World's largest waste-to-energy plant to be built in Shenzhen, China

- Danish firms Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects and Gottlieb Paludan Architects have won a competition to design the world's largest waste-to-energy power plant in China.
Proposed for the mountainous region on the outskirts of Shenzhen, the waste-to-energy plant is expected to incinerate 5,000 tonnes of rubbish per day - approximately one third of the waste generated by the city's 20 million inhabitants each year.
According to the architects, the facility will "utilise the most advanced technology in waste incineration and power generation".
The huge circular building will boast a 66,000-square-metre roof, two thirds of which will be covered with photovoltaic panels, allowing the building to generate its own sustainable supply of energy.
It will also feature a series of visitor facilities, including a looping walkway that offers a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of the plant, before leading up to a rooftop viewing platform.
"The project firstly aims to provide a clean, simple and modern technical facility to deal with the city's growing waste," explained architect Chris Hardie, head of Schmidt Hammer Lassen's Shanghai office.
"At the same time it aims to educate visitors to this growing waste challenge by taking them on an elevated walkway tour of the plant that ends with a 1.5-kilometre panoramic view of both the surrounding mountains and the 66,000-square-metre roofscape that will be geared to producing actual renewable energy," he told Dezeen.
The circular structure will encompass the entire plant, including auxiliary buildings - the aim was to keep the facility as compact as possible.
The entrance will be a snaking ramp that starts from a landscaped park and winds up between a pair of smokestacks.

love that spacey mission control beep at the intro!
To incinerate 1/3 of Shenzhen's waste to generate energy in a world class architecture. Love the idea.
I've heard that doing this could actually be extremely beneficial assuming that greenhouse gases matter to you. Because it'd basically just be recycling greenhouse gases.
I think it'd be useful to cut down on landfill use.
It is indeed, and on top of reducing co2 emmisions, you could potentially extract the heat produced in this plant in order to heat surrounding homes.
This technology is not new. I work for a company that has been doing this for 40 years.

Shenzhen really proving to be the cyberpunk metropolis we all know it is. They made a garbage fire look like an Apple campus
Its a great work of art to have a piece of massive conversion of the unwanted turned into assets of preservation as well as continuity of life. It speaks goals of creation, that makes everything self sufficient in massive amounts, irreplaceable.
incredible video
This looks like a relatively complex project. We hope they are using BIM processes for the all the coordination of the systems and building fabric!
+InteliBuild LFTR's are the solution to the energy problem(and multiple other major
problems). They are safe, they are cheap, they are reliable, they are
relatively simple so they can be made small, they can be made big, they
can be made on an assembly line, their primary energy source can be
found just about anywhere that there is dirt, they eat pre-existing
nuclear waste, their waste heat is perfect for desalinating sea water,
they are surprisingly self regulating AND walk away safe, and to top it
all off they produce BISMUTH-213 which is basically gods way of bitch
smacking cancer in the face. The are two major things holding this
technology back:
1: The pre-existing industries not wanting to get put out of business
and
2: Peoples fear of the word nuclear. And spoiler alert, solar energy is
nuclear energy so if you believe in solar power you believe in nuclear
power. Chances are you just don't believe in the widely used
Pressurized Water Reactor nuclear energy technology because let's be
honest, it is an extraordinarily complicated, dangerous, and frankly
stupid way to do nuclear energy that was literally only focused on and
initially developed because the U.S. government wanted to make Nuclear
Bombs. Which is fucked up and ridiculous so it totally makes sense that
people wouldn't want to support that
What you might not know is that the same guy (Alvin Weinberg) that
created the Pressurized Water Reactor also created the Liquid Flouride
Thorium Reactor which bypasses all of the major problems and dangers of
PWRs mainly because it operates as a liquid at low pressures. He tried
to get the government to switch and was particularly well suited to
make the suggestion considering he created both the reactors but long
story short is they were already invested in the other reactors and
were more interested in blowing shit up and making money than they were
with providing the world with clean abundant safe basically free
energy and making peace so they told him to fuck off and fired him.
*Note: When I say free energy in this context I am referring to the fact
that the main ingredient in LFTRs, Thorium, is dug up and thrown away
as garbage by companies all over the world every day because they don't
know any better. And when i say they I mean pretty much every body but
China, China has been stockpiling this shit for years and is now going
gung ho with LFTR's so don't be surprised if we start buying all our
energy from them pretty soon too.
People, do some research - haven't any of you heard of Gen IV reactors?
For example, the Integral Molten Salt Reactor or IMSR (made in Canada)
is a completely different kind of reactor which:
1. Cannot melt down, as the fuel/salt mix is already in a molten state
2. Creates extremely small amounts of waste, which are only radioactive
for a couple hundred years (instead of 20,000!)
3. Can use spent Uranium as a fuel - or Thorium, which is as plentiful
as lead, and safe enough to hold in your hand
4. Does not create usable bomb-making material (Plutonium) - so no
proliferation problems
5. Is much smaller and less expensive than the huge outdated reactors in
use all over the place
6. Is completely walk-away safe - so worst case scenario is that the
plant shuts down and cools off by itself
... and many many more benefits.
Now that's more like it
Bravo
Now this is truly a great idea. How long with this take to finish though?
This one will be finished by the end of this year, and there are 3 other big ones under construction just in Shenzhen.
What is the name of this project and where is its location
Wonderful! What is the capacity of handling waste/garbage per day? Who is the supplier of the machinery? What is the Budget cos of the project Including land?
5.200 t per day.
geothermal power plant all over
safety first
knowledge and splendour
there are many including various themed libraries
Better be underground and restore the forest above.
What is name of project
Good video, but change the song.
it is useful for training
looking for investors to build a site in New York to start off doing 3000 tons per day and increasing to do 12000 tons per day with no incineration or greenhouse gases. The site in this video will produce enormous carbon emissions.
Viewpoint is everything. Who hasn't wondered up a use for all that carbon produced by the burning? Trap it, re-purpose it, and go on about our business.
But less emissions than if it went to a landfill... And it will provide energy from the burnging as well as the solar panels that will help provide clean energy
Did u finish ur project?
Intresting concept taylor made as Project for one specific reality...I would like to acknowledge more information about the project...it is possible?
how could we buy it? how can we contact to you?
What do you want to buy?
@@jturlais I want to buy waste to energy plant manufacturing
????? looks interesting but over my head.
Just another incineration plant?
No because it recycles the fumes aswell
The worlds biggest though... And it does new things - like use energy from the incineration to power the city and the roof is full of solar panels which will also power the city
What is the title for the song?
we wanna know the name of the song
