Abstract :
An on-line heating value sensor which is used to monitor the low heating value of municipal solid waste (MSW) is introduced in this paper. A model based on the mass balance and energy balance is used together with the concentration measurements in the flue gas to calculate on-line the heating value of the waste. This heating value sensor is installed in a MSW power plant. It shows that the sensor works well and supplies more process information for operators.
