Waste management is still one of the key challenges across major developing countries. Over a billion tons of waste is generated from agriculture, municipal, and industrial activities.

Waste to Energy (WtE) uses technologies to turn waste into energy such as; electricity, fuels and steam. The use of Wte plants as a means of disposing of solid and liquid wastes to produce electricity is growing, according to one energy report the value of WtE can from USD 35.84 billion in 2024 to USD 50.92 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.5%, much of this growth coming from Asia Pacific¹.

WtE plants offer two noteworthy benefits: environmentally safe waste management and disposal and clean electric power generation. Helping to reduce the environmental impacts of municipal solid waste management, including emissions of greenhouse gases.

Waste to energy techniques, such as thermochemicals, can help end-users to alter waste management in an earnings opportunity for multiple applications such as food processing, dairy farms, and wastewater treatment. And to run a Waste to Energy plant, you need process instrumentation which can make you feel confident in the safety and reliability of your plant, which is where we come in. With over 100 years of engineering experience, we are experts in helping WtE companies with their process implementation.

Product Focus: Hydrastep

Hydrastep has been designed specifically by us to monitor boiler levels, irrespective of industry, in the simplest and most reliable manner making it a great option for all waste-to-energy companies looking to maximise the smooth operation of their facilities. Hydrastep gives confidence in knowing their water-tube boilers are protected from low water levels, as Hydrastep gives continuous feedback on the levels of water and steam contained within the boiler itself.

Hydrastep’s reliability is a great alternative to sight glass in the monitoring of steam and boiler and was recommended in the CEA’s latest guidance on the safe operations of water-tube Boilers. This document BG11 provides designers and operators with a better understanding of water-tube boiler systems, specifically how to maintain a boiler system safely and efficiently as well as being environmentally friendly.
