The provided diagram illustrates waste-to-energy (WTE), a process of producing energy using waste.
In general, WTE consists of 5 main steps, commencing with the collection of junk, and culminating in the distribution of ash and air.
First of all, scrap is received from various sources, such as farmers and citizens, before being transported to a power plant. Once the garbage reaches its destination, it is immediately picked up by a mechanic claw, then dropped into a pit of fire in order to obtain ash and steam. Some of the gas flow to a turbine and activate it to generate electricity, while the others travel to a flue.
In the subsequent step, the flue, in which the air moves, is connected to a system of pipes that lead to an anti-pollution machine. After the steam arrives at the equipment, it is sanitized so that all the impurities are completely extracted from the gas. Finally, the purified gas goes through a cleansing flue before escaping the factory and vaporizing into the natural environment. As for the bottom ash, it is processed and then delivered to a myriad of places, where the ash can be used as organic compost.
