Outstanding features of Hitachi Zosen (Hitz) (1)
No. Criteria Detail 1 Technology
origin, technology owner
- Hitachi Zosen is an technology owner (a globally leading Engineering & Manufacturing company for WTE system)
- Long history and proven technology from both European and Japan: The original technology has been developed from since 1930s in Switzerland. The technology has been transferred and developed in Japan since 1960s. ( Japanese technology, EU technology)
2 Proven technology
- This reliable technology has been supplied and accepted widely in worldwide and almost continents, especially in Asian region: Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea, India, Vietnam, etc.
- High track record in global and Asia (As of 6/2020, Hitz has 990 Waste Thermal Treatment plants located at almost continents; in which 685 plants in Asia).
- Hitz’s WTE technology has good adaptability of various wastes and fluctuation of waste quality (calorific value): pre-treatment / sorting is not required.
Outstanding features of Hitachi Zosen (Hitz) (2)
No. Criteria Detail3 Long-term and stable operation
Long-term and stable O&M
- More than 60-year experience of O&M Control system
- On-site control system: combines distributed control system and centralized control system with integrating auto and semi-auto control systems.
- Remote operation assistance system: The real-time data of the WTE in Vietnam is remotely connected to Hitz’s headquarter (Osaka) and engineering office in Vietnam therefore the plant can timely receive the assistance for daily operation or when facing the troubles during the operation.
- This system not only supports the plant operating stability and effectively, prevents incidents or risks but also reduces the O&M cost.

ethanation system (WTM system)
WTM System Features
• Not using dilution water means that the fermentation tank can be compact and only a small amount of
energy is required for heating.
• High temperature solubilization means improved degradation rates for solids. It also achieves a high
organic matter decomposition rate (85%).
• Using medium temperature methane fermentation, which is highly resistant to ammonia inhibition, allows it
to handle a wide range of raw garbage qualities.

Hitz Kompogas system
A reference (Kyoto, Japan)
Capacity: 60 TPD (30 TPD x 2 lines)
Biogas Engine Power Outline: 1,000 kW
Feeding waste: Organic Fraction of Municipal solid waste
Fermenter of the pilot plant: 3t/d
Features of the Hitz Kompogas System
• Can convert fermentation residue into compost as well as convert raw waste into biogas.
• The system was accredited by the Japan Waste Management Association in 2001 as a waste methane
fermentation system in line with technical inspection and verification procedures.
2. Power conversion:
Power-to-Gas (PtG) system
• Renewable energy varies by means of condition of wind and hours of daylight temporally/seasonally. While, Energy storage is required for stable use of power generated from renewable energy => “Power to gas” • Power to Gas (PtG): Renewable electricity convert to gas fuel by water electrolysis (and methanation) for
energy storage. European countries have been carried out widely spreading of PtG.
- Hydrogen generation by water electrolysis (Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolysis): using renewable energies
- Methanation: by chemical reaction between renewable energy sourced hydrogen and CO2
