This work investigates the thermodynamic feasibility of the integration of a cryogenic Air Separation unit (ASU) with a Waste-to-Energy (WtE) power plant in order to enhance the combustion with an oxygen enriched air flow. The main benefit of using oxygen enrichment in an incineration system is repr...
