Project Feasibility Study in Infectious Waste Incinerating Service Business by Using Controlled Air Incinerator

Abstract

The objective of research is to study project feasibility study for investment infectious waste incinerating service business by using controlled Air Incinerator which is predominately concerned with marketing, manufacturing/engineering, management, environment, and financial analysis. Marketing feasibility study shows that there exists a heavy demand for infectious waste. As a result, the number of infectious waste incinerators in Thailand is not sufficient to satisfy the demand. In addition, the new environment law prohibits every incinerator form making air pollution, so demand of infectious wasted incinerating service business seems to be rapidly growing. Based on engineering feasibility study, the outcome shows that Wong Chan at Rayong Province is the most appropriate location. The necessary technology is the incinerator technology for infectious wastes, together with the facilities for air pollution control and automatic feeding system, with design capacity of about 2.5 tons per day. This infectious wasts incinerating plant uses only 40 employees to operate this task. In addition, financial feasibility study indicates that the investment capital is 20.7 million baht, the pay back period is 4 years and IRR is 39% so this project is considered as very good to invest. Besides, the environmental feasibility study demonstrates that this project does not deteriorate the environment.
