Wastes are defined as a new energy and desired to utilize an energy source beneficially. The authors pay attention to better utilization of wastes, which is a method to convert wastes into energy, and present a waste incineration and power generation system built up of an incinerator and a Stirling engine generator. The system has a maximum incineration capacity of 49kg/h and power generation of 10kW. The incinerator is cooled by circulating water in order to enable a long life and supply heat by a hot water or air flow. The Stirling engine is constructed as a four cylinder double-acting type and has a built-in generator. The Stirling engine generator is installed in a secondary combustion space. An auxiliary kerosene burner enables the Stirling engine to generate electricity continuously. The waste incineration and power generation system is suitable for works, housebreakers, farms and so on, because of waste management and energy cost reduction. Also it is effective in environmental preservation and saving energy.
