Energy Recovery from Municipal Waste Development Program for Idaho Falls, Idaho Final Report
Phase I of a development program to design, build, and operate a demonstration facility to show that fluidized-bed technology is a viable means to recover resources from municipal wastes in Idaho Falls is described. The following tasks are described in detail: (a) evaluation of the energy market of Idaho Falls to identify potential customers for recovered energy and to determine what form of energy would be economically viable, (b) evaluation of the MSW of Idaho Falls, determining its approximate composition, heating value, production rates, and seasonal variations; (c) development of a resource recovery facility concept that will be economically attractive to the city and technically feasible; and (d) evaluation of such topics as zoning, legal limitations, and environmental aspects of the facility to determine its compatibility with the city of Idaho Falls. Information in the appendices includes: population projections; responses to energy consumption survey; city weighing data (municipal solid waste); public works progress reports; steam revenue calculations; and legal memorandum on municipal solid wastes.
