Wastes are defined as a new energy and desired to utilize an energy source beneficially. The authors present a waste incineration and power generation system constructed by an incinerator and a Stirling engine generator. The incinerator has a maximum incineration capacity of 49kg/h and is cooled by circulating water in the side walls in order to enable a long life and supply heat by a hot water. The Stirling engine generator is built up as a 2 piston type engine with driving mechanism including a PM synchronous generator. It is installed in a secondary combustion chamber of the incinerator and heated by combustion gas and an auxiliary kerosene burner. This paper discribes the examination results of the system using firewoods of a cherry tree and a black locust as fuel. The power generation of 2kW and the heat supply capacity of 33kW are obtained by average.
