Based on 90 Tons Per Day (TPD) the amount of landfill space required under existing methods, indicated on the left, is 350 cubic meters. You will see (in the next column to the right) the adjusted requirement if a disciplined ‘Recycle program’ is in effect. The next column (red) shows the disintegrated residue from the same 90 tons, which requires just 25 cubic meters while the last column (yellow) indicates the ultimate in reduction, with recycling in effect, at 15 cubic meters of landfill space.

The primary and secondary columns in this chart show the difference in operating temperatures between current incinerators and the KDS system. The noticeable lower temperatures of incineration are a product of the use of “grates”. Molten glass and aluminum cans may clog these grate systems, and due to the higher heat value of modern garbage, the grates are subject to bending and distortion. No such threat keeps the Disintegrator from retrieving the HHV (High Heat value = 7446 Btu’s/Lb) of the trash presented. Conventional incinerators, with all their restrictions, commonly recover only the LHV (Lower Heat Value) of around 4500 Btu’s/Lb.

The centre column is the optimum operating range for the Disintegrator where we still have perfect combustion. We also have a reserve capacity when an Energy Recovery Component (co-generation turbine) is included in any KDS installation.

Two of the more important factors in dispatching the impurities resulting from the products of combustion, are Dwell Time and Temperature. Here you see a comparison between the Disintegrator on the left at 4.2 seconds while the conventional design delivers an inadequate 1 second. Designed with the destructive criteria for every known carcinogenic matter (excluding Radio-Active) the Disintegrator is capable of accepting and processing the widest range of waste types and classes, rendering them inert.

The net volume and weight reduction in the process is 83.6% and 64% respectively. A dramatic saving and reduced reliance on landfill space requirements.

The stack and Dial are self-explanatory and warrant serious consideration when comparing our system to other methodologies. The most evident sign of success is the visual inspection of the stack emissions. As you can see, we have a crystal clear emission level. During the four-day test, not one inquiry was made in respect to sound , smell or smoke, despite the machines proximity to the Main Street and fast-food outlets. 

The KDS goes way beyond their suggested 100 ppm hydrocarbons achieving 0.00 ppm!

The photo of raw “Run of the Dump” garbage was originally seven tons of trash, converted to 1-1/2 wheelbarrows of clean and organic free ash. It easily meets the TCLP requirements (Toxicity Character of Leachable Products) and is comfortably suitable as land-fill in registered locations.

• Run of the dump, as delivered.
• No sorting or screening of the curbside waste other than any pre-delivery recycling programs in place.
• Despite the recycling efforts the mass still contained an abundance of glass, metals and paper.
• High operating temperatures, excellent mixing and appropriate dwell time reduces the waste by 83% volume and 64% weight.
• Where the Guidelines call for carbon content of 10,000 ppm maximum, the KDS discard contains a mere 0.04 ppm.
• Simply put, a tandem garage truckload of garbage is reduced to a few wheelbarrow loads of harmless ash.

This image is a subtle reminder of a typical everyday landfill site. Just burying the problem won’t make it go away!
