Municipal solid waste energy recovery in Italy: Technology assessment; Situazione attuale e prospettive della termoutilizzazione dei rifiuti solidi urbani in Italia

Abstract

In line with Italian national energy conservation policies, special normatives and electricity tariffs are currently being developed in Italy to encourage industrial and municipal concerns to make use of new energy recovery technologies in the processing of municipal solid wastes and other similar types of wastes. With reference to recent developments in Italian normatives on municipal solid waste energy recovery, this paper assesses the state of Italian expertise in this field and focuses on already operating municipal waste incineration plants equipped with energy recovery cycles; plants using innovative cycles in the fluidized-bed combustion or gasification of refuse derived fuels, with the maximization of electrical and thermal energy recovery; advanced industrial systems for the preparation and optimum use of refuse derived fuels combined with conventional fossil fuels. Examples are given of the successful application of refuse derived fuel technologies by specific industries (e.g., in cement and brick production), and an assessment is also made of the relative benefits in terms of pollution abatement.
