Kualiti Alam with the assistance of its Danish collaborator, Niras A/S has jointly designed an incinerator model incorporating the solutions to problems encountered during the course of the company’s experience in operating its rotary kiln incinerator since 1998. The Kualiti Alam Modular Incinerator or KAMI is the answer to many developing countries for an incineration facility that deals with municipal, medical and hazardous waste and curb environmental pollution. This new and improved plant is designed and built on the principles of:

• Ability to treat a wide variety of waste
• Higher Productivity and efficiency
• Lower operation and maintenance cost
• Dry scrubbing of flue gas cleaning system and
• Emission standards in compliance with EU directive

The KAMI plant has a nominal capacity of 10,000 tonnes capacity per year or 33 tonnes per day. The creative design of this plant has also managed to reduce operational cost significantly compared to Kualiti Alam’s existing incinerator.
