Energy Production?
A 15 MWth (thermal energy output) is the heat / steam
continually produced which when processed though a turbine
to generate electricity loses 60% of its heat. Roughly speaking
and based on household waste the reactor will generate 6
MWe or 6,000,000 watts of electricity per hour.
This is enough to continually run two medium sized schools
Based on 8000 hours of manual operation and waste at
3500kcal/ton you can burn roughly 40,000 tonne
Note: Plants are available in various sizes and are designed to meet client
specifications.
