Options and Opportunities for Waste to Energy Technologies NNFCC Options and opportunities for waste to energy technologies Dr Geraint Evans Head of Biofuels and Bioenergy NNFCC NNFCC Today’s presentation – UK W2E Scene • Waste available • Policy – focus on MSW/C&I • Waste to energy – Mass burn incineration – Advanced thermal processes – gasification • Power • Heat • Fuels – Biochemical processes NNFCC UK waste arisings, million tonnes/year (2008) Northern England Wales Scotland Total Ireland MSW 28.5 1.8 3 1.1 34.4 C&I waste 67.9 5.3 7.8 1.6 82.6 C&D waste 89.6 12.2 11.8 5 118.6 Total 186 19.3 22.6 7.7 235.6 • About half goes to landfill • Landfilling will decline over next decade but will still be in use NNFCC As electrical power equivalent in GWe, assuming 25% conversion efficiency Northern England Wales Scotland Total Ireland MSW 2.1 0.1 0.2 0.1 2.6 C&I waste 5.0 0.4 0.6 0.1 6.1 C&D 2.3 0.3 0.3 0.1 3.0 waste Total 9.4 0.8 1.1 0.3 11.7 • Compare against: – Drax – 4 GWe; 7% of UK power supply – Air Products IGCC – 50 MWe – Typical mass burn incineration plant – 25 MWe NNFCC Bioenergy Strategy - April 2012 • Sets out the Governments approach to ensuring that the benefits from bioenergy are secured. • Four principles ensure: – Looking out to 2050, genuine carbon reductions are achieved – Bioenergy is cost effective – Regular assessment of potential unintended consequences • Uncertainty is not sufficient to justify inaction. Lower risk pathways have been identified: – Use of wastes – Heat (direct biomass and biomethane) – Transport, in particular advanced biofuels – Electricity, primarily coal conversion but also CHP – longer term, CCS becomes important. NNFCC Doing the right thing • Defra Waste Review – Get the most energy out of residual waste and not the most waste into energy recovery • Waste incineration directive (WID) – The WID places strict conditions and minimum technical requirements on operators • Waste hierarchy – Will limit available waste NNFCC Energy from waste options Mass burn MRF MBT Thermal Gasification MHT Pyrolysis RDF Waste Treatment SRF RRBF Composting Biological AD Sugars fermentation NNFCC Combustion converts the chemical energy in the waste into heat; gasification and pyrolysis convert the chemical energy in the waste into chemical energy in a gaseous (or liquid) form. NNFCC NNFCC NNFCC Key features • Strict compliance with WID – but, poor image; challenging planning • Large scale (250-300 kT/yr) - economics driven • Typically 23% efficient although latest plants quoting 27% – Efficiency will drop if insufficient feed material or if feed too wet kT/yr MWe Name Location 1 EFW NNFCC850 70 Viridor/Ineos/John Laing CHP (plus 51 Runcorn MWth) 2 EFW 670 95 Peel Environmental Ince Ltd Cheshire 3 EFW 585 66 Cory Environmental Riverside EFW London 4 EFW 675 51 London Waste Ltd Edmonton 5 EFW 500 51 Allington Quarry Kent 6 EFW 500 38 Kent Enviropower Ltd Maidstone 7 EFW 488 37 South East London CHPr Limited Lewisham 8 EFW 410 37 Lakeside Energy From Waste Limited Colnbrook, Slough 9 EFW 300 32 Sita London 10 EFW 420 31 Selchp Middlesex 11 EFW 400 30 Tyseley Waste Disposal Ltd Birmingham 12 EFW 350 30 Viridor, Trident Park Cardiff 13 EFW 280 26 Peel Environment CHP North Yorkshire 14 EFW 300 26 Biffa Skelton Grange Leeds 15 EFW 300 25 Project E2R (Veolia for Staffs CC) Staffordshire 16 EFW 300 24 Oxford waste partnership Oxfordshire 17 EFW 315 24 Coventry/Solihull Waste Disp Co Ltd Coventry 18 EFW 245 23 MVV Umwelt Plymouth waste CHP Plymouth 19 EFW 300 22 FCC Environment Buckinghamshire 20 EFW 300 21 Newhurst EFW, Biffa Leicestershire 21 EFW 275 20 Norfolk PFI EFW Norfolk 22 EFW 260 20 WasteNotts (Reclamation) Ltd Nottingham 23 EFW 250 20 Bogmoor Road, Peel Environmental Ltd Glasgow 24 EFW 263 20 SITA Tees Valley Limited Billingham, Teesside NNFCC 11.5 MT waste; 1,000 MWe.

NNFCC Individual technologies are commercially available, particularly the applications. More work is needed to prove the gasification step, to develop enhanced gas clean up for the more advanced applications. The key risks are at the interfaces. Gas cleaning cleaning Gas /polishing and conditioning Syngas All applications are proven but not for Gasification cleaning & biomass – boilers and engines are conditioning most viable in near term NNFCC Gasification to power is emerging with about 800 MWe of projects. Efficiencies are in the range 18-33% with potential to increase towards 40%. Most projects use steam; where power is produced using an engine or turbine, the gasifiers are either downdraft or use plasma treatment in some way NNFCC ETI Waste to Energy Demonstrator • Royal Dahlman leads consortium to win a contract from the ETI to build a 7 MWe combined cycle (IGCC) power plant incorporating a gas turbine – MILENA indirect gasifier with OLGA syngas cleanup technology • Multi feedstock (RDF/SRF/wood) • Ongoing – Pilot plant testing – Process design – Site development • Permitting • Planning NNFCC Gasification and heat - bioSNG air tars Char natural combustion Syngas gas network C0 CH4 Gasification H 2 cooling & Methanation Purification cleaning H2 O (steam) H2 O CO2 heat wood (steam) UK electrical grid water Dual gasifier with steam, Syngas cleaning Methanation at Purification and indirect heating from to remove tars high pressure, with to ensure char combustion.

  • Science and Technology in Society (SATIS) Book 6
    , SCIENCE & 1 - TECHNOLOGY 0 IN SOCIETY ~ • • • ABOUT SATIS Science and Technology in Society units are designed to be used in conjunction with conventional science courses, particularly those leading to GCSE examinations. Each unit has links to major science topics as well as exploring important social and technological applications and issues. The units are self-contained and generally require about 2 periods (around 75 minutes) of classroom time. Each unit comprises Teachers' Notes (blue sheets) and Students' materials (white sheets). Full guidance on use is given in the Teachers' Notes accompanying each unit, which also include background information and suggest further resources. Each SATIS book contains ten units. The units are numbered in a system giving the number of the book followed by the number of the unit within that book. Thus the first unit in the first SATIS book is numbered 10l. In addition to the SATIS books, a general Teacher's Guide to the project is available, giving guidance on some of the teaching techniques involved as well as ideas for further activities. Many people from schools, universities,. industry and the professions have contributed to the writing, development and trials of the SATIS project. A full list of contributors appears in the Teachers' Guide. The material which follows may be reproduced without infringing copyright provided reproduction isfor student use only. The permission of the publishers must be obtained before reproducing the material for any other purpose. First published 1986 by The Association

Infrastructure planning - legislative, policy and wider context 5 4. Methodology 8 5. Scoping 9 6. Baseline infrastructure assessments 12 7. Infrastructure delivery schedule 45 Appendix A Housing allocations 59 Appendix B Mobile telecommunications sites in Middlesbrough 61 2 1. Introduction 1.1 Produced in line with national planning policy (see paragraphs 3.2 - 3.4 for more details), this Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) provides details of infrastructure needed to support future growth as a result of the Local Plan - Housing, including the type, timing and potential costs of infrastructure. 1.2 The IDP is intended to be a 'living' document, with its content monitored on a regular basis (in all likelihood alongside the Local Plan Annual Monitoring Report [AMR]) and updated as appropriate, in order to reflect changing circumstances, including when any new Local Development Documents (LDDs) are produced as part of the overarching Local Plan. To remain up-to-date, a flow of information from (internal [i.e. Council) and external) service providers to the Planning Policy team will be required on a regular basis. 1.3 The IDP does not include every infrastructure project planned in Middlesbrough or provide a list of planning obligations; it only includes those that will help to deliver the development (i.e. housing) proposed by the Local Plan - Housing or contribute towards the creation of sustainable communities. It does, however, identify areas where gaps in provision exist or are likely to exist over the plan period.
