ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a domical structure capable of enclosing the majority of operational and integrating many of the structural elements of a waste-to-energy, waste processing or other combustion facility. The domical structure according to the present invention improves the aesthetic appearance of the facility by enclosing the majority of the machinery, equipment, activities and chimney from outside view. The domical structure also reduces the cost of construction and operation by reducing the support structure and improving lighting and climate control. The domical structure according to the present invention also includes means for easily transferring waste and materials between different areas or processing portions of a waste-to-energy facility and for providing an aerodynamic exterior surface that allows for the integration of an aerodynamic cupola and flue assembly which in total, can reduce wakes and downwash effects while maintaining plume rise and flue gas dispersion characteristics associated with wind patterns found in the wake of tall GEP chimneys and cubicle structures.
