Digester-Gas Fuel-Production Facility Feasibility Study.

摘要

Results of studies on feasibility of using the Bergen County Utilities Authority's digester gas to fuel vehicles are included. Availability and suitability of digested gas were studied. Digester gas production records and test analyses on digester gas were reviewed. Additional sampling and testing were performed to provide data on gas production, delivery rates and characteristics. A review and evaluation of digester gas cleaning methods was conducted. Gas cleaning, storage and delivery systems were costed to service the Authority's vehicular needs. The feasibility of the project based on economic and environmental considerations is reported and compared to possible alternative uses of the digester gas. A program of construction and operation is recommended. (ERA citation 08:036221)
