Wo Hop Shek Crematorium, Fanling, Hong Kong (Under Construction)
Year of Award: 2019
Scope of Services:
- Cremators and Emission Control System
Project Description:
This is an expansion project to provide two new cremators for commissioning in 2023, adding about 3800 cremation sessions per annum.
The design and operation of these new cremators will be fully computerised, using advanced technologies. It will be installed with an advanced flue gas filtering system to process and filter out waste gases and particles generated during the combustion process, and will also be fitted with a high temperature secondary combustion chamber to ensure completion of combustion during the cremation process.
The above design was adopted for the new cremators at other cremator reprovisioning projects completed in recent years, such as Cape Collinson Crematorium. It has proven effective in reducing the emission of particles/waste gases, dark smoke and mercury as well as meeting the statutory environmental standards. The new cremators will be equipped with a computer system to record their emissions. The system is connected to EPD for real-time and comprehensive monitoring to ensure that waste gas emissions are in full compliance with the air quality standards.
