The technology has been in
use since the 1920’s but now is economically viable.
The system turns MSW
(municipal solid waste), plastic, tires, medical waste, waste oil and
lubricants, cardboard, paper, wood, animal waste, essentially anything
with a carbon foot print into a gas that can be ignited in a steam
turbine to generate electricity or the gas can be refined into other
products. The stack emissions are within the United States and European
standards. The vitreous material that remains can be used in road
construction and maintenance.
The system is scalable.
Gasifing MSW, a 150-ton a day unit will produce net 2.4 Mega
Watts of electricity on an ongoing basis. Every Mega watt will
power 1000 + - US homes on an ongoing 24 hour basis.
The energy output of the
system increases dramatically with the use of the higher BTU
materials like tires and plastic. Depending on the electrical rate charged
the system will pay for itself in about one and a half to three
years depending on the feedstock and what the power company will pay.
The system has a twenty-year life span.
A recap of the Benefits
of Garbage Gasification:
1. Gasification
will take anything with a carbon footprint. This would include all
municipal solid waste (MSW), medical waste, tires, plastic, oil, cardboard
etc.
2. Contaminated
soil can also be re-claimed by going through the gasification process.
3. The resulting gases
from the gasification process can be used to manufacture: electricity
(the cheapest to produce), diesel, propane, natural gas, jet fuel
etc.
4. Heavy metals are
collected in the chamber and can be resold for industrial use..
5. Anything not gasified
(metal, glass, etc.) is recycled.
6.. The remaining
vitreous material, after gasification, is non-toxic. It is
approved for using in highway construction and road maintenance, thereby
recycling the residue.
7. Because of the
complete gasification of the waste, there are no health and/or
liability issues.
8. The by-product
that comes out of the stack is CO-2 and the emissions fall well
within U.S EPA and European standards.
9. The CO-2 could
be recycled into algae ponds for additional revenue r possible new
industries/investment opportunities, etc.
10. Many new jobs
could be created, both relating directly to operation of the
gasifier, and additionally to the auxiliary businesses, services
created by the new industry.
11. Perhaps the
biggest advantage to the gasification process is that it eliminates the
garbage/waste forever – it is not just tucked out of sight, or buried in a
big hole. As the world’s population continues to grow, so does the
waste/garbage problem. Gasification is an excellent solution.
