environmentally advantageous solution. High pressure heat generated from disintegrating waste is used to generate steam that powers a turbine to generate electricity. This electricity is transmitted to the local power grid and ultimately to end users.

Waste Material Handling and Input System: Waste material is introduced into to the Disintegration to Energy facility for processing through a gravity fed system that delivers the waste into the primary combustion chambers by an omni-maneuverable skid steer loader. Waste Material Disintegration: Waste is disintegrated in a self contained combustor, which combusts 100% of the material through a primary and secondary mechanism. Steam Boiler System: The heat that results from the Disintegration System is converted to high pressure steam in the steam boiler system. Environmental Pollution Control System: A cyclonic separator removes coarse particulate from the gas stream before it enters the heat exchanger in the air quality control system and boiler. The heat and associated gases through the steam boiler system are treated to remove fly-ash and gases. This complies with local environmental protection agency standards and regulations. Steam Turbine: The usable high temperature and high pressure steam received from the steam boiler system is used to change the heat energy in to rotating energy. During this process the high temperature and high pressure steam is converted to low temperature and low pressure steam. Steam Cooling and Water Treatment: The steam is cooled by an air cooled condenser cooling system (as opposed to a water cooled condenser) which dissipates the heat to the atmosphere and condenses the steam back to water which is re-used to make steam. Make-Up Water: Depending on the cooling method, a certain amount of make-up water will be required to account for water lost to the atmosphere.

Electrical Generators: The rotating energy from the steam turbine is used to produce electrical energy at a given voltage and frequency. Electrical Distribution: The electrical output from the generators is distributed to the sub station. Electrical Substation: The substation houses switching equipment, protection and controls to parallel the generators to a common electrical bus where the voltage is typically stepped up to a higher transmission voltage using a transformer. Electrical Transmission and Grid Interconnect: The electrical output from the substation is transported over high voltage transmission lines to the point of interconnect to the transmission grid. This also requires the use of complicated power system protection components to protect the Power Station and also comply with the local transmission authority standards. The transmission grid transports the electrical energy to the end users. Energy and Power Data Monitoring and Billing System: Depending on the nature of the power station and end user relationship, the end user may be monitored for energy and power usage and billed accordingly. Electronic Control, Protection and Monitoring System: Typically the entire plant process is monitored, controlled and integrated into a common platform to allow for the correct operation and maintenance of the plant.
