More than 1100 HZI grates have been built globally, with capacities ranging from 4 to up to 50 tonnes per hour.
The air- or water-cooled grate with its robust design has proven to be very reliable, and is the most favourable solution in terms of capital and maintenance costs. For waste with higher calorific values, water-cooled grate bars ensure increased lifetime.
On the grate, the waste is combusted in accordance with strict regulatory requirements governing residual total organic carbon (TOC) content in the resulting bottom ash.
The element-based design allows precise adjustment of airflow and waste transport by both lane and zone. This makes the grate ideal for getting equipped with an advanced combustion control system.
