The Minden thermal power station is a substitute fuel power station in the East Westphalian city of Minden and is designed as a thermal power station. The location is the Mindener Industriehafen , Karlstrasse 43, 32423 Minden, and substitute fuels of up to 40,000 tons can be burned per year .
history
The cogeneration plant was planned and built by Energon GmbH under the responsibility of interargem GmbH and put into operation in 2002. Energon relied on seven years of research in Norway, which then led to a new combustion technology with optimized combustion and low emissions well below the limit values of the ordinance on incineration plants for waste and similar combustible substances. In 2007 it was acquired by AML Immobilien GmbH, which belongs to the Minden-Lübbecke district . The previous owner, Energos Minden GmbH, is a subsidiary of the E.ON Group . AML-Immobilien GmbH was transferred to KAVG Kreisabfallverwertungsgesellschaft Minden-Lübbecke (KAVAGmbH). It was created in the current organizational form in January 2017 and includes all areas of operational waste management, including the Minden thermal power station.
Technical specifications
The thermal power station has a boiler output of 15 megawatts and generates process steam at a temperature of 240 degrees. 40,000 tons of substitute fuels can be burned per year. The annual heat supply is around 100 gigawatt hours, which is given to the neighboring Siegfried PharmaChemischem Minden GmbH . The firing technology corresponds to that of other power plants and takes place with the help of grate firing . Since the fuel is mostly composed of unknown substances that contain potentially dangerous pollutants, exhaust gas cleaning takes place in accordance with the 17th BImSchV (ordinance on incineration plants for waste and similar combustible substances) . This exhaust gas cleaning is also used in waste incineration plants. The energy gained from the combustion is passed on to the consumer, the Siegfried company, as process heat , as in a steam power plant . The energy of the resulting flue gases is converted into process steam in a waste heat boiler (approx. 12 MWth), which is then conducted over a 2.5 km long, underground and thermally insulated pipe to the chemical factory of the Siegfried company for further use.
