JFE High-Temperature Gasifying and Direct Melting Furnace System (hereinafter “JFE Gasifying & Melting System”) was developed to treat various types of wastes and to contribute to resource more materials for recycling. Since 2003, ten (10) JFE Gasifying & Melting plants (total 20 lines) have been in operation in Japan. Starting from the basic explanations of the Japanese waste management and the reasons why gasification plants were introduced into the Japanese Waste to Energy (WtE) market, this report describes features of JFE Gasifying & Melting System, outline and operational results of the reference plant, such as highly efficient energy recovery under the conditions of steam parameters at 60 bar / 450 deg. C with re-circulation of exhaust gas. Results of plant operation were satisfactory. That proves JFE Gasifying & Melting System is reliable in plant operation, flexible in wide range of wastes and efficient in power generation. As the leading WtE plant supplier in Japan, JFE Engineering is making further efforts to contribute to resource recycling in this field.
