TurnWTE to Demo Small-Scale Unit in Hawaii Military Base

摘要

A waste-to-energy (WTE) project that will demonstrate the efficacy of converting 10 tons of waste per day to electricity using a gasification technology has begun at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii (JBPHH), inside the campus of the Hawaii Air National Guard (HIANG). The demonstration is sponsored by Hawaii Center for Advanced Transportation Technologies (HCATT) of the State of Hawaii, an initiative of High Technology Development Corporation (HTDC), under a contract with Biomass Energy Systems, Inc. (BESI). BESI, an IL-based engineering firm specializing in alternative energy integration, has designed and manufactured the WTE solution, which it will also install and operate for the demonstration.
