Abstract

This study develops a framework for an assessment of the integrated processing of various types of waste in a single waste-to-energy (W2E) facility. The FUNdamental ENgineering PrinciplEs-based model for Estimation of Cost of Energy from Biomass and Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) (FUNNEL-Cost-Bio-waste) was developed and used to assess the conversion of MSW, agricultural residue, forest residue, and waste heat to electricity via gasification. A geographic information systems (GIS)-based model was developed to estimate the availability of wastes at collection points and the transportation distances to the facility. A case study for Alberta (Canada) was conducted to assess the techno-economic feasibility of a 199 MW gasification-based facility. Depending on whether one or two waste heat sources are used for drying MSW, internal rates of return and the costs of generating electricity were estimated to be 11.18 % and 8.09 % and US $21.90/MWh and US $33.23/MWh, respectively. This information can be used for investment decision-making.

开发用于评估生物质、废热和MSW综合废物发电设施的数据密集型技术经济模型

本研究开发了一个框架，用于评估单个废物转化能源（W2E）设施中各种类型废物的综合处理。开发了基于FUNdamental工程原理的生物质和城市固体废物（MSW）能源成本估算模型（FUNNEL成本-生物废物），并用于评估MSW、农业残渣、森林残渣和废热通过气化转化为电力的情况。开发了一个基于地理信息系统的模型来估计收集点的废物可用性和到设施的运输距离。对阿尔伯塔省（加拿大）进行了一项案例研究，以评估199兆瓦气化设施的技术经济可行性。根据是否使用一个或两个废热源干燥MSW，内部收益率和发电成本估计分别为11.18%和8.09%，21.90美元/MWh和33.23美元/MWh。这些信息可用于投资决策。
