Jenbacher type 3

Jenbacher gas engines

efficient, durable, reliable

Long service intervals, maintenance-friendly engine design and low fuel consumption ensure maximum efficiency in our type 3 engines. Optimized components prolong service life even when using non-pipeline gases such as landfill gas. The type 3 stands out in its 500 to 1,100 kW power range due to its technical maturity and high degree of reliability.

key technical data

descriptor

Fuel.............................................Landfill gas

Engine type.....................3xJMC312 GS-L.L

Electrical output.............................. 1,803 kW

Thermal output...............................2,241 kW

Every system has its own landfill gas feeder line and exhaust gas treatment line. The generated electricity is used on-site, excess power is fed into the public grid. The employment of the CL.AIR8 system ensures the purification of the exhaust gas to meet stringent Italian emission requirements. As a special feature, at this plant the thermal energy is used for landfill leachate treatment, as well as for greenhouse heating.

to January 2002

In Ecoparc I, organic waste is processed into biogas, which serves as energy source for our gas engines. The generated electricity is used on-site as well as fed into the public power grid. A portion of the thermal energy is used as process heat in the digesters, and the excess heat is bled off in the air coolers.
