Stage System

In evaluating the environmental efficiency analysis of Chinese industry systems, data envelopment analysis (DEA) has been a popular method. However, the production system is often treated as a black box in conventional DEA models. This study considers the internal structure of the production system to evaluate the environmental efficiency, which is characterized as a two-stage system, i.e., production subsystem and pollutant treatment subsystem. And, in reality, some subsystems in two-stage production systems are not equally important, and this kind of two-stage systems usually has the feature that one subsystem dominates the other. Thus, we consider the leader and follower relationship in the environmental efficiency analysis. A new non-cooperative two-stage DEA model considering undesirable intermediates and undesirable outputs is proposed to calculate the environmental efficiency. The proposed method is then applied to 30 regional industry systems of China in the year 2010. Thus, each DMU’s environmental efficiencies for the overall system as well as both subsystems could be analyzed by the proposed approach. More accurate information could be provided for environmental management.

The Stability

The stability and operational performance of single stage digestion with and without liquor recycle and two stage digestion were assessed using a mixture of paper and wood as the digestion substrate. Attempts to maintain stable digestion in both single stage reactors were unsuccessful due to the inherently low natural buffering capacity exhibited; this resulted in a rapid souring of the reactor due to unbuffered volatile fatty acid (VFA) accumulation. The use of lime to control pH was unsatisfactory due to interference with the carbonate/bicarbonate equilibrium resulting in wide oscillations in the control parameter. The two stage system overcame the pH stability problems allowing stable operation for a period of 200 days without any requirement for pH control; this was attributed to the rapid flushing of VFA from the first stage reactor into the second stage, where efficient conversion to methane was established. Reactor performance was judged to be satisfactory with the breakdown of 53% of influent volatile solids. It was concluded that the reactor configuration of the two stage system offers the potential for the treatment of cellulosic wastes with a sub-optimal carbon to nitrogen ratio for conventional digestion.

Metallurgical production associates with such processes as crushing, drying and pneumatic transportation of raw materials, roasting, melting etc., in the process of which hard particles and harmful gaseous components are emitted into atmosphere. At pneumatic transportation of raw materials and sand, their concentration in the atmosphere as a rule exceeds maximum permissible concentrations. Existing facilities of dusty flows cleaning in some cases don’t ensure sanitary norms ГН 2.1.6.3492‒17. Technical solutions  proposed  to  clean  gases  in  a  centrifugal  filter,  a  facility  of  complex  gas  cleaning – cyclo-filter and two-stage  system  of high-concentrated gas-dust flows cleaning. Description of the centrifugal filter, cyclo-filter, two-stage facility of gas cleaning design presented. The facility comprises centrifugal filter and ceramic pulse filter. Industrial tests of the centrifugal filter ЦФ2-6-1 under conditions of a system of pneumatic transportation of sand established, that efficiency of gas-dust flows cleaning of sand particles in a  six-channel  filter  can  reach 98.65%.  Application of  two-stage  system  of  gas  cleaning  comprising  centrifugal  filter  and  ceramic pulse filter ФКИ enables to reach residual hard particles concentration at the exit of such a facility of 5 mg/m3, having initial dust level of 127878 mg/m3. Application of such a complex two-stage cleaning facility allows to reach values of 0.1 of maximum permissible concentrations near the source of emissions.

The aim of the study was to present the possibility of reducing the emission of HCl to the atmosphere and the possibility of limiting the formation of PCDD/F in the technologies of incineration of waste fuels and incineration of animal waste. Waste fuel and animal biomass were burned in a two-stage system i.e.: Io-gasification and IIo-combustion of gas products of gasification. As part of the implementation, the reduction of HCl emissions to air was investigated when Ca(OH)2 was added as an additive to the fuel from waste. Ca(OH)2 bonded HCl releasing into the gas space in the combustion process. HCl binding in the combustion chamber not only limited its emission to the atmosphere. Its elimination also limited the possibility of creating PCDD/F. In case of animal waste, HCl was captured with CaO produced from the decomposition of bone material (hydroxyapatite). The efficiency of this process was low. It was thus necessary to remove it in the built-in exhaust purification plant.
