Waste to Energy System
| Integrated waste collection and disposal system | collection points identification | disposal points identification | machine sizing in function of the daily load |
| gasification technology use as a clean waste destruction process | metallic and glass material recycling | very low atmospheric emissions |
| maximum 4% of residual ashes | complete reversibility of the place where it is installed | correct insertion architecture-environment |
| energy production as an added value | “total voracity” system |
Municipal solid waste – Pneumatics – Hospital wastes – Kitchen wastes – Urban green – Contaminated oil, Polypropylene and natural absorbents - Diesel filters from
cars, ships, locomotive and other various vehicles – Car oil filters – Plastics – Manufactured paper pulp/mix with other wastes – Some inflammable gases – Inflammable
liquids - Oxidizers/organic Peroxides – Sawdust, mud and ashes – Furniture's – Paint waste – Railways sleepers – Rubber polymers – Biomass – PVC tubes – Wood
waste – Animal wastes – Skin waste – Oils – Car fluff – Construction waste (wood, plastics, paint, packaging) – Excluded radioactive and explosives waste.
CARACOL Waste to Energy System uses the eppm ageppm ag gasification technology providing exceptional results.
The system has two configurations: mobile and fixed
THE WASTE IS TRANSFORMED IN SYNTHETIC GAS, SYNGAS, THEREFORE LITTERALY DEMATERIALIZED FOR ABOUT 96% OF
ITS TOTAL AND, ULTIMATELY, TRANSFORMED IN THERMIC AND ELECTRIC ENERGY.
THE WASTE TRANSFORMATION PRODUCES THE BENEFICIAL EFFECT OF LIGHTENING THE FISICAL AND CONTAMINATION LOAD
THAT THE PLANET WOULD HAVE HAD TO BEAR AND US TO SUFFER.

Primary cellPrimary cell
Each primary cell has an operative reception capacity from 7 to 60 ton/day and has the following characteristics:
Internal pressure: - 0,5 bar;Internal pressure: - 0,5 bar;
Temperature range: 350ºC – 480ºC – depending on the material treated;Temperature range: 350ºC – 480ºC – depending on the material treated;
Ashes: 3% - 5% - in function of the material treated;Ashes: 3% - 5% - in function of the material treated;
Oxidation time: 8h – 12h;Oxidation time: 8h – 12h;
Obviously the number of primary cells will be defined according to the requested dimensions of the plant; as an example, a system producing 300 kW with MSW
having a 10900 kJ/kg calorific power, will need 2 primary cells of 7 tons each one.
Secondary cellSecondary cell
After the primary cells treatment, the waste is transformed in syngas and sent to the secondary cell. The data in the secondary cell are the following:
Internal pressure: positive;Internal pressure: positive;
Temperature range: 800ºC – 1300ºC – depending on the material treated;Temperature range: 800ºC – 1300ºC – depending on the material treated;
Permanence time: 2,5” – 3,5”;Permanence time: 2,5” – 3,5”;
The syngas in exit from the secondary cell is sent to an heat exchanger/boiler for the production of vapor that will ultimately feed the turbine.

CARACOL Waste to Energy System produces between 3% to 5% of inert ashes
these wastes can be reused in various compounds as inert/binding

20. evolution has made him adapt to any environment
it can be located everywhere, even in the most extreme places
thanks to its versatility, composition modality and external “skin” (shell)
is capable to adapt to the most various conditions and environments
21. the shell can have various shades
the covering can be composed of different colorings
the material to use will adapt to any locations and environmental “camouflage”
22. the shell grows in the course of time
the complete system can be extended depending on the needs
23. produces a small quantity of residues
at the end of the waste treatment process, the processed waste output are the ashes.
Between 3% and 5%, but fundamentally, there will be completely inert.
24. the shell offers protection to the CARACOL (defense mechanism)
the system is predisposed in such a way to have a continuous cycle even in
the case of damages to the various parts

35. is committed in years to the environmental sector. His primary objective is the research, planning and realization of advanced technological
systems to resolve the problematic linked to the treatment and disposal of any kind and type of waste, with the consequent production of energy
(thermic and electric).
To date, the verifiable results achieved with the described technology, heartbeat of our
CARACOL Waste to Energy System, makes de it the more complete, sustainable and resolute instrument in the world, for the definitive
elimination of this planetary waste disposal problem.

36. has always known how to conjugate the incomparable Italian creativity with a high professional profile. These extraordinary gifts has enabled him
to collect important international appreciation.
His precious contribution has been to conceive a form, or better said a “suit”, for our system, of an extraordinary efficiency, both for the plant's
functionality and architecture sustainability that it harmoniously manifest. Once again a success, capable of integrating masterfully also the
“philosophical” concept that has originated the form choice.

37. during his 25 years Of Corporate Advisory activity (Advisory Services & Corporate Finance). He has matured a certain predilection for new
businesses and markets development, for itself and/or for his own clients. In particular, in the last twelve years, it has concentrated his attention
on the Waste to Energy systems, its profound technical comprehension and consequently diffusion on the market. This has meant to travel on
the 5 continents, meeting Public, Governmental and/or local Administrations, to submit them The technological solution to their problems, but
also to identify and plan, through feasibility studies, the most appropriate “operative model” to their different realities and, when necessary,
identify the consequent legislative path.
The gravity of the waste problem, the urgency to find a solution, the vastness of this specific “market”, the uniqueness and excellency of the
technology selected (the EPPM one), in this sector that can be defined has “newborn”, in addition to network and projects disseminated around
the world, makes the enormous experience of J.C.&P even more exceptional.
