initial findings in a wider
consultative meting on Friday
6th December 2013 on a
feasible option for a WTE
project in Lahore.
• Briefing
on
various
technologies used globally in
the waste-to-energy projects.
• Final report on pre- feasibility
submitted
26
Recommendations of WTE consultants
• Install a Circulation Fluidized Bed (CFB) incineration plant
in the context of waste characterization of Lahore (high
moisture contends and low calorific value).
• Selection of site is important to utilize electricity and heat
generated during the incineration process.
• Electricity efficiency is 20 to 25% and if heat is included
the efficiency increased to 50 to 60%
• Estimated cost of a plant with EU emission standards;
Total investment for WtE-Plant incl. infrastructure
 approx. 4-6 million US$/MW
27
Way Forward for WTE project
• Detailed feasibility for Circulation Fluidized
Bed Combustion (CFBC Technology) – on going
• Detailed feasibility for pyrolysis plant – TORs
are prepared and are being advertised
• Pilot project for biogas and plasma plants are
being worked out
