The Preliminary Level modeling is based on the basic information and data provided by the Applicant/Owner/Beneficiary by filling the „Basic Data Filling Form”
The modelling provides the basic technological and financial data for the plant. The modeling system is the same as controls and operates the system of the equipments applied in the plant. This is why we are able to know all significant operating parameters that helps the decision makers to decide if the plant can be operated financially viable way or not. This very important issue is the first one before the decision is made and through the modeling several additional issues and profit centers can be taken into consideration, like the agricultural, green house, fishery or industrial subsystems based on the waste heat of the plant.
The file below shows a sample modeling of a 500 TPD (Ton Per Day) capacity plant and its apropriate operating parameters.

The Financial viability depends on not only the technical parameters but the financial environment and the selling prices of the end priducts, but it is influenced by several other income and cost issues related to the plant and the project. . The ROI, the Cash Flow for the period of total repayment and sveral other significant financial details can be calculated through the financial model of the plant and the project. The accuracy of this modeling depends on the accuracy of the basic data used in the modeling and provided by the owner or beneficiary.
Unfortunately the MSW is not analised chemically before it is landfilled, maximum the physical “sorting “analysis is done, hence we do not know the results of the Proximate and Ultimate Chemical Analysis, which are very important because both the modeling and the operating are based on the “atomic level balancing”, which is based on the above chemical analysis.
