Maximum utilisation of municipal solid waste with the efficient Maximum Yield Technology system

Against the background of increasingly scarce raw materials, the use of alternative resources is becoming ever more important. In this context, municipal solid waste is also gaining in importance as a resource.

Maximum Yield Technology (MYT®) was developed by Zweckverband Abfallbehandlung Kahlenberg (Kahlenberg Waste Treatment Association), ZAK, with the aim of recovering as much of the waste’s raw material and energy content as possible and harnessing the energy potential in the form of usable energy sources. Thus, instead of the exclusive use of landfill or incineration, maximum economic use is made of the waste in the form of raw materials, quality-assured fuels and energy-rich biogas. This paper describes the Kahlenberg MBT plant’s genesis, process steps, current operational results and technological developments as an MYT® reference plant which is generating a great deal of interest both nationally and internationally.
