A waste-to-energy incineration system, in which the amount and heat value of exhaust gas largely changes in long and short periods, comprises an incinerator for burning waste, a boiler in the incinerator for generating steam with exhaust heat generated by the incinerator, a superheater for superheating steam generated in the boiler, a steam turbine driven by steam superheated by the superheater, a generator driven by the steam turbine, a fuel reformer for reforming source fuel, and a combustor burning fuel gas reformed by the fuel reformer and at least a part of exhaust gas led from the incinerator which is able to stably decompose generated dioxin in waste incineration exhaust gas.

A waste-to-energy incineration system, in which the amount and the heat value of exhaust gas changes during operation, includes an incinerator for burning waste, a boiler in the incinerator for generating steam with exhaust heat generated by the incinerator, and a superheater for superheating steam generated in the boiler. A steam turbine is provided which is driven by steam superheated by the superheater and a generator is driven by the steam turbine. A fuel reformer is provided for reforming source fuel. A combustor burning fuel gas reformed by the fuel reformer and at least a part of exhaust gas fed from the incinerator is provided which decomposes generated dioxin in waste incineration exhaust gas.
