Project Overview

Xiongan New Area, as one of the first national "Zero-Waste City" pilot zones, faces three core challenges in solid waste management amid rapid urbanization: first, the continuous growth of waste volume requiring guaranteed centralized treatment capacity; second, limited land resources necessitating the avoidance of the "NIMBY effect" associated with traditional waste treatment facilities; third, the imperative to pursue green and low-carbon development while improving resource utilization efficiency.

Under the traditional model, household waste, kitchen waste, sludge, medical waste, and other solid waste streams were treated separately through independent facilities, leading to issues such as high investment, large land occupation, high operational costs, and significant secondary pollution risks, while also struggling to gain public acceptance. This approach could no longer meet the needs of Xiongan New Area's high-quality construction and green low-carbon development.

Against this backdrop, the project was initiated to explore a new integrated, efficient, low-carbon, and harmonious solid waste treatment model. It addresses the NIMBY issue through underground de-industrialized design, achieves resource circulation and cost reduction through deep synergy among multiple waste streams, ensures safe and stable operation through intelligent management, and ultimately realizes a win-win situation across environmental, economic, and social benefits.

项目背景

雄安新区作为国家首批“无废城市”试点,在快速城市化进程中面临固废处理的核心挑战:一是垃圾量持续增长,需保障集中处置能力;二是土地资源紧张,需规避传统垃圾处理设施的“邻避效应”;三是必须践行绿色低碳,提升资源利用率。

传统模式下,生活垃圾、厨余垃圾、污泥、医疗废物等各类固废独立建设处理设施,存在投资大、占地多、运营成本高、二次污染风险突出等问题,且难以获得公众认可,已无法满足雄安新区高质量建设与绿色低碳发展的现实需要。

在此背景下,项目启动建设,旨在探索一种集约、高效、低碳、和谐的固废综合处理新模式。通过地下式去工业化设计解决邻避问题,通过多类固废深度协同实现资源循环与降本增效,通过智能化管理保障安全稳定运行,最终实现环境、经济与社会效益的多元共赢格局。

 

Project Implementation

The project is implemented across five dimensions: spatial restructuring, co-processing, technological breakthroughs, smart management, and public advocacy.

1. Spatial Restructuring: Underground De-industrialized Design

To address the "NIMBY effect," the project adopts an underground hidden layout. The main plant and transportation tunnels are entirely placed underground (deepest point at -27.5m), with a 90,000 m² ecological country park and a 120m observation tower built above ground. A fully enclosed negative pressure system prevents odor leakage, transforming "environmental burden" into "ecological resources" and achieving harmonious coexistence between the facility and the city. This phase was led by the project design team and construction contractor, with construction completed and landscape maintenance ongoing.

2. Co-processing: Deep Circulation of Multi-source Solid Waste

To address the low resource utilization rate of traditional models, the project co-constructs facilities for household waste incineration (2,250 t/d), food waste (300 t/d), sludge (300 t/d), feces (300 t/d), and medical waste (10 t/d). Through shared facilities and technological synergy, waste is transformed into valuable resources: incineration energy is converted into clean energy such as electricity and heat; wastewater is treated and recycled as cooling water; and incineration slag is processed into building materials. This initiative, implemented by the operations management team, achieves a "1+1>2" scale effect.

3. Technological Breakthroughs: Ultra-low Emission Xiongan Standard

To ensure environmental safety, a full-process combined flue gas treatment process is adopted, including "in-furnace dry method + SNCR denitrification + cooling tower + dry method + activated carbon injection + bag filter + wet scrubbing + SCR denitrification + flue gas de-whitening." The design emission standards are stricter than both national and EU standards (e.g., dioxins at 50% of the national standard, NOx at 20%). Through meticulous commissioning and maintenance, the technical team ensures real-time compliance and upload of emission data since commissioning, achieving near-zero emissions.

4. Smart Management: Digital and Refined Operations

The project integrates four major smart systems: the intelligent waste bunker system, intelligent combustion control system, intelligent security system, and turbine one-key start-stop system. The intelligent waste bunker system uses cameras and thermal imaging to analyze waste fermentation in real time and enable automatic grabbing. The intelligent combustion control system automates variables such as feeding, air supply, and stirring frequency, responding in real time to furnace combustion conditions and optimizing combustion parameters to effectively improve combustion stability and thermal efficiency. The intelligent security system provides 24/7 real-time monitoring and early warning of violations, unauthorized access, and equipment anomalies through video surveillance, comprehensively enhancing on-site safety management. The turbine one-key start-stop system automates the entire process from cold start to normal operation, significantly improving operational efficiency and reliability. The coordinated operation of these four smart systems creates a full-process intelligent closed loop from waste intake to combustion power generation to safety control, providing solid technical support for the project's safe, stable, efficient, and low-carbon operation.

5. Public Advocacy: Building a Science Education Base

To promote green concepts, a 2,500 m² science education base has been established within the project, divided into a front exhibition area, a knowledge corridor, and an interactive zone. Equipped with sand tables, VR interactive devices, waste sorting games, and other facilities, the base operates under a free admission policy. It offers "tour + explanation + interaction + experience" educational activities for the public and student groups, integrating ecological education into the daily operations of the space.
