In Tomsk, a universal recycling pilot plant carbon-containing waste and the generation of fuel from them, reports press service of the regional administration. Reportedly installation, called “AIST-200” (alternative sources fuel developed by specialists of the scientific and experimental design office “Basalt”, based on business incubator of Tomsk Polytechnic University. “Spectrum development applications are wide ranging from utilities where ordinary household waste, plus the use of wastewater treatment, which dramatically reduces the cost of operating the building, costs residents for the maintenance of the house, the disposal of household waste and payment for wastewater discharge, – noted the main installation advantages Designer of Nekb Basalt Sergey Zotov. – In addition, purified from chemical impurities water can be used repeatedly. Such a small installation can provide heat and gas up to 500 square meters. m housing “.” AIST-200 “can be used for processing carbon-containing raw materials and receipt, depending on desire customer, heat, gas or synthetic fuel. Installation able to recycle almost all waste products person. According to the developers, the pilot project allows create a closed cycle of processing waste and wastewater into heat and electrical energy within the same residential building. All the trash which are emitted by residents of apartment buildings, as well as sewage drains of any home can be processed on site thermal or electrical energy. However, they do not have to burn in the usual way, polluting the air: using a complex chemical solid waste technologies can be processed into large quantities carbon-containing fuel used for heating a house. AND such garbage disposal will be environmentally friendly. S. Zotov also noted that the experimental setup is mobile – it can be install anywhere. This technology has no analogues in the world. The cost of a liter of gasoline produced is only 4 a penny. “AIST-200” produces high octane fuel Euro-4 class. A gasoline surrogate is technologically impossible Despite the fact that household waste and garbage are recycled, which you don’t even need to sort. With the consumption of 3 cubic meters. m household rubbish per hour the installation is capable of releasing up to 200 liters synthetic fuel. “The installation works on the principle of oxidation, without open fire. The cycle is closed, there are no emissions into the atmosphere, for with the exception of ash sediment – carbonates and silicates, – S. explained. Zotov. – The destruction of carbonaceous substances occurs under exposure to high temperatures, and then in the synthesis reactor from carbon and hydrogen gasoline molecules are obtained. ” the creation of such an installation was carried out in Japan at the end of the 20th century, previously reported the Interfax-Siberia news agency referring to the head of the department of chemical fuel technology Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU) Anatoly Kravtsov. However, then there were problems: impurities in the resulting gasoline polluted car engine cylinders. Currently Tomsk the company has not yet developed a strategy for commercializing its development.
