Overview

The LitBurn LBI – 250 strikes a perfect balance between capacity and eco-friendly operation, making it ideal for medium-scale waste management needs. This incinerator is designed to handle larger waste volumes than the LBI – 125 while maintaining the same commitment to efficiency and environmental stewardship. Built in Britain with top-quality materials and advanced burner technology, the LBI – 250 offers exceptional fuel efficiency and dependable performance.

Backed by over a decade of experience in incinerator design, the LBI – 250 is crafted by a team of experts who ensure it meets the highest standards of reliability and effectiveness. Adhering to strict environmental standards, this model supports our goal of achieving net zero emissions, making it a sustainable choice for various applications.

The LitBurn LBI – 250 is ideally suited for:

A waste incinerator, such as the LitBurn LBI – 250, is a facility that burns waste materials at high temperatures, converting them into ash, flue gas, and heat. Waste is fed into a combustion chamber, where it is ignited and burned. The heat generated can be used to produce steam, which may then be converted into electricity or used for heating.

The LitBurn LBI – 250 is capable of incinerating a wide range of waste types, including municipal solid waste (household trash), industrial waste, medical waste, hazardous waste, and certain biomass materials. Before incineration, materials like metals and glass are usually separated out for recycling.

Waste incineration can reduce the volume of waste destined for landfills and generate energy from waste. However, it also produces emissions such as carbon dioxide, dioxins, and heavy metals, which must be managed carefully. The environmental impact of incineration depends on the technology used and the effectiveness of emission control systems.

Using the LitBurn LBI – 250 offers several benefits, including significant reduction in waste volume, energy generation from waste, reduced reliance on landfills, and the destruction of harmful pathogens in medical and hazardous waste. Additionally, it supports environmental sustainability by potentially lowering greenhouse gas emissions compared to landfilling.

Waste incineration produces emissions such as carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), particulate matter, dioxins, furans, and heavy metals. The LitBurn LBI – 250 is equipped with advanced pollution control technologies to minimize these emissions and ensure compliance with environmental standards.

The LitBurn LBI – 250 recovers energy through a process known as Waste-to-Energy (WtE). The heat generated from burning waste is used to produce steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity. This electricity can be used on-site or fed into the grid, and the heat can also be used in district heating systems.

Waste incineration involves burning waste to reduce its volume and generate energy, while landfilling involves burying waste in the ground. Incineration reduces the physical size of waste but produces emissions, whereas landfilling can result in long-term environmental issues like methane generation and groundwater contamination.

Health risks from waste incineration primarily come from exposure to harmful emissions such as dioxins, furans, and particulate matter. These substances can contribute to respiratory issues, cancer, and other health problems if not properly controlled. The LitBurn LBI – 250 is designed with advanced pollution control systems to minimize these risks and ensure safe operation.

Hazardous materials are incinerated at higher temperatures to ensure complete combustion and the destruction of toxic substances. The LitBurn LBI – 250 is equipped with sophisticated pollution control systems to safely manage hazardous waste, capturing and treating harmful emissions before they are released.

In the UK, waste incineration is regulated under the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016, which incorporate the EU Industrial Emissions Directive (IED). These regulations impose strict limits on emissions from incinerators and require the use of Best Available Techniques (BAT) to minimize pollution. The Environment Agency enforces these regulations through permits and regular inspections to ensure compliance with environmental and safety standards.
