                                    PREFACE
     This report is a complete technical, economic, and environmental
evaluation of the Landgard® Demonstration Plant at Baltimore, Maryland.
Because of its bulk and to serve a twofold purpose, the report is presented
in four volumes:  an executive summary, the report proper, an analysis of
the problems, and the appendices.  Intended particularly for resource
recovery planners and administrators, the executive summary briefly and
succintly describes the Landgard® concept and Baltimore application for the
state-of-the-art advancement in the processing of municipal mixed solid
waste.  In addition, it presents an introductory problem analysis of most
of the major innovations that proved ineffective, caused serious shutdowns,
and required redesign or abandonment.  As the second, third, and fourth
volumes are detailed in-depth accounts of the evaluation, they were
prepared primarily for the designer.  Of the four volumes, only the
executive summary has been prepared for wide distribution in a paper copy
format.  The second, third, and fourth volumes are reproduced on microfiche,
which is readily available through NTIS.

                                   ABSTRACT
     One of the first efforts in this country to demonstrate solid waste
resource recovery technology was the Baltimore Landgard® project which was
a joint venture between the City of Baltimore, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), the Maryland Environmental Service, and Monsanto
EnviroChem.  The Baltimore plant was designed and built by Monsanto
EnviroChem to thermally process (pyrolyze) 907 Mg (1000 tons) per day of
mixed municipal solid waste, convert it to energy (in the form of steam),
and recover magnetic metals and glassy aggregate.  Although the plant has
never been fully operational in its original design configuration, con-
siderable knowledge has been gained from it concerning resource recovery
from municipal solid waste.  The numerous equipment breakdowns and the
inability of the plant to comply with air pollution standards accounted for
the major difficulties encountered during the project.  Major equipment
problems were encountered with the storage and recovery unit, the refrac-
tory in the thermal processing vessels, the main induced-draft fan, the
residue discharge drag conveyor, and the slag discharge screw conveyor.
Despite the fact that the designer recommended converting the plant to a
conventional incinerator, plant performance has been sufficiently encour-
aging to warrant continued investment and operation by the City of Baltimore.
One of the primary reasons for this attitude by the City is that the rotary
processing kiln has been demonstrated to be an excellent primary reaction
vessel.  Although the present plant is not environmentally acceptable
because of high particulate emissions, this problem will be resolved by the
installation of two electrostatic precipitators.

     The thermal efficiency of the plant was determined to be approximately
56 percent for an average feed rate of 454 kg per minute (30 tph).  The plant
has a capital cost of approximately $22 million, an annual operating and
maintenance cost of $3 million, and an annual steam revenue of $1 million.
The net operating cost, based on historical operating data, is $64.10 per Mg
($58.20 per ton) of refuse processed.  However, if the annual throughput of
67,000 Mg (74,000 tons) could be substantially increased to 270,000 Mg
(300,000 tons), operating cost could be reduced to $7.80 per Mg ($7.10 per
ton) of refuse processed.

     This report is submitted in fulfillment of Contract No. 68-01-4359 by
Systems Technology Corporation (SYSTECH) under the sponsorship of the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.  This report covers a period from
October 1, 1975 to April 30, 1978.

                           KILN MODEL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION

     The heart of the Landgard Waste Disposal Process is the rotating kiln.
The processing of waste within the kiln is an exceedingly complicated process
with many phase changes, combustion and complicated chemical reactions taking
place in different portions of the kiln.  Specific areas in which these take
place and the speed and efficiency with which they occur are all important
aspects of the operation of the kiln and have a direct bearing on the con-
trollable operating parameters of the kiln.

     Because of the inability to physically vary many of the parameters
affecting the operation of the kiln at Baltimore, it was decided to develop a
mathematical simulation model of the processing kiln.  The model was designed
to be flexible enough to permit parametric changes of values in the mathemat-
ical equations.  This would enable the use of the model to predict kiln per-
formance at various scale factors and modes of operation.  The ability of the
model to accurately simulate the actual operation of the kiln was assessed by
entering field measured inputs and comparing the computed outputs to field
measured outputs.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE MODEL

     A common approach to mathematical simulation of any complicated process
is to begin with the complex process and make simplifications to achieve a
workable level of realistic engineering relationships.  Stepwise sophistication
is then added to this simplified version until the mathematical simulation
adequately describes the real life situation.  What is adequate in any parti-
cular case depends upon the level of sophistication desired on the part of the
evaluator.

Kiln Process

     The kiln process has been discussed previously but will be summarized
again.  The major inputs and outputs of the kiln are:  refuse entering the
kiln at the feed end and residue exiting the kiln at the discharge end, air
and fuel oil entering the discharge end, the kiln off gases exiting the feed
end, and surface heat loss.  Some other minor inputs include fuel oil from the
safety burners at the feed end, burner atomizing steam at both ends, vaporized
water from the seal tanks at both ends, and leakage air through the kiln seals
at each end and- through the ram tubes at the feed end.

-------
     As the shredded refuse tumbles down the kiln, it undergoes thermal pro-
cessing in three stages where the temperatures progressively increase.  The
three stages are drying, pyrolysis, and combustion.  In the drying process, an
endothermic reaction, the heat is supplied by hot gases formed in the combus-
tion stage.  In the pyrolysis process, also an endothermic reaction with the
heat similarly supplied by the hot gases from the combustion stage but at a
higher temperature, the refuse is decomposed into combustible gases such as
CO, H2, Cm, and other hydrocarbons.  In the combustion process, an exothermic
reaction, carbon char and pyrolytic gases are combusted to provide the heat
for the endothermic drying and pryolysis reactions making the entire proces-
sing sequence self-sustaining.  The three thermal processes are controlled by
limiting the combustion air, supplied by the fans in the kiln feed hood, to a
fraction of the stoichiometric requirement.  The main method of heat transfer
in the kiln is radiation but some convective and conductive heat transfer
occurs between the refuse, the gases, and the refractory within the kiln.

Simplification of the Kiln Process

     The first simplification was to consider all minor inputs negligible,
resulting in a simplified flow diagram (Figure A-l).  This is a valid as-
sumption, since these flows are only a small percentage of the total input
flow.  The kiln process can be further simplified by considering it to be two
separate streams flowing in opposite directions with mass and energy transfer
between these two streams.  Because the kiln is rotating horizontally, the
flow pattern of the two streams are theoretically helical (Figure A-2).  This
flow pattern, which is extremely complicated and difficult to model, was
simplified by assuming the mass flow of the solid material is maintained in
the lower segment of the kiln while the mass flow of gases is maintained in
the upper segment of the kiln.  Therefore, the analytical procedure presumes
plug flow of the mass through the kiln.

     Convection from the gas flow, radiation, and conduction from the kiln
wall transfer heat to the solid mass tumbling through the kiln.  This heat
provides the energy required for the drying, pyrolysis and vaporization
occurring in the lower segment.

     It was resolved that the mathematical simulation should provide mass as
well as energy balance capability.  A search of the literature for acceptable
formulations disclosed a publication which treated the energy balance within a
furnace chamber by predicting the effect of allowance for radiation exchange
on the distribution of temperature and heat transfer*.  This technique did not
provide for mass balance; nor did any reference appear in the literature where
both energy and mass balances had been simultaneously treated.  Other problems
associated with the use of the Hottle-Cohen technique to simulate the kiln
were that their combustion chamber was fixed rather than rotational and their
fuel was coal as opposed to highly variable, heterogeneous solid waste.  It
was, therefore, decided to modify this technique and to extend it to calculate
mass as well as energy balances.

-------
     Since this technique used the finite element approach, the kiln model was
further simplified by approximating the actual cylindrical kiln as a rectangu-
lar box with approximately the same dimensions as the actual kiln.  To approx-
imate the two streams, the box was divided horizontally to represent conditions
along the length of the kiln and the box was divided vertically into various
finite elements (Figure A-3).  The dimension of the element was a function of
the rotational speed of the kiln, the feed rate of refuse, the density of the
refuse, and the number of elements selected for analysis.  The resulting
length of the imaginary element is, therefore, not simply an integral portion
of the true kiln length but is representative of retention time of mass in
each Imaginary element.

     The retention time is dependent upon how many points are selected to re-
present the length of the kiln.  The number of points selected is the number
of finite elements to be used in the analysis.  The elements are considered
to be cubic, having a side demension based upon the retention time given by
the equation:

          B = L  4 V2 + w2 D2 2 L   2 °-5
             nV                60

order to simulate reality to the highest possible degree, the pyrolytic pro-
cess was patterned after published data for the pyrolysis of the lignite
fuel*.  The volatile material is approximated as pure cellulose (C6Hi005) and
is pyrolyzed at a rate that varies exponentially with time and lineary with
temperature:

     m   = f (Temperature)   exp   im

     The products of pyrolysis are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, methane, ethane,
and volatile matter.  The "volatile matter" is a collective term that is
allowed to include all products with molecular weights higher than ethane,
including vaporized cellulose.

     The volatilization of carbon from the fixed carbon state in the lower
elements to the dissociated state in the upper elements is defined in the
model as a linear function of the temperature of the lower element:

     m  = f (Temperature)


     The conservation of mass is applied to each element in order to predict
the percentages of each component in each element.  The upper elements are in
every case the receptors of mass from the physical changes in the lower elements,
These mass transfers include evaporated water, volatile matter, and volatilized
carbon.

     The energy transfers to and from a lower element are illustrated in
Figure A-5.  The energy of the solids entering a lower element is defined as
the enthalpies of the various components (moisture, volatile matter, fixed
carbon, ash) using the temperature of the previous element.  In a similar
manner the energy of the solids exiting the element can be determined using
the temperature of the element.  The energy of the mass lost to the upper
element is similarly determined using the temperature of the element and the
heats of vaporizationt.  Radiative heat transfer occurs between all elements
and the kiln wall while conductive heat transfer occurs with the kiln wall.

Upper Elements—
     The upper elements, which contain air, vaporized solids, and the products
of combustion, are the receptors of the evaporated water, volatilized carbon
and pyrolytic products.  By definition combustion is allowed to occur only in
the upper elements.  The combustibles are fuel oil, carbon, and volatile
matter (pyrolytic products), (Figure A-6).  It was assumed that fuel oil
behaves as methane and that products of combustion consist of carbon dioxide,

water, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen*.  The fixed carbon is considered to oxi-
dize in a manner that results in products consisting of carbon dioxide, carbon
monoxide, and fixed carbon.  For purposes of computation all unidentified
volatile matter, which is assumed to be cellulose (CeHioOs)* is allowed to
react in the presence of available exygen, to yield carbon monoxide, carbon
dioxide, carbon, hydrogen, methane, ethane, water, and uncombusted cellulose.

     The vaporization of fixed carbon, and the total pyrolysis of cellulose
from the lower element directly below into an oxygen-starved atmosphere of the
upper element contribute to the carbon content of the upper region.  The
carbon and fly ash, in the kiln coagulate to form a particulate component in
the otherwise gaseous discharge.  The kiln model disregards the fly ash, and
treats the particulate as free carbon.

     Carbon dioxide is formed from the volatilized carbon whenever oxygen is
available.  The carbon contends with the free hydrogen for the available
oxygen.  Simultaneous solution of model balance equations for carbon, hydrogen
and oxygen are used to predict the amounts of each respective species.

     The energy fluxes in the upper elements are illustrated in Figure A-7-
The energy of the inlet gases was determined by summing the individual en-
thalpies of the various component gases at the temperature of the previous
element.  The energy of the outlet gases is determined in a similar manner
using the temperature of the element.  The energy input due to the mass gain
from the lower elements is equal to the value obtained in the lower elements
analysis.

     Any energy release in an upper element due to combustion is added to that
element.  Radiative and convective heat transfer occurs with the kiln wall.
Radiative heat transfer occurs with all other elements and is temperature
dependent.

Conservation of Mass—
     The conservation of mass principle is applied as mass is transferred from
element to element due to physical and chemical changes and the normal flow
pattern.  As shown in Figure A-8,. mass is introduced into the kiln model at
two locations.  Solid refuse enters the first lower element (1) while air and
fuel oil are introduced in the upper element at the opposite end (n).  The
flow of gases in the upper elements is initialized by the air and the fuel oil
injected into the kiln and is combusted to completion in the nth element with
very little, if any, oxygen remaining.  As the gas stream flows from element
to element its mass is increased by the mass lost in the lower elements due to
the thermal processes of evaporation and volatization.   Therefore,  as the
refuse flows from element to element its mass correspondingly decreases.
Combustion of the vaporized/volatilized material in an upper element does not
effect the total mass in an element, but does change the mass of the specific
species, so each chemical reaction results in the conversion of mass from the
previous to the present chemical species.

-------
     Since the mass transfer rates can be defined as functions of the temp-
erature, it is possible to calculate the mass flow into and out of each
element, for a given temperature.  Thus, the conservation of mass through the
kiln is effected element by element, resulting in the calculated percentage of
each material component in each element.

     By performing the appropriate calculation to conserve mass in each of the
lower elements as the refuse progresses to its ultimate discharge, the analysis
of the residue can be determined.  In the same manner, by tracking the mass
into and out of each of the upper elements and considering the chemical reac-
tions involved in each element, the composition of the outlet gas can be
defined.

Conservation of Energy—
     The conservation of energy principle is used to verify or negate the
temperature assumptions used for the conservation of mass.  An average temper-
ature for each element is calculated considering the temperature of its
neighbors, and an average energy flux due to radiation is derived from this
temperature.

     The heat transfer due to radiation is the dominant energy transfer
mechanism in the balance.  Consequently, the element temperatures are the
basis for the calculations of energy transfer into and out of each element.
The net radiation is algebraically added to the energy gained from net mass
transfers into the element and to energy released by chemical reactions
occurring within the element.  The inside temperature of the kiln wall is
calculated using the element temperatures, and from the resultant value, the
convective energy transfer between the lower and the upper elements is
calculated.

     By summing all energies entering and generated in each element and sub- ,
tracting the energies leaving the element, the imbalance can be used to adjust
the temperature for that element.  By performing a sufficient number of
iterations for the entire set of elements, the imbalance can be reduced to any
non-zero value desired.  Thus,  the temperature profile can be determined to
the desired accuracy by using a computer iteration technique.

COMPUTER PROGRAM

     A fortran program was written to permit rapid, repetitive numerical
analyses based on this mathematical model, while providing the opportunity to
selectively alter parameters of the kiln design and/or operation to study the
impact of the changes on kiln temperature and reaction products.

     The flow diagram for the computer program is shown in Figure A-9.  The
inputs required for the program and their symbols are as follows:

     Each of these values, except the last four temperature approximations,
affect the results of the model outputs and may be varied in order to
study their effects on the kiln operation.  In addition to the operational
variables that would influence the operation of a defined kiln, the kiln
itself may be redefined as to its length, diameter, rotational speed,
wall thickness, and thermal properties.

     To reduce the number of iterations the approximate temperatures at the
refuse inlet, the air and fuel oil inlet, the residue outlet, and the off
gas outlet are read into the program.  Using this data the program generates
two linear temperature profiles, for the upper and lower elements based upon
the four assumed temperatures.  These temperatures (T ), at the interface of
element, are averaged to obtain an internal element temperature.  The program
then subjects the data to a finite element analysis constrained by conserva-
tion of mass and energy.  The energy imbalance of each element (E) is com-
pared to a predetermined value the temperature approximations are incrementally
adjusted to correct the discrepancy and another iteration is performed with
the new temperatures.

     If the net energy contained within an element is correct within the
predetermined limits that element is in balance.  When this conservation of
energy criterium has been met for each element the program has reached
completion and the Temperature Profile and Chemical Analyses are printed.
The degree of accuracy obtained is, therefore, controlled by the limit of
allowable error in the temperature profile, and the number of elements used
for the analysis.

     The outputs of the program are temperature profiles for each of the
upper and lower regions of the kiln, and chemical analyses of the outlet
gasses, entrained particulates, and the solid residue.  The foregoing dis-
cussion has shown how these outputs are mathematically attained and how
they are dependent upon certain user supplied starting conditions.

     While this model was specifically designed after the Baltimore system,
it is flexible enough to realistically analyze and predict the performance
of rotary kilns of other types and configurations.  A listing of the computer
program is provided as Appendix D.

                                INTRODUCTION
     This appendix presents the data acquisition techniques, stream character-
izations, and the mass and energy balances in more detail than Volume II.
Also included are the methods of calculating the balances.

     All general plant stream characterizations such as electricity, water
and sewer will be included at the beginning of this section.  The receiving,
size reduction, and storage and recovery modules will then be discussed
together as the waste preparation subsystem.  The next section will be a
detailed discussion of the thermal processing and energy recovery modules.
Besides the detailed stream characterizations and detailed sampling techniques,
the numerous balances generated from SYSTECH and Monsanto data will be pre-
sented.  The final section will contain data acquisition techniques and stream
characterization data for the residue separation module and the gas scrubber
system.

     The information is presented to explain sampling techniques employed in
this study, and to present the necessary data for those who wish to examine
the process in more detail.

     As mentioned previously in Volume II, much of the data was collected by
Monsanto, the City of Baltimore, TRW, and Environmental Elements Corporation.

                                 GENERAL PLANT
ELECTRICAL POWER DEMAND

     The total plant power demand for the three levels of operation (downtime,
standby, and operating) was determined from a computer printout supplied by
Baltimore Gas and Electric Company.  The computer printout gave a 15 minute
average of the power demand.  Using the operational status during the period,
Table B-l was generated.

     The electrical energy demand for each module was measured in order to
allocate the cost of electricity to each module, and for use in the unit
process and subsystem balances.  The module electric power demand was cal-
culated by summing the electric power demand of the major pieces of equipment
and facilities that comprise the module.  The line current for each piece of
equipment was measured at the power box in the motor control center by using
a recording clamp-on, split core ammeter.  The electrical power demand (P)
was then calculated using the measured line current (In), the known line
voltage (E«), and estimated power factor (Pf), and the following equation:

                         P -  3 E£ It Pf

     The power factor was estimated based upon the specific facility or equip-
ment being considered.  Building power factors were estimated between 0.95
and 1.00 because lights and heating elements have a power factor of 1.0 while
the small motors (0-5 hp) within the building circuit have a power factor of
0.8 to 0.95.  The larger motors were estimated to have power factors of 0.5
to 0.8 with the largest motors having the smallest power factor.  The electric
power demand for the individual modules is shown in Tables B-2 through B-8.

WATER CONSUMPTION

     The plant water consumption was determined by daily readings of the
main plant water meter.  This data, shown in Table B-9, was collected both
during periods when the scrubber was off and during periods when it was on.
Similarly measurements were made both when the gas purifier was water cooled
and when it wasn't.  This data was collected during periods when the plant
was operating at different throughput rates.

     The supply water composition measured by the City is compared to the
grab sample analyses performed by SYSTECH in Table B-10.  The water generally
has low concentrations of most of the commonly measured parameters that
indicate a water of high quality.  However, with a hardness of approximately
75 mg/£ the water does require softening before use in the boilers.

WASTEWATER EFFLUENT

     The wastewater effluent is pumped by the wastewater lift station to the
city sewer system.  This wastewater flow was measured by timing the filling
cycle of the lift station wet well.  The actual flow measurements shown in
Table B-ll are directly related to the rate of steam production and therefore
the refuse feed rate.  The maximum flows occur during manual blowdown of the
boilers.

     The wastewater is mainly comprised of boilerwater blowdown, process
cooling water, and recycled cooling water system blowdown.  The method of
calculating the respective flows of each of these wastewaters was discussed in-..
Volume II.  To briefly recap that discussion the boilerwater constant blow-
down rate was determined by comparing the design rate of 10 percent of the
boiler feedwater flow to the percentage calculated from the feedwater and
boilerwater total solids concentration.  The 10 percent rate was confirmed by
this method, indicating that the boiler blowdown rate is dependent upon the
steam production and therefore the refuse feed rate.   The boiler feedwater and
blowdown analysis is included in the discussion of the thermal processing
subsystem.  The manual blowdown rate was estimated from process design data
to be 75,600 liters per day independent of the steam production and refuse
feed rate.  The various cooling water flow rates were determined by measuring
the time required to fill a known volume at the discharge of each stream
flowing to the sewer.  The flow rates of the various cooling waters are as
follows:

          Water                                   Flow Rate (1pm)

Shredder bearing cooling water (each)                  25.4
Induced draft fan (inboard bearing)                     1.9
Induced draft fan (outboard bearing)                    1.0

     The blowdown and make-up for the recycled cooling water system was estimated
from design data to be 75.6 1pm (20 gpm).   Based upon the above data and
estimated steam rates discussed in the thermal processing section, water and
sewer rates were generated for each scenario for use in the economic evalua-
tion (Table B-12).

     The composition of the wastewater effluent, which is mainly concentrated
city water, was determined by analyzing a composite of grab samples taken
over an eight hour period.  Often when the grab samples were taken the pH
and temperature were measured with the data shown in Table B-13.  The
effluent is generally hot due to the boiler blowdown, and has a high pH.
Chemical analysis of the wastewater revealed that it  was low in all
parameters measured except for total solids, which are high due to the
solids concentration in the boiler blowdown (Table B-14).

                          WASTE PREPARATION SUBSYSTEM
REFUSE COMPOSITION

     The composition of the refuse was determined by two different methods at
different locations in the process stream.  The composition of the refuse in
the storage pit was determined by manual and photosorts, and by moisture and
bulk density analysis of the manually sorted categories.  The shredded refuse
on the kiln feed conveyor was subjected to moisture, proximate and ultimate
analyses.

Sorting Methods

     A 45 - 90 kg (100 - 200 Ib) sample for sorting was obtained from the
storage pit by using a front endloader, or alternately by placing the refuse
within a randomly chosen area on a canvas tarp.  The sample was then placed
on a tarp between two rows of 5 - 208 liter (55 gallon) drums.  Each drum
was labeled for a specific waste category.  All the trash bags were then
split open, the contents dumped back onto the pile and the bag placed back
into the pile.  This point 2 photo slides of the sample pile of refuse were
taken (Figure B-l).   The sample pile of refuse was then sorted into
categories until the pile contained only small fines less than 2.5 cm (1 in.).
The total mass of each category was determined by weighing, and the bulk
density was determined selectively by measuring the volume of sample for
each category.  The photo sort slides were analyzed by projecting the
slide on a backlighted screen marked.with a 2.5 cm (1 in.) grid.  The
type of waste (category) under each mode (cross in the grid) was observed
and recorded.  The number of counts for each category was multiplied by
the material bulk density to obtain a relative weight.  This relative
weight was divided by the sum of all the relative weights to obtain the
mass percent for that category.   The photo sort did not compare directly
to the manual sort,  as shown in Table B-15, and should not be relied
upon as a precise method for determining refuse composition.

     The glass and iron may be low in the photo sorts due to settling within
the pile or misreading due to attached paper.   Organics are small and hard
to see in a photo sort, often wrapped in paper or placed in cans.

     The "other metals" category typically included in composition analyses
was eliminated because there is usually only a trace amount (less than 1
percent) in a 90 kg (200 Ib) sample.

     An attempt was made to determine the composition of the "fines" category
by manually sorting the fines in the size range of 0.5 cm (0.2 in.) to 2.5 cm
(1 in.) (Table B-16).

     The fines from Sample B with a size of less than 0.5 cm (0.2 in.) had an
estimated composition of 60 percent organics and 40 percent glass.  While the
omission of the fines from sorting would result in a systematic error of
lower organic and glass concentrations.  The average component properties
of the refuse as measured by manual sorts are shown in Table B-17.

Physical and Chemical Analysis

     Shredded refuse samples from the kiln feed conveyor were collected and
dried in an oven at a temperature of 103°C (217°F).  The shredded refuse
samples were weighed before and after drying, and the results are shown in
Table B-18.  The dried shredded refuse samples were combined to form a weekly
composite sample which was sent to an outside lab for proximate, ultimate,
and ash analysis.  The proximate analyses, including some reported by Monsanto,
are shown in Table B-19.  The actual analyses reported by the labs were
corrected to include the separated matter (metal and glass) as ash, and to
the average, "as received" moisture content.  The ultimate analyses including
those reported by Monsanto, are shown in Table B-20.  In order to compare
the proximate and ultimate analyses with the manual sort data, the results
of the manual sorts were used to back calculate a hypothetical proximate and
ultimate analysis.  The results, shown in Table B-21, reveal that the two
techniques yield different compositions.  Both techniques are questionable
because of the relatively small sample size and heterogeneity of the refuse.

     The ash analyses of the refuse are shown in Table B-22, while the optical
emission spectography analysis of the refuse is shown in Table B-23.

REFUSE BULK DENSITY

     As discussed in Volume II, the refuse bulk densities were measured at
various stages of preparation.  Tables B-24 through B-26 detail the bulk
density values presented in Section 3 of Volume II.  Table B-25 also presents
bulk densities measured in the storage and recovery unit.  The bulk densities
were measured by filling a 0.04 m3 (1.5 ft.3) box with the samples and then
weighing the sample.

     The size distribution of the refuse before and after shredding was mea-
sured by sieve analysis.  Five sieves were used; 152.4 mm (6 in.), 101.6 mm
(4 in.), 50.8 mm (2 in.), 25.4 mm (1 in.), and 5.1 mm (0.2 in.)-  The results
of the sieve analysis are shown in Table B-27.  Figure B-2 reveals that the
refuse lacks an uniform size distribution both before and after shredding.

     Tables B-28 and B-29 detail diesel fuel consumption data that were
presented as averages in Section 3, Volume II of the report.  Total-consump-
tion was measured by daily readings of the totalizer on the diesel fuel pump.
Some of the readings were taken from the city daily log, but the majority
were recorded by SYSTECH.  The consumption of diesel fuel is not presented on

                                     42

a daily basis because it is meaningless because filling of the bulldozer fuel
tanks was only done every 3 days.  The amount of refuse processed was deter-
mined from city daily operation reports.

     Table B-30 lists the duct flows within the dust collection system as
measured by Monsanto when initially balancing the system.

     Table B-31 details the composition data of the magnetic drum discharge
summarized in Section 2 of Volume II.  As indicated by the table, only one
manual sort was obtainable due to the short operating period of the magnet.
The amount of shredded refuse separated during operation was determined by
weighing the separated refuse contained in the metal transfer truck using the truck
scale.  This data along with the amount of shredded refuse fed to the magnetic
drum was obtained from the city daily operation report.   The total separated
magnetic material was calculated to be 5.4 percent of the feed stream.  The
percent of material in each category removed by the magnetic drum separator
was calculated as follows:

Wt. % of category "A" in separated refuse  x  Total % of refuse separated
          Wt. % of category "A" in incoming stream

     The power demand of various motors of the storage and recovery unit as
a function of various output parameters is shown in Table B-32.

                                  SECTION B-4

                        THERMAL PROCESSING SUBSYSTEM
PLANT AVAILABILITY AND THROUGHPUT

     The plant throughput was shown graphically in Figure 8 of Volume I, a
cumulative plot of refuse processed versus time.  The data used to develop
this graph is detailed in the operation summary shown in Table B-33.  The
plant availability is shown by the daily operating time which increases gen-
erally throughout the periods.  All dates not shown are periods of downtime.

FUEL OIL CONSUMPTION

     The daily fuel oil consumption (Table B-34) was determined from the
daily totalizer readings.  These readings were made at or shortly after
7:00 a.m.  The daily fuel oil consumption was from 7:00 a.m. of one day to
7:00 a.m. of the next day.  This does not correlate with the operation
summary (Table B-33) which has a daily period beginning and ending at midnight.
The amount of refuse fired daily and the number of standby hours per day in
Table B-34 are taken from Table B-33 to show the relationship between fuel
oil consumption and the amount of refuse fired daily and the number of standby
hours.

     Using the hourly readings of the fuel oil totalizer and the city daily
data sheets the hourly fuel oil consumption during both standby and operating
conditions is shown in Tables B-35 and B-36 respectively.  Table B-36 reveals
that the fuel oil consumption during operating conditions is independent of
the feed rate.  The consumption depends upon the minimum firing rate of the
burners.  During the period from November 12 to December 14, 1976 the con-
sumption averaged 723 liters per hour (194 gph).  The minimum firing rates of
certain burners was reduced and the operating fuel oil consumption dropped to
an average of 262 liters per hour (69 gph) during the period of January 13 to
March 13, 1977.  The city then raised the minimum firing rates of the burners
to maintain a stable flame.  During the period from March 17 to May 13, 1977.
the operating fuel oil consumption averaged 639 liters per hour (169 gph).

     Two analyses of the No. 2 fuel oil are shown in Table B-37.

     No direct measurement of fuel oil flow to any individual burner nozzle
is available.   Hence, the only possible fuel oil flow measurements are made
at the flow meter supplying the two main kiln burners and the totalizing
meter, discussed previously, which supplies the fuel oil for all the burners.
The meter registering the fuel oil flow to the two main kiln burners has an
indicator on the main control panel.   Since the kiln standby and heat-up
burner is off  during normal operation the flow of the on-stream lead burner
is determined by reading the indicator on the control panel.  This data is
recorded hourly by city personnel.  The four kiln safety burners are identical
and each has a fixed firing rate of 0.032 1/min.  The burners are on at all
times from heat-up to shutdown.

     The gas purifier pilot burner has a fixed firing rate of 0.63 1/min.
The gas purifier standby burner has a variable firing rate with a maximum fuel
oil firing rate of 70.0 1/min.  This burner is off during normal operation and
its fuel oil flow rate can be determined by subtracting the sum of the other
burner flows from the total.  The fuel oil burner in the slag tap hole also
has a fixed firing rate.

     The main purpose of known individual burner firing rates is to determine
the fuel oil flow rates to the kiln and the gas purifier for balance purposes.
The kiln fuel oil flow rate is therefore the sum of the reading on the control
room indicator and the flow to the four safety burners.  The flow rate to the
gas purifier is the difference between the total fuel oil consumption and
the kiln fuel oil consumption.

     Energy input calculations are made by converting the mass flow rate to
energy flow rate by multiplying the mass flow rate by the average higher
heating value of the No. 2 fuel oil (Table B-37), the density of the fuel oil
(assumed from standard tables to be .892 kg/1), and assuming a .985 combus-
tion efficiency.

Propane Consumption

     The propane consumption was discussed in detail in Volume II, and the
propane consumption data is shown in Table B-38.

COMBUSTION AIR FLOW RATES

     Combustion air enters the thermal processing vessels by three methods.
Some combustion air is blown into the kiln and gas purifier by six combustion
air fans.  Additional air enters the gas purifier exit duct through the
quench air openings due to subatmospheric pressure within the duct.  Finally
unmeasurable amounts of leakage air enter the thermal processing vessels
due to their internal subatmospheric pressure, through the kiln seals, ram
feeders, and through the boiler shell.

Combustion Air Fans
                                                         /
     The process air flow delivered by the five combustion air fans was
determined for the mass balance by either direct fan inlet velocity measure-
ment or fan inlet damper correlation curves.  Air flow velocity at the inlet
was determined using a hand-held, totalizing, vane anemometer in each of the
fan inlets.  The anemometer was held in a series of eight positions for
fifteen seconds at each position.  Four of the positions were equal area
points along a vertical radial line and the other four points were on a
horizontal radial line.  The anemometer totalizer was turned off for fifteen
seconds between points to allow for velocity stabilization of the anemometer
at each point.  The reading on the totalizer was divided by the time (2
minutes) to calculate the indicated average velocity.  The actual velocity was
determined from the indicated velocity by using the calibration curve shown
in Figure B-3 which was developed from a calibration chart supplied by the
manufacturer.

     The volumetric flow rate was determined from the velocity measurements
by using the area of the fan inlet.  The inlet areas for each of the fans are
as follows:

     The field fan curves for each of these fans are shown in Figures B-4
through B-8.  These figures also include the results of Monsanto fan curve
tests during a shutdown period and Monsanto field fan curve tests.

     In order to calculate the mass flow rate using the volumetric flow rate
the density of the air must be known.  Ambient air density, p , was calculated
from the ambient temperature, pressure, and relative humidity as follows.
Using the relative humidity and ambient temperatures (dry bulb) the ASHRAE
psychrometric charts (either No. 1 or No. 2 depending upon ambient temperature)
are entered and a humidity ratio, o>, is determined which has the units of
mass of water vapor per unit mass of dry air.  From the equation

                                = PB Cl + a))
                              a   (1 + 1.61 u>) RT

ambient air density can be is barometric pressure.  R is the gas constant,
and T is the absolute temperature.  The mass flow rate for each fan was
calculated by multiplying the air density by the volumetric flow rate.

     Often field damper settings and inlet velocity measurements were not
available for balance calculations.  The control room indicator which displayed
damper position was recorded hourly by the city.  In order to use this data
fan curves were plotted for both field and control room damper settings.
These fan curves are shown in Figures B-9 through B-15.  The gas purifier and
crossover combustion air fans are frequently off during refuse processing and
air is drawn through the fan inlets by the subatmospheric pressures existing
within the process vessels.  As a result .of this induced flow, with no indi-
cated control variation, the air flow can be observed to shift radically.
Naturally the control variable in these cases is process pressure which does
not appear in the curves, nor is there sufficient data to develop an inlet
flow map which would also correlate process pressure.

     The dust collection fan discharges into the crossover duct providing a
portion of the process combustion air.  Its use as a dust collection device
dictates that the fan can be operated at a constant volume flow.  The
volumetric flow rate of the fan discharge (Table B-39) was determined by
measuring the velocity of the air in the discharge duct which has a known
cross sectional area.  The velocity was measured using a standard pitot tube
and horizontal manometer.  This method is discussed in detail later.  This
air density was determined by the method discussed previously.

     Mass flow through the fan varies only with the ambient air density.
 Multiplying the volume flow rate by the ambient density derived as previously
described yields the fan mass flow rate.

Quench Air Flow

     The air flow through the quench air openings and dampers, previously
described in Volume II, is dependent upon the cross-sectional area of the
opening in the duct and the pressure differential between the duct and the
atmosphere.  Figure B-16 shows the ideal (calculated) air flow into the duct
through the slotted quench air damper opening under various differential

pressures.  Only the 100 percent open damper position is shown because  it  is
stuck at this position.  From this curve the air flow through this opening
can be determined based on the estimated differential pressure.

     The butterfly valve damper opening is the same size as the slotted
damper opening and when the butterfly valve is open full the flow is the same
as the slotted damper opening.  When the butterfly valve is fully closed,
there is still an open area of 0.056 m2 (0.6 ft.2) resulting in some air
flow.  Figure B-17 shows the calculated air flow curves for 0, 20, 40, 60,
80, and 100 percent open areas for the butterfly valve damper opening.  The
percentage open is recorded hourly by the city and can be read easily in the
field.

Leakage Air Flow

     The leakage air through the ram snouts, kiln seals, and boiler shell was
determined using two test points when all the major inputs to the system were
known except for the leakage air.  During the standby test of June 28, 1977
at 1530 hours and the on-stream test of July 1, 1977 at 0900 hours, the
refuse in the ram snouts did not provide a good seal.  As a result, the kiln
mass balance could not be determined by measuring and summing the known in-
puts and outputs.  By determining the total system input flows, and subtract-
ing them and the residue and slag outputs from the flow at the boiler discharge,
the leakage air was determined.   The leakage rate during the standby test was
156.5 kg/min. (344.3 Ibs./min.)  and 113.4 kg/min. (249.5 Ibs./min.) during
the on-stream measured refuse test.

     Verification of this leakage air rate was made by calculating the
necessary flow area required to  pass those quantities of air.  The flow area
required to accommodate the standby leakage rate, assuming a flow coefficient
of 0.6 is 0.1 m2 (1.1 ft.2).  This magnitude of area when split between the
two ram tubes is considered to be a reasonable value since it indicates an
average gap between the waste plug and the ram walls of slightly more than
1 cm (0.4 in.).   Naturally there was not a uniform gap between the refuse and
the ram snout, but the magnitude of the dimension is reasonable.   A similar
check of the on-stream test indicated a leakage area of approximately half
that estimated for the standby test.

     During subsequent tests, the refuse feed rate was estimated, introducing
a margin of error into the balance calculation which precluded a determination
of the leakage air flow.   Since  there was no means of estimating the leakage
air flow for subsequent tests, the leakage flow for the subsequent tests was
assumed to be zero although in actuality some leakage existed.

Heat Input of Combustion Air

     The sensible heat input of  the combustion air to the process was cal-
culated as follows.  Using the previously determined humidity ratio (to), and
the total air mixture flow, the  mass of dry air and the mass of water vapor
were determined from the following equations:

HEAT LOSS THROUGH VESSEL WALLS

     The loss through the vessel walls was originally to be calculated by
multiplying the surface area of the vessel by the differential temperature
between the vessel surface and the ambient air, and overall heat transfer
coefficient.  To measure the surface temperature of the various vessels a
surface contact and an optical pyrometer were- used.  Only the thermal vessels
and ducts between the kiln and boiler-economizer discharge duct were measured
since losses beyond this point were not important.  For various reasons the
surface heat loss from each of the vessels was determined differently as
discussed below.

Kiln Heat Loss

     Calculation of the kiln heat loss was performed using both an analytical
and an empirical approach to provide a check on the validity of the results.
Figures B-18 through B-24 present various temperature profiles along the
length of the kiln.
         "i
Analytical Method

     At any point that a temperature differential and a heat transfer co-
efficient can be determined the heat transfer rate can be calculated.  The
total heat transferred from the kiln surface must pass through three inter-
faces between the internal gas and the outside air.  The temperature differ-
ential between the ambient air and the kiln surface are kno'wn, and therefore,
it is the simplest interface to use.  The overall heat transfer at this point
is a summation of the radiant and convective heat transfer.  To further
simplify calculations the kiln was divided into a series of heat transfer
surfaces.  First, the kiln itself is a rotating cylinder whose axis is
approximately horizontal.  Then both the feed and fire hoods consist of flat
vertical and horizontal surfaces.  At the time of the skin temperature
measurements there was a wind, changing the situation from free convection to

and exponents based on English units.  Hence, all calculations presented here
were made in Engligh engineering units and subsequently converted to metric
units.

Radiant Heat Transfer

     The first requirement is to determine the surface radiation heat loss
component.  The equation for this is:

     Substituting NtL  = 3328

Summing all of the heat transfer components

               q = 318.7 MJ/min
Empirical Method

     The alternative approach used to determine kiln heat loss was to
calculate the total input heat and determine the output heat flow based
on measured kiln discharge temperature and calculated mass flow.  The
difference must be heat lost by the kiln.

     The test used for this purpose was the standby test of Jun 28, 1977
at 1530.  In this test, the fuel heat input is well known and the fuel
at the kiln exit is assumed to be completely combusted based upon the
high oxygen levels (14 percent).  The important point in this statement
is that during pyrolysis of refuse, the refuse is not completely combusted
and a similar balance of heat input and discharge of sensible heat from
the kiln would not provide information leading to a true kiln skin heat
loss evaluation.  There are two reasons for this; heat input would not
be accurately known, and potential heat discharged as uncombusted gas
would not be evaluated.  For these reasons only a standby test can be
used to determine heat lost through a heat balance.
                                     106

-------
     According to the standby test the energy inputs to the kiln are air
(26.3 MJ/min), atomizing steam (17.7 MJ/min), and fuel oil (758 MJ/min)
for a total energy input of 802.2 MJ/min.  The only energy output besides
surface heat loss is the kiln-off gas which has an energy output rate of
426.7 MJ/min.  The difference of 375.5 MJ/min is therefore the surface
heat loss.

     Comparing the heat losses estimated by analytical heat transfer and
empirical heat balancing there is reasonably good agreement of the two
values with a deviation of 15 percent assuming that the heat balance is
considered accurate.

Gas Purifier Heat Loss

     The gas purifier has had a tendency as a result of both thinned
refractory and high heat loading to have rather high skin temperatures
(Table B-40).  As a means of lowering skin temperatures, a water manifold
was installed which sprayed water onto the top of the gas purifier and
that water was allowed to run around the perimeter to a point where that
water which was not vaporized ran off of the under side of the cylindrical
shell.  This means of lowering the skin temperature is effective but
develops a random pattern of flow over the shell surface.  The gas purifier
heat loss cannot be determined analytically because of high,  but unknown,
tangential internal gas velocities, uneven thickness of refractory
insulation, and random patterns of cooling water flow on the shell
surface.  The only possible means of calculating heat loss is to calculate
or measure all heat inputs to the process and calculate or measure all
lost or delivered heat outputs.  The difference between the two numbers
should be representative of the gas purifier heat loss.

     The only case in which all inputs are reasonably well known is the
standby test of June 28, 1977 at 1530 hours.  Based upon this balance
which is discussed in detail in a subsequent section, the gas purifier
surface heat loss rate is 617.2 MJ/min.

Boiler-Economizer Heat Loss

     Since the actual calculation of the boiler surface heat  loss rate
requires the evaluation of parameters not easily determined,  it was
decided to assume that the boilers have typical losses.  Therefore,
while boiler surface temperatures were measured and found to  be in the range
of 316°K, the boiler surface heat loss was estimated to be 1  percent of the
incoming heat flow based upon the curves reported by the American Boiler
Manufacturers Association.*

     The economizer surface heat loss was conservatively estimated to be
2.5 percent of the incoming heat flow for lack of better information.  This
is quite possible since the surface temperature of the economizers was much
hotter, generally in the range of 466°K.

Deaerating Heater Heat Loss

     The deaerating heater had an uniform and consistent average surface
temperature of 466°K.  The skin heat loss is calculated based on a free
convection over a horizontal cylinder.  The heat loss was calculated using
English units and the results were converted to metric.  In order to know
which equation to use for calculating the convective heat transfer coefficient
(h ) the Grashof number (Gr) must be calculated using the following formula:

                              rr - S3P2ATL3
                              Gr =   *2
                                     Pz
     The diameter of the cylinder (L), and the temperature differential
between the deaerating heater surface and the ambient air (AT) are known.  As
taken from a reference table* the unit g3p2/y2 is equal to 1.35 x 106 for a
mean air temperature of 38°C (100°F).  The Grashof number can then be calcu-
lated to be approximately 1.35 x 1011-  Since the Grashof number is between
102 and 10^ the equation for determining the convective heat transfer coef-
ficient for long cylinders is h  = 0.18 AT 1/3.  For the deaerating heater
the convective heat transfer coefficient is equal to 1.95 x 10 2 MJ/m20K.
Since the equation for the heat loss rate is q = h  A  AT the heat loss rate
is equal to 1.53 MJ/min.  This value remains relatively fixed, varying only
in response to changes in AT.  Since the internal temperature and the surface
temperature change very little, the ambient temperature are factored into a
AT for each test and the resulting q is calculated.

Duct Heat Loss

     Because of the methods used to calculate the heat loss from the various
vessels all of the duct heat losses have been included with one vessel or
another except for the boiler-economizer discharge duct.  The following
analysis estimates the heat loss rate from this section of ducting based
on free convection from a horizontal cylinder,  forced convection inside the
duct, and radiation from a grey steel surface.

     The total heat transfer can therefore be calculated by summing the
convective and radiation heat losses as shown by the following equation:

                    qdL = A (U AT + oc (Ts* - T^)

     The overall heat transfer coefficient (U)  can be calculated by the
following equation:
                    U
                        Rci + \ + Rco
     The various heat resistences can be calculated using the following
formulas:
                                    109

                                   co   hco

     To determine the heat transfer coefficient for forced convection  in a
duct (hpr)> the Reynolds number (Re) must be determined from the average film
temperature which was estimated to be 422°K.  Since the Reynolds number was
approximately 8.42 x 105 the flow is turbulent.  The equation for heat trans-
fer coefficient in a duct with turbulent flow is:

                    hci =

From the equation h   equals (0.05 Btu/ft2 min °R) 1.02 x 10~3 MJ/m2 min °K.
R   can then be calculated to equal 978.4 m2 min °K/MJ.

     The coefficient for convective heat transfer from the outside duct is
determined after first determining the flow characteristics from the Grashof
number (Gr) which equals 2.2 x Hr°-  Therefore the equation for h_n is:
                              hcf) = 0.18 AT 1/3
                                                                  CO
     Evaluating the equation h   = (0.011 Btu/ft2 min °R) 2.26 x 10"^ MJ/m2
min °K.  R   can then be calculated and R   = <4.425 x 103 m2 min °K/MJ.  The
overall heat transfer coefficient (U) can then be calculated and found to
equal 1.85 x 10 ** MJ/m2 min °K.  The convective heat transfer can then be
calculated using the following equation, q  = UA AT to equal 4.96 MJ/min.

     Since all the heat leaving the duct must pass all interface surfaces,
the surface temperature can be determined from:
                                          RfT + ^K      }

      Evaluating the equation T  - Tg = 23.4°K or Tg equals 391°K.  Then
calculating the radiation component of the duct heat loss from
where e for the surface is approximately 0.42 the radiant heat transfer rate
qR equals (4.187 x 103 Btu/min) 4.417/MJ min.
                                     110

-------
     Summing the total heat loss by the duct qdL = q  + q  = 9.38 MJ/min.
A simplified means of determining the heat transfer for other tests is to
utilize the value obtained and evaluate an overall heat transfer coefficient
as q,  = C AT which assumes that the heat transfer coefficients do not
change appreciably and the absolute temperature levels remain relatively
constant.  If this is true, then q   = 7.278 x 10 2 AT is the equation for
use in calculating the boiler-economize discharge duct heat loss for the
remaining tests.

DUCT GAS FLOW MEASUREMENTS

     Gas flows at the kiln crossover duct, the gas purifier exit duct, and
the boiler-economizer outlet duct were calculated by using a combined-
reverse static (S-type) pitot tube velocity measurements, orsat gas analyses,
and gas temperature measurements.  All measurements were made in English
units and the results were subsequently converted to metric units.

     The pitot tubes used (Figure B-23) were approximately 1.5 m (5 ft.)
long, and were made of stainless steel tubing.   The pitot tubes were
tested to determine the calibration pressure constant Cp.  Because of the
turbulent flow in the ducts the velocity was fairly uniform across the
cross section of the duct.  Therefore, only the estimated average pitot
tube measurement was used.  To determine the pressure differential in
inches of water, the measured differential pressure was multiplied by the
calibration pressure constant, and the specific gravity of the oil in the
manometer.

     When possible, the duct static pressure was measured, otherwise, an
estimated value of 101 kPa (2110 lbs./ft.2) was used.

     The moisture content of the gas was measured using water traps and a
dry gas meter.  When the moisture content was not available,  it was estimated
by calculating the moisture entering the process from those locations where
moisture content was available.  The relative impact caused by a moisture
content estimate error on the total gas.flow calculation was investigated
using a method of partial differentiation.  It was determined that a 5 percent
error in the moisture content would cause a 0.7 percent error in the total
mass flow.  Similarly, a 10 percent error in the moisture content results
in a 1.4 percent total mass flow error.  The consequence of these statements
is that relatively large errors in the measurement and estimation of the
water content of the gas results in insignificant mass flow errors.

     The composition of the gases at the various measurement points was
determined by a variety of techniques.  Monsanto used orsat,  firite and
mass spectrographic analyses, while Systech used orsat and gas chromatograph
analyses to determine the volume percentage of each gas.

     During all operations, temperature measurements were made by either a
calibrated thermocouple probe, fixed facility thermocouple probes, or both,
depending upon the temperature level being measured.  If gas temperatures
                                     111

-------
were below 1090°K Q.0600R) ,  then measurements were made with both the
calibrated thermocouple and  facility probes at those locations where facility
probes existed.   When temperatures were above 1090°K, measurements were
obtained only through permanent facility thermocouple probes.

     During the  standby test, it was noted that measurements at the crossover
duct made by the calibrated  thermocouple and facility probe differed by
64K° or nearly 8 percent.  This is sufficiently high to indicate error in
the facility measurement system.

     Thermocouple temperature measurements at relatively steady state
conditions can include only a few simple errors.  This does not infer that
correction of those errors is a simple task.  For example, the thermocouple
junction itself  suffers very little degradation with usage and as long as
the junction is  intact, it functions satisfactorily.  Errors generally are
found in the reference junction temperature, secondary junction temperatures
(caused by insertion of readout instruments in the circuit) , and readout
instrument errors.  In the Baltimore pyrolysis plant, temperatures are not
referenced to the ice point  (273°K) or the standard reference (339°),
but rather are left to float with the ambient temperature.  This is normal
heavy industry practice since the result, especially for very high temperatures
(>1100°K) usually represents an error of less than 5 percent which is quite
acceptable in most instances.  The thermocouple lead wire composition is
not known, i.e., copper conductor or alloy conductor, therefore the error
potential of secondary junctions cannot be evaluated.  The readout instrument
is located in the control room which is temperature controlled to 294° - 300 °K
but it is anticipated that the interior of the instrumentation cabinets
reaches 310° - 325 °K due to heat generated by the process control electronics.
No specific evaluation of the readout instrument error has been made, but
comparisons can be made.

     To estimate this error, the kiln-off gas temperature, as measured by
the calibrated thermocouple and the permanent facility thermocouple were
compared.  The facility thermocouple was consistently 78K° higher than the
calibrated thermocouple.  It was therefore assumed that the facility thermo-
couple had a systematic error of 78K° which should be subtracted to obtain
the correct temperature.

     Using the molar weight of each gas, the mass percentage of each gas
was calculated from the volume percentage along with the molar weight of
the mixture.  The density, of the gas mixture was then determined using the
ideal gas law.  The velocity of the gas flow in each duct was then calculated
using the following formula:
Having determined the velocity, the volumetric gas flow rate in each duct
was determined by multiplying the velocity by the crossectional area of
each duct.  The mass flow rate for each duct was calculated by multiplying
the volumetric flow rate by the density of the gas mixture.  Descriptions

of the various duct sampling crossections along with the flow coefficient
and temperature measurements of each crossection, are reported in following
separate subsections.

     Calculation of the heat flow at the various duct measurement points
progressed similar to the method used to calculate the sensible heat of the
air entering the process through the fans.  The measured total temperature
enthalpy of each gas constituent was determined and referenced to 273°K
The heat flow rate for each constituent was calculated by multiplying the
mass flow rate by the enthalpu for each constituent.  The total heat flow
rate was then equal to the sum of the heat flow rates for the constituents.

Kiln Feedhood and Crossover Duct

     Measurements were taken at the kiln feedhood and the kiln crossover
duct to characterize the kiln-off gases which is an output from the kiln
and an input to the gas purifier.  All of the feedhood data was collected
by Monsanto.  Because of the irregular flow patterns within the feedhood,
very little can be ascertained from the data.  However, for completeness,
the data is presented.

     The feedhood orsats are shown in Table B-40a.   These values are from
early in the demonstration and do not reflect the present kiln operation.

     The feedhood particulate loadings, shown in Table B-41, reveal that
the kiln-off gas composition varies considerably.   The particle size distribu-
tion of the feedhood particulate is shown in Table B-42.

     Various methods were used to analyze the composition of the feedhood
particulate.  The ultimate analysis of the particulate is shown in Table B-43,
while the particulate ultimate analysis by size distribution is shown in
Table B-44.  Spectrographic analysis of the feedhood particulate are shown
in Table B-45, and the spectrographic analysis by size distribution is
shown in Table B-46.  X-ray diffraction analyses of feedhood particulate
are shown in Tables B-47 and B-48 with Table B-48 revealing the analysis
according to size distribution.  Tables B-49 and B-50 present the X-ray
flourescence analyses of feedhood particulate by size distribution.

     As discussed in Volume II of this report, there were many methods used
to characterize the composition.  Since only the mean value from each
method was shown in that volume, the remaining data will  be presented.   The
mass spectrographic analysis data is presented in Table B-51 and the hydro-
carbon analysis data is shown in Table B-52.  All of this data was collected
by Monsanto EnviroChem while the remaining kiln-off gas data was collected
by Systech.

     Table B-53 is the crossover orsat data.  This  data was obtained using
both a stainless steel tube and a stainless steel water-cooled tube as the
collection probe.  The use of a water-cooled probe  had little effect on the
results.  The flame ionization detection (FID) gas  chromatograph data is
                                   113

t  Sample collected 5/27/75.  Detection limits:  0.0001% - 0.1000%.
   Major indicates a concentration of 1% or greater.
   Interference indicates that the spectral background is too high for
     determination of Ba at its wavelength.
   This is a semi-quantitative technique; therefore, the above results may
     vary by +20% - 50%.

shown in Table B-54.   The thermal conductivity (TC) gas chromatograph data
is shown in Table B-55.  The oil and grease (long chain hydrocarbons)
analyses are shown in Table B-56.

     The kiln crossover duct measurement port is located approximately 1-2 m
(3-6 ft) upstream of the point where the crossover combustion air fan and
the dust collection fan air enters the duct.  The duct itself is a steel
sheel 2.1 m (7 ft.) diameter lined with refractory brick 0.115 mm (4.5 in.)
thick.   The refractory is coated with a slag layer averaging 7.6 cm (3 in.)
thick.   In the bottom of the duct, the slag has piled up to form a somewhat,
flat surface having a maximum depth of approximately 0.3 m (1 ft) in the
center.  In addition, along the wall numerous stalactites and stalagmites
combine to form a highly irregular wall surface.  This type of deposit, is
indicative of highly distorted flow patterns within the crossover duct.
For this reason, the flow measurements at this point cannot be relied upon
for accuracy.   The duct configuration at the crossover measuring station
#12 is  not ideal for flow measurements for another reason.  Immediately
downstream of the measurement station gas purifier combustion air enters
the duct perpendicularly to the main flow.  Flow from these two fans is
injected at three points circumferentially around the duct.  When the air
is injected into the duct perpendicularly to the main flow, the influence
of the  injected flow is noticeable five to ten duct diameters upstream of
the injection point depending upon the flow momentum ratio.  In this case,
the airflow injected only slightly downstream of a measurement point defi-
nitely  distort the flow measurement.  Although the injection flow distortion
is not  measured; its influence on measurements is present to some unknown
extent  and renders those measurements unreliable.
                                                                 )3.
     However,  from a statistical aspect, the flow measurement results are
consistent and correctable.  No conclusion can be made concerning a flow
coefficient at this location since this reflects, in effect, a change in
flow area.  Considering the highly irregular flow surface, no evaluation
except  on a statistical basis is possible.  The gas flow at this point must
be determined by summing all of the material inputs into the kiln immediately
upstream of the duct.

Gas Purifier Discharge Duct

     Gas flow calculations at the gas purifier discharge duct are made in
the same manner as those at the kiln crossover duct.  The gas purifier duct
measurement port is located in a straight section of duct approximately 1-2 m
(3-6 ft) long, and having an inside diameter of 2.6 m (8.5 ft).  A straight
duct section starts at the exit of the gas purifier which has an entrance
contraction ratio of 1.63.  At the end of the straight duct section, there
is a chamber elbow and two quench air ports allowing high rates of flow
into the duct.  The measurements at this point, therefore, are made immedi-
ately downstream of a duct contraction and just prior to an elbow at which
point two high flow air masses enter the main duct.  As a result, the flow
velocity vector cannot be accurately measured due to normal pressure fluctua-
tions which mask the "Peakins" effect of rotating the probe to some offset
angle in an attempt to intercept the actual velocity vector.  The conclusion
                                    126

again must be that the gas flow measurements at this point are unreliable.
Subsequent statistical analysis indicates that the measurements are somewhat
consistent though not to the extent noted in the crossover duct.  Again,
the most reliable flow calculation at this station results from a summation
of all input flow upstream of the sampling point.

     Again for completeness, the composition data for the gas purifier dis-
charge duct gases are shown in Tables B-57 through B-59.  A pilot electro-
static precipitator was tested on the gas purifier discharge duct gases.
The gas were first passed through a water quench gas cooler and the results
are shown in Table B-60.

Boiler Inlet Duct

     While no velocity measurements were possible at this point, facility
temperature and orsat measurements were made to aid in the determination of
boiler efficiencies.  The boiler inlet orsats are shown in Table B-61.

Boiler/Economizer Discharge Duct

     Measurement of gas flow at this point is calculated in the same manner
as discussed for the kiln crossover and gas purifier exit ducts.  The
measurement station is located approximately 24 m (78 ft.) downstream of
the economizer discharge in a refractory lined section of straight steel
wall duct.  The straight section is approximately 18.3 m (60 ft) long and
has an inner diameter of approximately 2.2 m (7.33 ft).  The configuration
of this duct, and the low temperature of the gas flow stream (allowing use
of a calibrated thermocouple) combine to make this the most ideal gas flow
measurement section of those available.  Subsequently, experience has shown
that measurements agree quite well with flows calculated from measured
inputs.  This measurement station, therefore, is the only one that can be
relied upon- as a check on the _input flows.  The orsat measurements taken at
this point are shown in Table B-62.  The moisture content of gas at this
point was measured and the data is shown in Table B-63.  The complete data
for the dry electrostatic precipitator tests on the gases at this point is
shown in Table B-64.  This data was summarized and discussed in the Environ-
mental Assessment Section of Volume II of this report.  An ash analysis of
the particulate at this point is shown in Table B-65.

CHARACTERIZATION OF SOLID MATERIAL STREAMS

Refuse

     Since the composition of the refuse was discussed previously only  the
refuse feed rates requires further discussion.  The refuse feed rate to  the
kiln was normally determined by the belt scale on the kiln feed conveyor.
However, during most of the Systech test, the storage and recovery unit  was
bypassed, thereby bypassing the belt scale.  As a result, only one test  was
taken when the refuse feed rate was measured by the belt scale.  For all
other tests the flow rate was estimated based upon the average shredding
rate of 27 Mg/hr (30 tph), and the level of the refuse on the conveyors.  The
energy flow rates for the refuse was determined by multiplying the mass  flow
rate by the heat of combustion of the refuse (Table B-19).

Kiln Residue

     Kiln residue mass flow rate measurements were made on an intermittent
basis.  The total residue weight for a known period of time was measured and
compared to the total refuse input weight during the corresponding time
period.  The residue flow rate was calculated as a percentage of the refuse
feed rate on a wet basis (Table B-66).  This percentage varies considerably
with the degree of processing.  At one point when all the char was being
combusted the percentage was much lower (Table B-67).

     The moisture content of the residue was measured daily on site using a
drying oven at 103°C (217°F).  The moisture content was inversely dependent
upon the degree of refuse processing.  The moisture content data is shown in
Table B-68.  The average moisture content of 31 percent was used to calculate
the residue flow rate on a dry basis as it comes out of the kiln.   Multiplying
the wet flow percentage by the solids content (1 - moisture content)  the dry
kiln residue discharge is 30 percent of the incoming refuse.

     The bulk density of the refuse was measured by weighing a known  volume
of residue.  This data is also shown in Table B-68.

     Proximate analyses (Table B-69) of numerous residue samples were conducted
both by Monsanto and SYSTECH.  All SYSTECH data was corrected to reflect the
moisture content measured on-site, and all data was corrected to reflect
unshreddable materials which were separated from the sample.   These separated
materials were included as ash.  The heat output rate due to the heat of
combustidn of the char in the residue was then calculated by multiplying the
mass rate by the heat content (Table B-69).

     Ultimate analysis of the residue is shown in Table B-70 and ash  analysis
of the residue is shown in Table B-71.  This data was used to determine  the
specific heat of the residue and thereby the sensible heat loss due to the
residue discharge.   This loss is calculated by multiplying the mass rate by
the specific heat and a temperature differential.   The specific heat,
(estimated to be .33 cal/g°C) was calculated as a weighted average of the
component specific heats.  The component percentages were obtained from  the
proximate (Table B-69) and ash analyses (B-71), while the component specific

heats were typical handbook values.  The temperature differential is the
difference between the residue temperature, as measured by the optical
pyrometer, and the reference temperature 273°K.

     Table B-72 presents all the residue size data discussed previously in
Volume II of this report.

     Tables B-73 and B-74 present the refuse and residue ash fusion tempera-
ture data respectively.  These tables should be and are very similar.

     The gasoline consumption was discussed previously in the Mass and Energy
Balance Section of Volume II.  The complete data is presented in Tables B-75
and B-76.

     The residue quench tank process water and the residue truck drainage
were summarized and discussed in the Environmental Assessment Section of
Volume II.  The complete data is presented in Tables B-77 and B-78.

Gas Purifier Slag and Kiln Spillback

     Because of the continuous seal tank and the single transfer screw con-
veyor only the combined spillage and slag flow rates could be measured nor-
mally.  On one occasion when the slag tap hole plugged, the spillage flow was
estimated to be less than 0.5 kg/min. (1.1 Ibs./min.) or 0.13 percent of the
input refuse flow which is insignificant.  Therefore, most of the flow is
slag, and all will be considered as such.

     Unlike residue, the city records the weight of all the slag discharged
continuously.  When this data is compared to the total refuse input over the
same time period, the slag flow, as a percentage of refuse input, can be
calculated (Table B-79).

     In order to calculate the amount of slag discharged from the gas purifier
before it enters the water quench the moisture content must be known.  The
moisture content was measured on-site similarly to the kiln residue.  Using
the average wet slag flow percentage of 1.77 (Table B-79) and the average
moisture content of 14 percent (Table B-80) the average dry slag flow per-
centage is 1.52 percent.  The slag bulk density was measured similarly to the
kiln residue and the data is presented in Table B-80.

     The ash analyses of the gas purifier slag are shown in Table B-81.  It
should be noted that the blue and grey slag are not included in the average.
These are separate because they are samples of the slag that were found in
the sealed slag tap hole.  The grey slag with the high alumina and low silica
percentages caused most of the slag hole plugging.  The ash analyses were
used to determine the composite specific heat of the slag by the same method
used to calculate the kiln residue specific heat.  The specific heat of the
slag was estimated to be 0.4 cal./g°C.  The temperature differential for the
sensible heat loss by the slag was calculated using the gas temperature in
the gas purifier and the reference temperature of 273°K.

     The size distribution of the gas purifier slag is shown in Table B-82.
Table B-83 presents all the slag ash fusion temperature data.  Table B-84 is
the complete data set of the slag quench tank process water which was sum-
marized and discussed in the Environmental Assessment Section of Volume II of
this report.

Boiler Fly Ash

     Most of the boiler fly ash data was presented and discussed in the
Environmental Assessment section of Volume II of this report.  The fly ash
mass flow rate was calculated using the same technique as the kiln residue
and the gas purifier slag (Table B-85).  The ash fusion temperature data for
the boiler fly ash is presented in Table B-86.

QUENCH WATER VAPORIZATION

     No direct measurement of the quantity of water vaporized from the
residue quench and seal tanks to the process gas flow was possible.  Overall
water flow to the tanks was measured periodically, but this also includes
water removed with the residue and slag.  Since both the slag and residue
were analyzed for moisture content, the quantity of water removed with the
residue and slag was subtracted from the total flow to the tanks to calculate
an estimated average water vaporization rate for each.  The actual flow rate
varies with gas temperature, and, in the case of the seal tank, the amount of
slag tap hole plugging which has occurred to reduce the flow of heat into the
tank from the process.  The average flow rate of water vapor entering the
kiln from the residue and spillback quench water was estimated to be 4.5 kg
(10 Ibs) per minute.  The slag quench water vaporization into the gas pur-
ifier had an estimated average between 2.3 and 4.5 kg (5 and 10 Ibs) per
minute.

     The quench water vaporized has absorbed heat from the kiln and the gas
purifier, respectively.  The heat used to vaporize the water is returned to
the process as the water vaporizes with an additional input of the sensible
heat of the supply water.  Therefore, the sensible heat input is calculated
by multiplying the mass input rate by the enthalpy of the cold water.

BOILER WATER INPUTS AND OUTPUTS

Cold Water Supply

     While instantaneous supply water flow measurements were made, the more
reliable differential readings of the totalizers on the softeners was used to
determine boiler feedwater flow rates.

     The cold water heat content was calculated by multiplying the mass flow
rate by the enthalpy of the softened water before the deaerating heater.  The
heat added in the deaerating heater is closed looped within the boiler
system.

Feedwater Pump Work

     During all tests monitored by SYSTECH the feedwater pump was driven by
an electric motor.  During some of the tests conducted by Monsanto the steam
turbine driven pump was utilized.  In Table B-7 the electric pump is shown to
have an electric energy demand of approximately 104.9 kw.  A portion of this
electrical energy input enters the thermal cycle and appears as pump work on
the feedwater.  The pump work, shown as an input to the feedwater prior to
entering the economizer/boiler, is calculated as follows.  Since the water is
highly incompressible, the equation P = m/vdp becomes P = m[v(p2-pi)].  To
account for units, the equation takes the form of:  P = 0.102 m vAp, where P
is in joules/min.  As an overall approximation, only an estimated 0.25 per-
cent of the input power enters the thermal cycle as pump work.  Similarly, in
the case of the steam driven pump, the pump work entering the cycle is
calculated in the same manner, and the percentage is the same.  The remaining
pump work is converted to heat and is rejected to the surroundings.

Delivered Steam

     Steam delivered to the Baltimore Gas and Electric Company was measured
using a totalizer meter located at the inlet to the utility steam main
located approximately one mile from the plant.  Readings were taken every
hour, hence only averaged steam flow values over a one hour time period are
available.  Measurements used were obtained by taking the difference between
two sequential readings.

Steam Line Losses

     Steam line  losses is a quantity which is very difficult to measure; it
was determined based on an accounting of inputs and discharges.  The
resulting differential was ascribed to losses.  The losses take the form of
steam actually lost through leaks and steam lost by condensation in the
delivery lines and vented to  the sewers through water traps.  Since no
accounting can be made on a regular basis, the lost steam was calculated on a
differential basis and reduced to a ratio based on line  pressure and temper-
ature.  This approach accounts for losses considering that the total leakage
area remains constant and that losses due to condensation are effected only
by the  steam temperature since the overall heat transfer coefficient remains
constant.  The mass flow of the  steam loss was calculated by multiplying the
boiler  steam pressure by 1.5  x lO"1*.

Deaerating Heater Vented Steam Loss

     To prevent  a buildup of  pressure, excess  steam is vented through a
nominal 3.81 cm  pipe  (1.5 in.) after the steam has bubbled to the water sur-
face.   The steam had been injected into the water from a pipe submerged in
the water.  The  steam leaving the water is, naturally, not saturated at
222°F and 35 kPa (5 psig); but,  during its progress through the vent pipe,
it expands and is assumed to  be  saturated at 379°K and 25 kPa  (3.6 psig).
At the  vent exit the steam  is assumed to be superheated  at 379°K and
atmospheric pressure.
                                     164

-------
     Assuming the pressure drop in the vent is due to friction pipe flow
losses, the flow can be calculated to be 4.8 kg (10.6 Ib) per minute.

     Heat lost in the vented steam is calculated by multiplying the vent
steam flow rate by the enthalpy of saturated steam at 379°K.  This value of
12.9 MJ/min was used for all the tests since the temperature and pressure
within the deaerating heater varies slightly.

Atomizing Steam Flow

     No instrumentation was available to measure the atomizing steam flow to
the fuel oil burners and, therefore, the steam flow was estimated based upon
design values.

     Each of the main kiln burners requires 6 kg (13.2 Ib) of steam per
minute at a burner head pressure of 725 kPa (105 psig).  The gas purifier
start-up burner requires 4.5 kg (10 Ib) of steam per minute while the steam
flow to the gas purifier pilot burner is 2 kg (4.5 Ib) per minute.  The
atomizing steam flow is constant since the steam flow to all burners is
maintained at all times during operation even when a burner is off.

     The heat input of the atomizing steam was determined by multiplying the
mass rate of the steam by its enthalpy.

Slowdown

     While not determined regularly, feedwater and boiler solids concentra-
tions (Table B-87) were measured to verify the design blowdown rate.   The
blowdown rates, calculated as a percentage of the feedwater rate,  agreed well
with the design 10 percent blowdown rate.

     For purposes of determining the boiler blowdown heat loss,  the blowdown
was considered to consist of water only,  and the enthalpy value  assumed was
that for saturated water at the boiler operating pressure.

THERMAL PROCESSING SUBSYSTEM BALANCES

     The purpose of this section is to describe the approach used  to deter-
mine representative mass and energy balances from all the data collected.   In
this section data from two sources are considered,  that taken by Systems
Technology Corporation and that taken during an earlier stage of the project
by Monsanto EnviroChem Corporation.  Two test points obtained by Systems
Technology Corporation are analyzed in detail to obtain an understanding of
the process mass and energy flows.   The two tests are the standby  test of
6/28/77 at 1530 and the refuse on-stream measured feed test of 7/1/77 at
0900.

     The remaining data taken by Systems Technology is analyzed  as a data set
to verify assumptions generated with the two previously mentioned  data points
and to obtain statistical understanding of process  variability.  The Monsanto
data are also treated as a data set and used to determine how well the
assumptions' made on earlier data sets fit this data,  how well the  data voids

can be filled by these assumptions, and the extent to which the process
varied from the operational character during Monsanto supervision of opera-
tions and subsequent operation by the City of Baltimore.

     The standby and on-stream tests are presented as a series of independent
measurements of various parameters, flow calculations, and analytical pro-
cesses to verify assumptions made concerning the process.  The standby and
on-stream tests are used together as complimentary data points although the
majority of the analysis is based on the standby test.  The standby and on-
stream summary section ties together the independent measurement sections
indicating how these data points compliment each other.

Standby and Measured Refuse On-Stream Test Discussion

     The lack of measured refuse flow test data makes the standby and single
measured refuse flow tests of paramount importance in the process and thermal
cycle analysis.  The standby test because of the elimination of unknown
process characteristics (waste heating value, mass flow, etc.) allows the
calculation of otherwise unattainable heat transfer losses.  The single
measured refuse flow test point is important from the standpoint that it
verifies the assumptions and generalized thermal calculations based on
standby operation.   The following narrative explains in general terms why
measurements were made the way they were,  why certain assumptions had to be
made, and how the specific detailed measurement and calculation segments
included in this section fit together.

     The first objective was to define gas flows at the kiln crossover
duct, gas purifier discharge,  and boiler/economizer discharge using the
methods discussed previously since air is  the major flow material.   It became
apparent during initial calculation comparisons that both the kiln crossover
duct and gas purifier discharge plans were not suitable measurement stations
and alternative methods were required to determine the gas flows  at those
points.   Fortunately, the boiler/economizer discharge duct provided an ideal
measurement station.   The measurement at this plane was,  therefore,  used as
the standard of comparison for other flow  measurements.   It was determined
that if the inputs  were all measured or estimated accurately enough,  the
sum did in fact approximate the boiler  discharge measurement.   Substantial
time was spent in correlating and determining procedures  for evaluating
combustion air flows  and quench air flows.   Discharged material,  residue,
slag, and spillback were estimated for  the refuse on-stream case  as well as
the minor inputs such as atomization steam and quench pit water vaporization.
The pressure of leakage air around the  ram feeder plug was estimated to be
the difference between the inputs and the  measured boiler discharge duct
flow.  Both fuel flow and refuse flows  were measured for  the two  tests under
consideration.   It  must be admitted that a material balance of these two
tests has an inherent inaccuracy since  ram leakage flows  were estimated from
"forced" balances.  A better evaluation of material flow  estimates  is seen in
the remainder of the  data obtained by SYSTECH where no leakage flow was
assumed.
                                    167

-------
     Heat flow for the standby test case although not simple, was completed
assuming a balance could be accurately made and thus pinpoint otherwise
incalculable heat flow rates.  Heat flow into the kiln for the standby test
consisted of sensible heat of the combustion air referenced to 273°K and the
higher heating value of the No. 2 fuel oil multiplied by the quantity of oil
was the major heat input to the kiln.  Other heat inputs were atomization
steam, quench pit water vapor, and ram leakage air.  All were evaluated as
shown in sections already discussed.  The kiln heat loss was estimated by
first calculating the heat transfer rate to determine the relative magnitude
of the loss rate, and more precisely calculated by balancing the discharge
heat flow at the crossover duct against the input heat flow.  The difference
was considered to be the kiln heat loss and was incorporated into a general-
ized heat loss equation based on the difference between kiln discharge
temperature and the ambient air temperature.

     Normally the heat loss from the gas purifier would be the next calcu-
lation, but since the temperature at the discharge of the gas purifier has
been established to be in error, no meaningful estimate of gas purifier
discharge heat can be obtained.  Hence, it was necessary to start at the
boiler discharge sampling station, and work upstream to determine this loss.

     The boiler discharge heat is easily calculated from the gas constituent
enthalpies and the gas component flow rates.  Moving upstream, the boiler/
economizer discharge duct heat loss was calculated and added to the discharge
heat flow.  The economizer surface heat loss rate was estimated to be 2.5
percent of the incoming heat flow based on experience with similar size and
types of economizers.  The heat flow from the boiler in the flue gas was
calculated algebraically from the estimated economizer heat loss rate and the
calculated economizer discharge heat rate, yielding a ratio of 1.0256 of the
incoming heat to the discharge heat.  The heat loss rate is then 0.0256 times
the calculated economizer inlet heat flow.  The boiler heat loss rate is
estimated to be approximately 1 percent of the boiler inlet heat flow, but
the heat transferred from the flue gas to the boiler water must first be
calculated.

     The preheater was balanced by calculating the heater skin losses and the
vent steam lost.  The cold feedwater heat was calculated based on flow rate
and its inlet enthalpy.  The two preheater losses are subtracted from the
feedwater inlet heat content indicating normal progression of feedwater
through the preheater.  At the same time, steam is condensed into the feed-
water raising its temperature inspite of losses caused by the elevated skin
temperatures.  The preheater steam essentially enters and leaves the pre-
heater without loss, effectively making a loop of the boiler and preheater.
After leaving the preheater, the hot water is pumped to boiler operating
pressure, picking up the pump work sensible heat, which is added to the
feedwater inlet heat content minus losses.  In the boiler, heat transferred
from the flue gas raises the water temperature creating steam.  In the
process, dissolved solids are precipitated and discharged in the blowdown
liquid.  The blowdown liquid represents a boiler heat loss.  The remaining
water is converted to steam and splits into three parts.  The first part is
preheater steam again, effectively making a cycle of the boiler and preheater
                                      168

without loss.  The second part of the steam is used for burner fuel atom-
ization and was previously calculated.  The remainder enters the export  steam
main for delivery to the Baltimore Gas and Electric Company.  The steam  flow
meter at this point unfortunately is not an accurate measurement and, there-
fore, export steam must be calculated in two parts.  Since the total feed-
water is well known, the preheater vent loss is known and the blowdown liquid
and atomization steam are known the remaining difference must be export
steam, but this value does not agree with steam flow arriving at the
B. G. & E. meter.  The reason for the discrepancy is line losses.  The line
losses are calculated from a generalized equation developed from the known
steam flow rate and the export steam calculated by differences from the
feedwater.

     At this point, all of the steam and water inputs and discharge rates for
the boiler are calculated a summation results in the net heat transferred in
the boiler.  By summing the heat transferred and the heat discharged the
inlet heat minus losses is known.  Hence, the boiler inlet heat equals 1.0101
multiplied by the heat transferred and the heat discharged.  The boiler loss
heat is 1 percent of this value.

     Moving to the next station upstream, there is a set of quench air ports
which admit cooling air for the purpose of reducing gas temperatures to below
the slag melting temperature.   This air carries sensible heat calculated from
the ambient temperature and mass flow rate.   The difference between the
quench air sensible heat and boiler inlet calculation heat flow rates is the
gas purifier discharge heat flow.  The difference between gas purifier inlet
and discharge heat flows is the heat loss, and a generalized loss equation is
developed.  At the same time since the gas purifier discharge mean temperature
is not evaluated by the facility thermocouple directly the mean temperature
can be determined from the average gas enthalpy.   A trial and error solution
determines the gas purifier mean discharge temperature.   A generalized
equation can be developed from this information to correct the indicated
facility measurements.

     An assumption made in all of the foregoing discussions has been the
knowledge of the steam quality produced.   In fact, no steam quality measure-
ments have been made at any time.  The steam generated by the boiler,
according to vendor specifications, is saturated at 99.5 percent quality
steam at the rated heat load,  but no measurements have been made to verify
this.  Also at heat loads below the rated value,  the boilers produce steam of
some again unknown quality.   As a result, it was necessary to assume that the
boiler is relatively typical of its type  and performs so.   It was further
assumed that the design is conservative enough to assure steam at heat loads
somewhat below rated.   A level of 90 percent of rated was decided upon as the
level at which saturated steam will be produced.   This may be somewhat
generous.   It was further decided that the boiler as a typical boiler would
not produce steam having less  than 95 percent quality at normally encountered
reduced heat loads.   For lack of better data these two points were connected
by a straight line to define a steam quality curve based on input heat
loading.  All results presented here use  this curve to predict the steam
quality.
                                    169

-------
     In the final analysis, the information desired about the boiler and
processing kiln is the efficiency.  The mass and energy balances for the
standby test are shown in Figures B-24 and B-25, respectively.  During the
standby test case the apparent efficiency of the thermal processing module
was 69 percent.  Of the heat reaching the boilers, 76 percent appeared as
useable heat in the form of steam.  By definition, the useable steam included
delivered steam, steam lost in the export steam line, and atomization steam.
The atomization steam would not be included as output steam when calculating
the efficiency of the thermal processing subsystem since it remains internal
to the system.  The overall thermal processing subsystem efficiency was
51 percent, not accounting for electrical power consumed by the subsystem.

     The best test of the validity of the estimates made using standby data
is analysis of a measured refuse feed test.  Figures B-26 and B-27 show the
mass and energy balances for this test.  Using the standby data to estimate
the heat loss, the energy imbalance is -800 MJ/min (758,000 Btu/min) or
20 percent of the total input heat.  The minus sign indicates that estimated
energy outputs were higher than the inputs.  This imbalance can be attributed
to numerous factors:  1) the actual heat content of the refuse may have been
higher than the laboratory analysis value, 2) the heat losses may have been
overestimated, 3) the actual steam production was very likely lower than the
measured value, and 4) the heat content and mass flow rate of the discharged
residue could have been less than the assumed average values, due to complete
combustion.

     The calculated on-stream test efficiencies were; 54 percent for the
thermal processing module, 98 percent for the heat recovery module (boiler)
and 52 percent for the total thermal processing subsystem.  The overall
subsystem efficiency is a realistic value but- the calculated boiler efficiency
is well above 80 percent, the design level for the waste heat boilers.  The
efficiency calculated for the thermal processing module is extremely low,
with the calculated outputs more than the inputs.  The magnitudes of error
introduced by the variables discussed above could reasonably account for this
occurrence.  The maximum variations from the average values used in the
balances for the refuse heat content, residue mass rate, and the residue heat
content were 40, 27 and 76 percent, respectively.


On-Stream Refuse Feed Tests Using Estimated Feed Rates

     A total of eight additional full data sets were obtained by Systems
Technology during the testing period 6/28/77 to 7/1/77.  During these tests,
no measured refuse flow data was obtained and all refuse flows were estimated
based on the average shredding rate and the height of refuse piled on the
conveyors.  This naturally does not allow for packing factor or density of
the refuse; resulting in inherent errors of unknown magnitude.

     In all of the eight estimated refuse feed tests no ram leak air was
assumed although it was present to some unknown degree in all cases.  Refuse
feed rate was estimated to be 530 kg/min. (35 tph) in all but the last case.
In that case, the refuse feed rate was noticeably lower and was estimated to
be 302 kg/min. (20 tph).

     In each test, the mass and energy balances were determined in the
manner already described.  The absolute value of the difference between the
summed inputs and the boiler/economizer discharge plane flow measurement for
seven of the eight mass balances averaged 3.6 percent.  The eighth case did
not have boiler/economizer discharge plane data for use as a standard.  The
standard deviation of this data is 2.5 percent with four of the seven cases
showing differences of less than 3 percent and no test having a difference
greater than 8 percent.

     Data of this caliber suggested that a statistical basis for correction
of the kiln and gas purifier measurements might be possible.  The deviation
of summed inputs from measured values was determined using the summed inputs
as a "true" value.  For the kiln crossover duct gas flow measurement the
average multiplication factor was 1.3526.  This means that the gas flow
values calculated from duct measurements should be multiplied by 1.3526 to
obtain actual flow values.  The standard deviation of error of the results
will be 12.6 percent.  For the gas purifier discharge measurement plane, the
measurement values should be multiplied by 0.6898 to obtain actual values.
The standard deviation of this calculation will be 7.1 percent.

     The energy balances of the eight refuse processing data sets had an
average difference of 7.9 percent with a standard deviation of 5.2 percent.

     Four data sets exceeded the 10 percent limit normally considered to be
an acceptable balance.  All but one of the data sets indicated that calcu-
lated outputs were higher than the inputs due to one or a combination of the
reasons discussed earlier.

     Calculated efficiency of the thermal processing module ranges from
50 to 64 percent.  The average efficiency was 61 percent with a standard
deviation of 4.6 percent.  The average calculated efficiency of the boilers
was 79 percent with a 7.8 percent standard deviation.  These data are biased
because all but one data set shows more heat leaving the system than
entering.  Thermal processing subsystem efficiencies range from 42 percent to
55 percent.  The average overall efficiency is 49 percent with a standard
deviation of 4.8 percent.

Analysis of Process Data Taken by Monsanto EnviroChem

     During the period from 11/3/76 to 1/24/77 Monsanto EnviroChem obtained a
total of 44 sets of operational data from the Baltimore Landgard® plant.
This included both standby and on-stream refuse feed tests.  None of the data
sets are complete in all respects though some are useable if reasonable
assumptions concerning similarity of operation are made.  In many cases, fuel
oil flows had to be assumed.  In numerous cases, steam flow had to be assumed
the same as a similar test point several hours apart.  Process airflow
through the fans in most cases was well documented.  In those cases where it
was not, the curves of flow vs. damper position were used to estimate the air
flow.  Quench air was varied using both the slotted control ring and the
butterfly valve.  When the slotted control ring was closed, it was assumed
that a minimal amount of leakage air still entered the port although this is
                                     174

-------
not an important percentage.  No leakage air around the ram plug was  assumed
although it was probably present to some degree in all cases.  Burner ato-
mization steam and quench water were estimated in the same manner as  during
tests documented by Systems Technology.  Boiler steam generation, and boiler
and duct losses were estimated using the equations developed using the standby
data obtained by Systems Technology.  Kiln and gas purifier heat losses and
temperatures were estimated in the same manner.  Refuse feed rate for these
tests is better documented than data obtained by Systems Technology.

     During several of the tests, the feedwater pump was driven by a  steam
turbine.  The steam for this purpose was not measured in any way, and had to
be calculated by first determining the feedwater flow rate and the pressure
rise.  Using this information, the feedwater pump performance curve was
entered to determine pump efficiency.  Pump work output was then divided by
the efficiency factor to obtain pump work input.  Using the assumed input
steam quality/enthalpy and the turbine exhaust steam enthalpy, the theoretical
steam required was calculated by dividing required energy input by the steam
enthalpy difference to obtain the required steam flow.  This number was
reevaluated by dividing by an assumed turbine efficiency of 90 percent to
obtain a calculated steam usage.  The turbine exhaust steam enthalpy  was
obtained by starting with the assumed turbine inlet steam enthalpy and
expanding the steam isentropically to a pressure 69 kPa (10 psig) above the
deaerating heater operating pressure.  The deaerating heater is the exhaust
receiver for the turbine discharge steam.  Since this procedure does not
result in an exact balance of steam with preheat steam around the preheater-
boiler cycle the calculation is repeated with a new feedwater flow rate until
the cycle balances.  Note that the quantity of boiler feedwater pumped by the
feedwater pump is effected by the pump's steam turbine discharge rate.

     The energy balance for the ten useable Monsanto data sets (Table B-88)
ranged from 0.01 percent unaccounted energy imbalance.   The mean or the
differences was 2.8 percent with a 2.3 percent standard deviation indicating
that the data obtained is representative of actual conditions.   The efficiency,
of the thermal processing module averaged 66.8 percent with a standard
deviation of 4.6 percent.  This compares quite favorably with the process
efficiency indicated by data obtained by Systems Technology.   The conclusion
which can be drawn from these results is that there is essentially no
difference in process operation between the Monsanto and Systech data.

     A different situation exists for the boiler data.   During these tests a
portion of the boiler inlet gases bypassed the boiler by flowing through the
jug valve.   Monsanto data indicates that boiler,  on the average,  only
62 percent of the energy discharged by the thermal processing module was
converted to steam.  Comparing this to the Systech data,  indications are that
sealing of the jug valve improved boiler steam production approximately
20 percent.   This is a significant improvement and should justify the city's
decision to eliminate that equipment item.   As a result of the low boiler
steam production the thermal processing subsystem efficiency is 41.2 percent
with a standard deviation of 4.2 percent.

Evaluation of Economizer Performance

     Economizer effectiveness was evaluated in a rather simplistic manner
with several assumptions.  First, the economizer water inlet temperature
differed significantly between the two economizers.  The first having a
temperature essentially the same as the deaerating heater discharge tempera-
ture.  The second economizer water inlet temperature averaged 11 to 17°K
(20 to 30°R) higher than the deaerating heater discharge temperature.  This
must be an instrument error because only heat loss can occur to the water in
the connecting piping, and therefore, the lower of the two temperatures was
used as an economizer inlet temperature for both economizers.  The water flow
split between the two economizer/boiler systems is not known and since the
two economizer water discharge temperatures remained less than 3°K (5°R)
apart for all data recorded the average of the two temperatures was used as
the discharge temperature for both.  Heat transferred to the water was
calculated as the product of the water flow and temperature difference since
for the pressure-temperature range of interest the specific heat averages for
liquid water is approximately 1.0.  The water flow used was the sum of the
cold feedwater and preheat steam minus the preheater vent steam loss.

     Heat recovered by the economizers ranged from a low of 17.6 percent for
the standby case, to 26.9 percent for a total heat transferred by the two
boiler/economizers combination.  The mean percentage of heat transferred by
the economizers appears to be approximately 20.5 percent.  The data standard
deviation is 2.4 percent.

     Since the economizers are essentially extensions of the boilers, this
quantity of heat would be lost without the economizers.   In other words,
without the economizers, approximately 20 percent of the heat presently
recovered would be lost.  This is particularly important since the economizers
are going to be removed during the ongoing modifications.

                                 INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

     In this section Arthur Young & Company, an accounting firm that was sub-
contracted to perform the economic evaluation, describes the nature of the
costs associated with the construction and operation of the Landgard system and
presents costs projections on various plant operating and system character-
istics.  The presentation of costs is in accordances with the Office of Solid
Waste Management Program's Accounting Format.  To achieve a clear understand-
ing of the organization of the section the reader should first familiarize
himself with this format since it describes the manner in which cost data on
resource recovery systems should be presented.

     The EPA Accounting Format was developed to facilitate economic compar-
isons of resource recovery systems.  Accordingly, two formats are designed
which reflect "actual" and "normalized" resource recovery system costs and
revenues.  The normalized accounting format removes the site specific aspects
of the parameters affecting plant costs (e.g., cost of land, labor rate) and
compensates for varying local conditions.   The actual accounting format is
designed to reflect costs and revenues of a resource recovery system incor-
porating the site-specific parameters.  Thus, the latter format captures the
actual costs and revenues.

     The standardized accounting format consists of three components:   capital
costs, operating and maintenance costs, and revenues.   The capital costs
format categorizes cost by land, site preparation,  design,  construction,  real
equipment, other equipment,  contingencies,  start-up and working capital,  and
finance and legal costs.  The operating and maintenance format categorizes
costs by salaries, employee benefits,  fuel, electricity,  water and sewer,
maintenance, replacement equipment, residue removal,  other overhead,  taxes
and licenses, insurance, management fees,  and professional services.   The
revenue format categorizes revenues by recovered material.   Definitions of
the subcategorizations are contained in EPA's Accounting Format (Section C-7).
It should be clearly understood that the guidelines and classifications of
costs do not conform to Generally Accepted Accounting  Principles  (GAAP).
This is discussed at length in Section C-8.

     The accumulation of costs and revenues from the above formats yield the
following outcomes:

     o    Average annual capital costs
     o    Capital cost per throughput ton

                                      235

-------
     o    Total annual operating and maintenance costs
     o    Operating and maintenance costs per ton
     o    Total revenues per throughput ton
     o    Net operating cost/profit

     In addition, in accordance with the Request for Proposal, capital and
operating and maintenance costs are allocated to seven cost centers.  The
cost centers correspond to major subsystems:  Receiving; Size Reduction;
Storage and Recovery; Thermal Processing; Energy Recovery; Residue Separation;
and General Plant.  Thus, an additional outcome is the derivation of respec-
tive subsystem costs.

     Due to the erratic operating status of the plant and continuing equipment
modifications, certain major adjustments to the approach were utilized in the
economic evaluation.  Three hypothetical operating scenarios were derived by
SYSTECH and utilized by Arthur Young & Company to support the accumulation
and projection of capital and operating costs.  These scenarios account for
the inoperation of specific subsystems (i.e., the material recovery and gas
scrubber system) and the necessity for specific plant improvements (i.e., the
electrostatic precipitator).  Additionally, the scenarios compensate for the
limited and erratic operating status of the plant by providing projected
costs and revenues based on varying degrees of plant operating reliability.
Thus, the accounting formats depict projected versus actual costs and revenues.

     The scenario parameters presented regarding plant operating status have
been determined by utilizing the actual operating history of the Baltimore
Landgard plant with operating experience from other industrial plants of
similar character.  As in any projection, the estimates for Scenarios 2 and 3
are aimed at showing potential operating capabilities of the plant and should
be considered as order of magnitude values.

     The scenarios are primarily distinguished by their varying operating
status.  The first scenario's operating status corresponds to the plant's
performance during the November 1976 to July 1977 period and is characterized
by frequent plant shutdowns.  The second scenario's operating status is based
on an expanded operating staff and more efficient administrative procedures.
It is estimated that the above changes in plant operation can increase by
more than twofold the average continuous plant operating period.  The third
scenario's estimates are based on the most optimistic operating conditions
likely to occur given the projected equipment improvements presently being
initiated.  As a result, it represents the highest continuous plant operating
period which is based on expected improvements in plant reliability.  In the
discussion on operating and maintenance costs, the manner in which scenario
parameters were derived is further explained.
                                        236

                                  SECTION C-2

                     DESCRIPTION OF THE ACCOUNTING SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION

     Originally it was intended that all plant capital and operating and
maintenance costs would be derived from the City of Baltimore's accounting
system.  Capital costs were largely derived in this manner (modifications to
capital costs were made to account for expected subsystem replacements).
However, operating and maintenance costs were derived based on projected
plant operating scenarios.  This approach was adopted due to the City's
modified accrual accounting system and the erratic operation of the plant
during the demonstration period.

     Presented here is a description of the City's accounting system.  Incom-
patibilities of the City's accounting system with EPA's format system cannot
accurately depict operating and maintenance costs over a given period.  In
addition, the funds in use and chart of accounts (cost categories under each
fund) are described, with accounts comprising costs related to the Pyrolysis
Plant specifically delineated.

     The City's accounting system is organized and operated on a fund basis
which is typical of a municipality.  In the accounting sense, a fund is
defined as an independent fiscal and accounting entity with a self balancing
set of accounts in which all financial activity related to specific objectives
is segregated and recorded.  The segregation and recording of financial
activity for specific objectives is performed in accordance with special
regulations, restrictions, or limitations.

FUNDS IN USE

     The City maintains several funds within its accounting structure
including:

     o    The General Fund which is used primarily to account for the
          expenditures of general government.

     o    Special Revenue Funds which are used to account for particular
          revenues such as Federal Revenue Sharing and grants or funds
          assigned for specific purposes.

     o    Debt Service Funds which account for the payment of interest of
          outstanding long-term City obligations.


                                      237

-------
     o    Capital Project Funds in which capital outlays are recorded for
          the construction of various facilities.

     o    Enterprise Funds which are maintained to account for those
          activities which are designed to be self sustaining or supporting.
          Examples of this type fund are the golf course, civic center,
          and water operation funds.

     o    Intragovernment -Service Funds which are used to account for
          those activities that essentially provide service to other
          governmental units such as a municipal postal operation, a
          central supply store, or a central laundry facility.

     o    Trust and Agency Funds which account for those funds of others
          which are held in trust.  An example is funds held to provide
          retirement benefits for the City employees.

     o    Special Assessment Funds which are used to account for the
          activity of any levy made by the City which is meant to finance
          only a specific activity such as off-street parking facilities
          which are privately owned but City financed.

     In addition to maintaining the above funds within the accounting system,
the City also maintains a General Fixed Asset group of accounts and a General
Long-Term Debt group of accounts.  These accounts reflect the acquisition of
tangible assets used to conduct the general functions of government, such as
small item purchases, and the issuance and retirement of long-term debt
instruments.

     The financial activities which specifically relate to the construction
and maintenance of the Baltimore Landgard plant, including grant funds
received, are recorded in the General Fund and Capital Projects Fund.

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING APPLICABLE TO LANDGARD PROJECT

     The City of Baltimore accounting records, and subsequently the financial
statements, of the General Fund and Capital Projects Fund are maintained or
prepared on a modified accrual basis of accounting.  Under a modified accrual
basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when received in cash, except
revenues which are considered both measurable and available for current year
appropriation financing.  Expenses are recorded when liabilities are incurred,
regardless of when an outflow of cash is experienced, except for accrual
annual leave which is reflected in expenses when actually paid.  As a result,
operating and maintenance costs recorded during the given time period may not
represent actual incurred costs.  Rather, these costs may cover expenses
attributed to other time periods.  For example, fuel purchased in May would
be expended in full for that period.  However, the quantity purchased may
cover a six month consumption period.  Therefore, the fuel costs for May
would be overstated.
                                      238

CHART OF ACCOUNTS AND INTERNAL COST IDENTIFICATION

     The City of Baltimore maintains a chart of accounts which permits
varying degrees of cost/revenue identification depending on whether Balance
Sheet (capital costs) or Income Statement (revenues and operating and
maintenance costs) accounts are under consideration.  The account format used
by the City is as follows:

     o    Operating Expense identification available through utilization
          of the chart of accounts consists of the following items with
          examples relating to the Pyrolysis Plant provided in
          parenthesis:

               -  Fund (General Fund)
               -  Department (Refuse Disposal)
               -  Activity (Pyrolysis Plant)
               -  Class of Expense (Operations, Maintenance and Repair, or

FINANCIAL REPORTS AND LEDGERS AVAILABLE

     On a periodic basis, the City produces  the following  reports  and  ledgers:

     o    The Annual Financial Report
     o    The Monthly Financial Report (further discussed  below)
     o    Detailed Monthly Journals and  Ledgers
                                      239

-------
The Monthly Financial Report^is presented in three formats.

     o    The Level I Report is a summary monthly financial statement at
          program level (Refuse Disposal)

     o    The Level II Report is a cumulative summary financial statement
          with additional data provided such as method of Refuse
          Disposal (Pyrolysis Plant)

     o    The Level III Report provides detailed data in the form of a
          listing of all transactions, by program and each transaction
          for each program (e.g., Refuse Disposal), by activity (e.g.,
          Pyrolysis Plant), object summary (e.g., Salaries and Wages),
          and sub-object (e.g., Regular Salaries)

     o    In addition to the detailed Level III Report for operating
          expenses, a similar report entitled the Capital Expenditure
          Extract is prepared which details each transaction and cost
          over the life of a project.  The Capital Expenditure Extract
          details tranactions by capital project fund (e.g., Sanitation),
          by program (e.g., Incinerator), by project (e.g., Pyrolysis
          Plant), sub-projects (Design and Studies), and by sub-object
          (e.g., Consultants).

     All costs relating to the Pyrolysis Plant were researched and accumulated
from the Level III Report  (operating.and maintenance expenses) and the Capital
Expenditure Extract.

GENERAL COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS OF CITY ACCOUNTING
SYSTEM AS APPLICABLE TO LANDGARD

     In relation to the determination of costs per EPA guidelines specific
incompatibilities of the municipal accounting system include the following:

     o    Costs are not accumulated by functional cost center as identi-
          fied by EPA.  This precludes accurate accumulation of costs for
          comparison of different waste recovery systems.

     o    Transactions are recorded on a modified accrual basis rather
          than an Enterprise Fund.  The modified accrual basis does not
          provide for a proper matching of revenue and expense.  As a
          result, such transactions as the purchase of fuel is recorded
          as fully expensed in the period purchased, whether or not the
          quantities of fuel are consumed in total during that period.
          This creates distortions in recorded expenses.

     o    Capital assets are not subject to depreciation, thereby under-
          yearly operating and maintenance expenses.

     Currently, the City is accounting for the Landgard operating expenses
under the General Fund on  a modified accrual basis.  In municipal accounting
such activities are normally accounted for in an Enterprise Fund.  Enterprise


                                      240

-------
Funds by their nature employ full accrual accounting procedures.  A full
accrual accounting system is one whereby revenues are recorded when earned
and expenses are recorded when incurred.  It is through this basis of
accounting that a realistic and meaningful relationship between revenues and
expenses can be developed.  This proper matching of revenues and expenses is
necessary for true net income or loss measurement to be achieved.   Therefore,
if an operation such as the Pyrolysis Plant were expected to pay at least in
part for its operation through the sale of processing by-products, the full
accrual basis of accounting would be most appropriate.  If a full accrual
system were employed, depreciation on the plant facilities would also be
recorded as an expense over some estimated useful life of the facility, and
through the Enterprise Fund, would be recognized as a bona-fide expense of
doing business.

     The above mentioned differences in accounting approaches (between EPA,
municipal practices, and GAAP) should be carefully considered when comparing
Landgard economics with those of other processes employing resource recovery
from solid waste.

                                 SECTION C-3

                                CAPITAL COSTS
INTRODUCTION

     The most basic element in examining the economics of the Baltimore
Landgard Plant is the determination of incurred costs.  Every activity under-
taken as part of the design, construction, and operation of the facility is
included in these costs; and once these costs are determined they must be
categorized as either capital costs or operating costs.  In this section,
capital costs relating to the Baltimore Landgard Plant are examined.

     Capital costs of a waste treatment plant include the cost of such
property or asset until it has been placed in position and properly operating.
All costs incurred in placing an asset in this status are proper inclusions
of the capital cost.

     Once the capital costs incurred by the City of Baltimore were identified,
they were classified according to EPA guidelines.  The guidelines included
two formats.  The first format coincides with the Office of Solid Waste
Management Program's Accounting Format (Section C-7).  Under this format,
capital costs are subcategorized as Land, Site Preparation, Design, Construc-
tion, Real Equipment, Other Equipment, Contingencies, Start up and Working
Capital, and Financing and Legal.

     The second format coincides with the seven EPA delineated cost centers
(as cited in the Request for Proposal) which are:

     o    Receiving
     o    Size reduction
     o    Storage and recovery
     o    Thermal processing
     o    Energy recovery
     o    Residue separation
     o    General plant

Each of the cost centers correspond to a plant subsystem, thus, providing for
an economic analysis and comparison of subsystems costs.

     The guidelines from the Accounting Format are not consistent with
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  The conditions and extent of the
departure from Generally Accepted Accounting Principles are discussed in
Section C-8.
                                       242

METHODOLOGY

     Costs billed for the Pyrolysis Plant were identified through examination
of the City of Baltimore's accounting records.  As previously described in
the "Description of City Accounting System," capital expenditures related to
the Pyrolysis Plant are charged to Capital Projects Fund accounts.  All of
Monsanto's Original Contract expenditures and most, but not all, of the
Supplemental Agreement expenditures are contained in these accounts.*

     Once expenditures relating to the capital costs were ascertained, a
research and review of the Capital Extract listing was made.  The Extract
categorizes all expenditures by class description (i.e., Extra Work, Design &
Studies, Site, Inspection, Structures, Utilities, Furniture and General; see
Table C-l).  Under each class description there is a cumulative listing of
the voucher or check numbers which represent cost transactions.  Through an
examination of selected source documents relating to the voucher/check
numbers, approximately 98 percent of the Extract costs were researched.
Expenditures were investigated and scrutinized to determine whether they
were (1) were properly chargeable to the project, (2) were properly classified
as capital expenditures as opposed to operating expenses, (3) were materially
accurate for reclassification per EPA guidelines and cost centers.

     During the detailed review, certain adjustments to the reported amounts
were necessary because certain operating and maintenance costs were charged
as capital expenditures, and vice versa.

     Additionally, certain costs were difficult to classify per EPA class-
ifications, and as a result, some deviations to the EPA guidelines were
necessary.  These classification deviations included the following:

     o    Site Preparation:  The inclusion of the cost of improvements
          to the raw land including, but not limited to, roads, side
          walks, curbs, and landscaping; in addition to the specified
          costs of relocating present tenants and disposal site prepara-
          tion.

     o    Land:  The inclusion of raw land and landscaping costs,  in
          addition to land acquisition costs.

     It was also ascertained that, due to insufficient data, many expenditures
cannot be separated as to their Construction and Real Equipment components.
To segregate costs by Construction and Real Equipment it is necessary to have
access to engineering estimates which include the labor input factor per
equipment item.  However, this data was not available.   This situation was
particularly acute for expenditures related to the Supplemental Agreement.
For the most part, the Supplemental Agreement invoices exhibited integrated
cost items encompassing both Construction and Real Equipment.
     *As of,March 3, 1977, costs of $404,593 which were incurred by Mxmsanto
for the construction of the plant were not recorded in the Capital Expenditure
Extract.

-------
     The Monsanto Original Contract invoices were generally itemized  (i.e.,
design, engineering, procurement, etc.).  The invoices did not provide
sufficient detail to identify or allocate costs to specific equipment items.
Therefore, Original Contract allocation to cost centers were made on the
basis of Monsanto's computer printout which delineated costs to equipment
items from the generalized invoices.

     The results of the capital cost analysis are illustrated in Tables C-2
and C-3.  Table C-2 displays the costs in accordance with EPA Accounting
Format.  Table C-3 displays the costs in accordance with EPA's delineated
cost centers.

     As illustrated, the net capital costs in each exhibit are equal and
total $20,532,416.   This results from adding the $404,593 in unbilled costs
incurred by Monsanto to the $20,127,823 in costs recorded in the Capital
Expenditure Extract (Table C-l).

EXCLUSIONS AND ADDITIONS

     To facilitate economic comparison with other resource recovery systems,
the capital costs were adjusted to state more accurately the costs that would
be incurred if the plant were duplicated elsewhere.  Therefore, as part of
the financial review of the capital costs incurred on the Pyrolysis Plant, an
investigation of certain cost exclusions and additions to the project were
performed.

     These adjustments account for the plant's experimental status, the
inoperation and replacement of plant subsystems, and the inclusion of speci-
fied EPA cost elements not included in the Capital Expenditure Extract.   The
cost exclusions/additions relating to replaced and inoperative subsystems are
consistent with the scenario parameter development by SYSTECH for the pro-
jection of operating and maintenance costs.   A discussion of these additional
adjustments follows.

Unique and Non-Recurring Costs

     Unique costs attributable to the Baltimore Plant's status as a demon-
stration project would not recur if a similar faculty were built elsewhere.
These include costs of annual engineering services,  research and development,
extra shakedown costs, unanticipated construction modifications and additional
performance testing.

     An analysis of all recorded costs revealed that such unique and non-
recurring costs were contained within Monsanto's Original Contract costs and
Supplemental Agreement costs.  Of the $14,742,000 in Original Contract costs
approximately $1,648,649 (11.2 percent)  were defined by Monsanto EnviroChem
Systems as "Unique and Non-recurring" if a similar facility were built
elsewhere.  Monsanto's breakdown of the costs is as  follows;

Thus, all original conctact costs were deflated by 11.2 percent to compensate
for the inclusion of non-recurring costs attributable to the experimental
status of the plant.

     The Supplemental Agreement also contained cost items considered as
unique, and non-recurring, and attributed to the plant's status as a demonstra-
tion project.  Of the $3,804,385 in Supplemental Agreement costs, $3,084,517
of these costs' were identified as non-recurring (unanticipated plant modifica-
tion and replacement costs).  The $3,084*517 iti non-recurring costs were
derived through a detailed review of Supplemental Agreement expenditures.
All cost items were classified as either exclusions or additions to the total
project costs.  Exclusions reflected those costs which, if corrective measures
were taken, would not be duplicated elsewhere.  For example, expenditures
which covered defective design, incorrect placement, general repair costs,
and replacement items were categorized as exclusions.  Additions reflected
costs which were recurring in nature.  These included typical installation
and procurement costs for the placement of assets in operation.  All categori-
zation of Supplemental Agreement costs were corroborated by the Plant Manager.
In Section C-9, the categorization of Supplemental Agreement cost items are
presented.

Contributed or Nominal Cost Items

     Through inquiries and examinations of the plant's assets and the City of
Baltimore's accounting records, no capital contributions were found to be
associated with the project.

Residue Separation and Gas Scrubber Systems

     Due to the nonfunctioning status of the residue separation and gas
scrubber systems, the costs associated with these systems were deducted from
total capital costs.  First, all equipment items dnd their respective costs
included in each of the system costs were identified.  Once system costs were
obtained, they were broken down by source (i.e., the Original Contract and
Supplemental Agreement).  To compensate for prior cost adjustments, the last
     *This amount was imputed by Arthur Young & Company as the profit associ-
ated with the unique and non-recurring costs (11.2 petcent of a total profit
of $1,021,600).

                                       248

-------
 step involved the restating of costs to reflect the deflation of Original
 Contract costs and the Supplemental Agreement Cost exclusions.

      Indirect costs associated with general plant expenditures  that were
 included in the residue separation system costs have been deducted on a
 proportional basis.   Since the electrostatic precipitator (ESP)  is replacing
 the gas  scrubber system,  it was assumed that the gneral  plant expenditures
 associated  with the gas scrubber system would be reallocated  to  the ESP.
 The costs imputed for the residue separation and gas scrubber systems were
 $1,031,218  and $696,306,  respectively.

 Electrostatic Precipitator

      The City of Baltimore has authorized funds to be expended  for the
 construction of an electrostatic precipitator (ESP)  to replace  the gas
 scrubber system.   As  a result,  plant capital costs were  adjusted to reflect
 the cost of the ESP and the exclusion of the gas scrubber system.   The cost
 of  the ESP  was estimated  at $2,571,500  based on City of  Baltimore contract
 awards.

 Residue  Disposal

      As  required by the EPA Accounting  Format,  part of the total capital costs
 incurred for  the Pyrolysis  Plant were to include residue disposal costs.   To
 accomplish  this,  it was necessary to determine  the portion of the development
 costs of the  appropriate  landfill attributable  to  the Pyrolysis  Plant.

      Landfill  costs were  based  on the cost  and  capacity  of  the City's
 current  landfill  servicing  the  Pyrolysis  Plant,  yielding  a  cost  per cubic
 meter.   By  estimating  the number  of  cubic meters necessary  for the  disposal
 of  residue  for  the plant  over its  useful  life,  it was  then  possible to derive
 landfill costs.   SYSTECH  had recorded data  on processed waste weight reduction
 and bulk density  per cubic meter.  A detailed description of how landfill
 costs were  computed and allocated  to  the  EPA classifications is contained in
 Section  C-10.

      The three  operating  scenarios affect landfill costs due to varying plant
 throughput rates.  Subsequently, the amount of waste processed affects
 imputed  residue disposal  costs.  As a result, three landfill disposal costs
 are presented.

 Indirect Costs

     As  required by the EPA Accounting Format, all indirect costs attributable
 to  the plant but not recorded in any formal manner were to be  included in the
 total capital costs.

     Indirect costs which were not recorded as part of the Pyrolysis Plant
project consisted of financing and legal costs.   Recorded within the City of
Baltimore accounting records were approximately $60,000 for this type expense.
An examination of the $60,000 in expenditures revealed that they did not
                                      249

-------
relate to the issuance of bonds.  As a result of unrecorded bond finance and
legal costs in the Capital Funds account for the Pyrolysis Plant, we imputed
a cost utilizing a 2 percent rate suggested for normalization of costs in the
EPA guidelines (also see EPA Financing, SW-1573, p. 14, Table 2).  This rate
was applied to the total capital costs for each of the three operating
scenarios.

     Although the City did not issue bonds for the total capital cost of the
project, total costs were applied to the 2 percent rate to facilitate compar-
ison with other resource recovery systems which do not receive State or
Federal grants.

Restatement of Capital Costs in 1977 Dollars

     In order to present plant replacement costs in the current year, all
capital costs were restated in second quarter 1977 dollars.  This methodology
involved developing conversion factors for each cost segment (i.e., Original
Contract, Supplemental Agreement, electrostatic precipitator, landfill costs,
finance charges, and other costs) and applying these conversion factors to
each cost segment's prior dollar amount.  The conversion factors were derived
from the Federal Reserve Composite Wholesale Industrial Index and the con-
struction period of the cost segment (Table C-4).  Table C-5 illustrates the
impact of the exclusions and additions on total capital costs.

CLASSIFICATION OF COSTS PER EPA's ACCOUNTING FORMAT

     Capital costs incurred and subsequently adjusted were then classified
according to EPA guidelines set forth in the "Accounting Format" (Section C-7).
To complete EPA's capital cost format, the estimated useful life of the
facility and total interest to be paid, had to be determined.

Estimated Useful Life of the Facility

     The useful life of the facility was determined through reference to
Internal Revenue Service guidelines for depreciable assets.  The IRS depre-
ciation regulations, as set out in Rev. Proc. 72-10, state that the useful
life for solid waste disposal plants has a lower limit of 14.5 years.  With
due consideration given to the fact that the Pyrolysis Plant is experimental,
the utilization of the lower limit useful life seems appropriate.

     As a means of testing the validity of the 14.5 year useful life inquiries
were made of select vendors.  Table C-6 lists the results of the inquiry of
respective vendors.

     On a cost basis, the estimated useful life based on the above equipment
items is between 17 and 18 years.  This does not greatly differ from the IRS
lower limit.

Interest to be Paid

     The Baltimore Landgard project was primarily financed through:
(1) proceeds from the sale of City owned real estate which was designated

and (2) grants obtained from the State of Maryland ($4 million) and the
Federal Government ($7 million).

     Since the interest expense incurred by the City of Baltimore associated
with the construction of the plant was minimal, a cost was imputed which
would represent total debt financing charges.  The latest issuance of debt in
the City of Baltimore was in April 1977.  The effective yield on the bond was
5.3 percent.  Using this most recent interest rate and assuming a 20-year
maturity on the bonds, the imputed finance costs for the project are derived
in accordance with EPA guidelines (for each of the scenario costs).

     The summary capital costs in accordance with EPA's Accounting Format
are presented in Table C-7.  As indicated there are wide variations  in costs
per Mg.  This is primarily due to projected differences in the operating
reliability of the plant (i.e., in Scenario 1 the number of operating days is
projected at 104 as opposed to the Scenario 3 estimate of 312 days).

CLASSIFICATION OF COSTS PER EPA's COST CENTERS

     In the Request for Proposal, EPA delineated seven cost centers  to which
all capital costs should be identified.   These cost  centers include:

     o    Receiving
     o    Size reduction
     o    Storage and recovery
     o    Thermal processing
     o    Energy recovery
     o    Residue separation
     o    General plant

     All cost elements identified as General Plant were to be reallocated on
a proportional basis according to dollar amount to the remaining six cost
                                      253

centers.  Once accomplished,  the six remaining cost centers would be  identified
with one of three major  systems as follows:

          Residue Separation                      Residue Separation

     Some modification was necessary due to the elimination of the residue
separation system and the addition of the electrostatic precipitator.  There-
fore, summary costs were presented for only five cost centers.

     All capital costs identified through the Capital Expenditures Extract as
well as additional equipment  expenditures, were researched for reclassification
by cost center.  For the most part, all Capital Expenditures Extract  costs,
exclusive of those pertaining to the Original Contract and Supplemental
Agreement, due to their  cost nature (e.g., legal, land acquisition, and site
preparation) were classified under General Plant.

     A detailed listing  of major plant equipment items was prepa*red from as-
built drawings, operation manuals, and Monsanto computer printouts.  All costs
extracted from the Original Contract and Supplemental Agreement computer
printouts were then identified, to the extent possible, with the listing of
majdr equipment items.   This was determined through utilization of Monsanto's
Original Contract cost coding system which identified costs to specific equip-
ment items.  For the Supplemental Agreement, the invoices contained sufficient
detail to identify costs with equipment items.   Costs not identified with a
major equipment item were charged directly to cost centers based on Monsanto's
coincident cost center coding.  (A more detailed discussion of the classifi-
cation of costs is presented in Section C-ll).

     Once costs had been identified with major  equipment items,  all equipment
items were identified with one of the cost centers based on the  extent to
which an equipment's function corresponded to a cost center's  performance
characteristics.

     Summary cost center distributions are presented in Tables C-8 and C-9.
In Table C-8,  the impact of the exclusions and  additions to the  cost center
distributions are presented.   Table C-9 presents  the final capital cost
allocation for each of the three scenarios.   The  conversion of these cost
center summaries into subsystem costs results as  shown in Table  C-10.

      Dollar amounts for receiving and energy recovery decrease because of the method of allocation.
      The indirect costs (general plant) are allocated based on each remaining cost center's relative
      percentage of direct costs.  As thermal processing direct costs increase, their subsequent
      share of the interest costs increases, resulting in decreased costs for receiving and energy
      recovery.

formats are presented, a standardized accounting format, and a normalized
accounting format.

     The standardized accounting format and its assumptions are designed to
reflect the costs and revenues of a system incorporating the site-specific
parameters.  This gives recognition to varying local conditions such as labor
rates, etc.

     The normalized -accounting format also reflects costs and revenues, but
removes the site specific aspects of the parameters affecting plant costs.
This enables a comparison to be made of different facilities by examining cost
differences due to variances in plant design.

     The Accounting Format provides guidelines and instructions for converting'
costs to a normalized basis.  The results of this normalization for itjhe
Pyrolysis Plant are presented in Table C-ll.                        \n

     Due to unavailable detailed cost information, only 10 percent o*f, the   ;
total capital costs could be normalized.  Cost components which could not be
normalized include construction, real equipment, and other equipment,.  The
construction cost could not be adjusted because of lack of information ;con-
cerning man-hours and overall labor input.  Equipment costs could not be  i
adjusted due to the lack of information for segregating freight costs.

                                 SECTION C-4

                       OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE COSTS
INTRODUCTION

     The intent of the scope of work for the Baltimore Evaluation was to set
forth the actual costs incurred for operation and maintenance at the
Pyrolysis Plant.  These expenditures relate to the acquiring of property or
benefits that do not extend beyond the current accounting period.  Once
ascertained, these costs were to be classified according to EPA guidelines
set forth in the Accounting Format (Section C-7), distributed to EPA
established cost centers, and "normalized" in accordance with EPA's Accounting
Format guidelines.  However, certain major adjustments to this approach were
agreed upon between the contract officer and SYSTECH and are discussed in
detail in the following section.

METHODOLOGY

     Due to the discontinuous plant operations and the incompatibility of the
City accounting records with respect to EPA guidelines, the initial approach
of auditing and gathering of historical information was not possible.
As an alternative, operating and maintenance costs were projected utilizing
engineering and operating specifications provided by SYSTECH.

     Parameters and data were provided by SYSTECH for three separate sets of
operating conditions.  All costs which are ultimately reflected in the EPA
classification categories were based on this scenario approach.  Table C-12
illustrates the three sets of scenario parameters.  In addition, Table C-13
presents unit costs for the pertinent operating and maintenance components.
Arthur Young & Company cannot confirm the accuracy of the projected costs
included in the forecasts.

     As illustrated in Table C-12, the operating status of the plant has been
broken into four categories:  downtime, heating and cooling of the process
area, standby, and normal processing.  Each of the scenarios reflect a
different level of plant operation.

     Scenario 1 is based entirely on actual plant operating history during
the nine month period from December 1976 to August 1977.  During this period,
the plant operated on an average of less than two weeks continuously and was
shut down approximately six days between operating runs.  This average cycle
continued throughout the operating period monitored.  Thus, during the course
of the year, the plant would be shut down 24 times for a period of 6.5 days
per shutdown.  Further, each time the plant was shut down, there was an

accompanying one day period for cooling the system prior to the downtime and
a one day period for heating the system in preparation for operation.
Therefore, the 24 shutdowns led to 48 days of plant unavailability.  During
the demonstration, it was decided to halt the processing of waste on Sunday
to allow the staff to perform necessary maintenance functions.  Process
temperatures were maintained by firing additional fuel oil.  This scheduled
standby time accounted for another 23 days per year of plant unavailability.
Emergency maintenance or process deviations (upsets) accounted for an
additional day and one half of standby per operating week, or a yearly total
of 33 days of additional standby.  Thus, on a yearly basis, the plant is
available for a total of 104 days of onstream time (365 days less 157 days
of downtime, 48 days of heating and cooling, and 56 days of standby).

     The operating status changes in Scenario 2 were based on an extension
of the existing plant operation with an expanded operating staff and more
efficient administrative procedures.  It appears likely that the above
changes in plant operation can increase the average continuous plant operating
period to slightly over a month.  If this is assumed, the number of mainte-
nance downtimes would approximate eight per year.  If the number of downtimes
are reduced, most likely the duration of each will increase.  Therefore, it
is assumed each duration will average eight days, yielding a total downtime
of 64 days.  Heating and cooling periods remain at two days per downtime,
yielding a total of 16 days for heating and cooling.  Standby time on Sunday
could be eliminated by expanding the staff to the proper size.  The final
assumption made for this scenario is.that standby time for maintenance and
operational emergencies can be reduced to 21 days, 7 percent of the remaining
available time  (295 days).  As a result, the total available operating time
is 264 days (365 days less 64 days downtime, 16 days heating and cooling,
and 21 days standby).

     The assumptions made for Scenario 3 are based on the most optimistic
operating conditions likely to occur, given the projected equipment improve-
ments presently being initiated.  This scenario assumes an increase in labor
productivity and a market for all of the steam produced.  This scenario's
operating status provides for quarterly, one-week maintenance shutdowns,
accounting for 27 days of downtime.  The heating and cooling periods are
again two days each, accounting for an additional eight days of downtime.
It is assumed that annual emergency standby time can be reduced to 18 days
under optimal conditions.  These assumptions provide for a total available
operating time of 312 days (365 days less 27 days of downtime, eight days of
heating and cooling time, and 18 days of emergency standby).  This estimate
closely corresponds with Monsanto's original projections on the plant level
of operation but was determined on an independent basis.

     Other major differences in scenario parameters include variations in
feed rate, steam production, and staffing.  Except for the staffing esti-
mates, the scenario parameters are based on SYSTECH and City data findings.
The staffing estimates (for the second and third scenarios) are based on
SYSTECH engineering judgement.

     Since the kiln is directly fed from the shredder, the kiln feed rate
was determined from shredder throughput.  The average shredding rate
according to City records is 27 Mg/hr  (30 tph) and the maximum rate is
36 Mg/hr (40 tph).  The feed rate for  Scenario 1 was therefore established
at 27 Mg/hr (30 tph); the Scenario 3 feed rate was established at 36 Mg/hr
(40 tph) (optimal conditions).  The value for Scenario 2 was established at
32 Mg/hr (35 tph) or approximately the average of the other two scenarios.

     The steam production rate for each of the three scenarios was determined
by calculating the average hourly steam production (from the City data
sheets) over a two-day period and assuming the feed rate averaged 27 Mg/hr
(30 tph).  This yields a steam production rate of 50 Mg/hr (110,250 Ib/hr.)
for the first scenario.  Based on a straight line projection of 1.85 Mg
(steam)/Mg(refuse) the steam production rates for the second and third
scenario are 59.2 Mg/hr (130,540 Ib/hr) and 66 Mg/hr (145,500 Ib/hr),
respectively.

CLASSIFICATION OF COSTS PER EPA ACCOUNTING FORMAT

     The following sections discuss in general the methodology applicable to
each EPA cost classification.

Salaries

     In accordance with the EPA guidelines,  salaries were distinguished as
to general and administrative, operating, and maintenance.   Salary costs
were then projected for each scenario using the parameters  presented in
Table C-13.  Salary rates used in computing projected costs were obtained
from the City of Baltimore fiscal year 77-78 budget for the Landgard Plant
and through discussions with plant management.   Where salary ranges were
presented for positions, the midpoint of the range was used for cost determi-
nation.  The total salaries presented for each scenario are exclusive of
laborer/chauffeur personnel costs.  In accordance with the  EPA guidelines,
these specific personnel costs are included in total residue revenue costs.
Table C-14 illustrates salary costs for each of the three scenarios.

Employee Benefits

     Employee benefits costs were determined by reference to the City of
Baltimore Landgard budget for fiscal year 77-78.   A salary  benefit factor
was determined by relating projected benefit costs to projected salary
costs.  Employee benefits include the employer's share of FICA,  contributions
to the employee's retirement system,  share of medical and health insurance,
workman's compensation, and health and welfare fund.   The 16.74 percent
factor calculated was then applied to total scenario salary costs to arrive
at Table C-15.

Fuel

     In the processing of solid waste, fuel oil, gasoline, and diesel fuel
costs are incurred.  Number 2 fuel oil is consumed by the kiln and gas
purifier burners in the thermal processing of the solid waste.  Gasoline and
diesel fuel expenses are incurred through the transport of waste residue to
and from the landfill disposal site and for internal vehicle operations
(i.e., city cars, bobcats, forklift trucks, dozers, cranes, and front end
loaders).

     Annual costs for Number 2 fuel oil were computed by applying the unit
cost of fuel to the amount of fuel consumed under each plant operating mode
(i.e., standby, normal processing, heating and cooling, and downtime) and
the projected number of days per plant operating mode.   The Number 2 fuel
oil consumption data was provided by SYSTECH and based on their monitoring
of the different plant operating modes (Table C-12).   Unit costs for fuel
were based on information obtained from the City of Baltimore.

     For gasoline and diesel fuel, costs were computed in a similar manner
from field measurements.  The unit costs of gasoline and diesel fuel were
applied to the amount of fuel consumed under each operating mode and to the
projected number of days per plant operating mode.

     The computed fuel costs for each of the three scenarios are shown in
Table C-16.

-------
Electric Costs

     Plant electrical costs are incurred from general utility costs such as
heating, lighting, and air conditioning, and from the operation of plant
equipment items.  Plant equipment items which require electricity include
all motors for the pumps, conveyors, fans, and shredders.

     Electrical costs were computed based on their unit cost and the amount
consumed.  The amount consumed is a function of the operating status of the
plant.  For example, during downtime, all motors are off, resulting in
reduced electrical costs.  During standby, heatup, and cool down, many of the
subsystems are inoperative (e.g., ram feeders, shredders, etc.) and the
plant electrical consumption is likewise reduced.

     Projected electrical costs were based on Baltimore Gas and Electrical
Company (BG&E) recorded demand readings during the varying plant operating
modes.  The rates per kilowatt hour used in the cost projections were also
determined through contact with BG&E.

     Adjustments to the measured electrical demand data were made to account
for the inclusion of an electrostatic precipitator (ESP) and the exclusion
of the residue separation and gas scrubber systems.  Using electrical demand
data for the residue separation and gas scrubber systems as provided by
SYSTECH (100 kw) and estimated electrical demand for the ESP (500 kw) as
provided by a product manufacturer, the estimated electrical demand is shown
in Table C-17.

             TABLE C-17.  ESTIMATED ELECTRICAL DEMAND
                                             Measured            Adjusted
Normal processing                              1800                2200
Standby                                        1100                1500

     This  resulted in the following annual electrical costs for each of the
 three  scenarios:

           Scenario 1:              $293,248
           Scenario 2:              $463,024
           Scenario 3:              $523,131
                                       268

-------
Water and Sewer Costs

     Plant water and sewer costs are primarily attributed to:  (1) boiler
water consumption for the generation of steam and (2) water cooling, which
is necessary for the operation of the kiln, shredders, gas purifier, and
main fan.  The bulk of the water is used in the boilers for the production
of steam.

     Sewer and water costs were computed by applying the City water and sewer
rate structures to the amount of water consumed and sewage discharged under
each plant operating mode.  Quantities of water consumed and sewage discharged
were monitored by SYSTECH for the varying operating modes.  Rates used in the
cost computations were derived from the City of Baltimore rate structure.  As
of October 2, 1977, City agencies will be billed for water and sewer services.
Below are current estimated water and sewer charges for each of the three
scenarios.

          Scenario 1:              $20,000
          Scenario 2:              $35,100
          Scenario 3:              $43,100

Maintenance

     This category has been modified from the EPA standard format to include
both replacement and maintenance costs.   Rather than listing replacement costs
as a separate item as indicated by the EPA guidelines, it is assumed that any
replacements included here represent minor equipment costs charged to expense,
thereby making these costs synonymous with maintenance and repair.  Replace-
ment of any major equipment item which would be of any monetary consequence,
is assumed to be capitalized in an appropriate asset account.  For example,
the cost of replacement and repair work for the kiln was included in the
Supplemental Agreement.  All costs contained in the Supplemental Agreement
were categorized as capital costs and are identified in the Capital Expen-
ditures Extract.

     Due to continuing equipment modifications and the erratic operating status
of the plant, it was not practical to utilize the City's recording the
maintenance and repair costs.  From an accounting perspective, since the
plant has not been properly operating and plant modifications are persisting,
maintenance costs recorded during this period are not a good measure of costs.
As a result, our approach involved reference to the Internal Revenue Service
guidelines for maintenance and repairs for solid waste disposal plants as set
forth in Revenue Procedure 72-10.  This approach necessitates computing
maintenance costs by application of the recommended IRS guideline percentage
to the total depreciable capital asset base.  The rate for solid waste dis-
posal plants is 5.5 percent.

     Using the annual IRS guideline repair and maintenance allowance,  pro-
jected costs for each of the three scenarios are shown in Table C-18.
                                     269

Scenario 2                      $21,098,000                      $1,160,000
Scenario 3                      $21,297,000                      $1,171,000
     *The depreciable capital asset base for each of the three scenarios was
derived from deducting Land and Finance and Legal classification costs
from scenario aggregate capital costs.
     The annual repair and maintenance allowance includes the cost of labor.
Since EPA requests that the cost of maintenance personnel be listed separately,
the in-house labor costs have been deducted, resulting in the following
revised repair and maintenance allowance costs:

          Scenario 1:              $1,024,000
          Scenario 2:              $  972,000
          Scenario 3:              $1,025,000

Chemical Costs

     Even though not part of the EPA format cost classifications, the cost
of chemicals is a significant element in annual operating costs and,
accordingly, should be listed separately in the analysis.

     The major chemical expenses are attributed to chelate and sulfite,
which treat and control the water entering the boilers for the production of
steam.

     Chelate and sulfite costs were determined by application of their unit
costs to the amounts consumed per ton of waste processed.  Quantities con-
sumed were provided by SYSTECH, whereas unit costs were derived from vendor
price lists.  The following are estimated chemical costs for each of the
three scenarios:

          Scenario 1:              $ 3,000
          Scenario 2:              $ 8,000
          Scenario 3:              $11,000
                                     270

-------
Landfill Costs

     The cost of disposing of plant residue consists of the expenses of
hauling the residue to the landfill and the cost of disposal at the landfill
site.  Hauling expenses primarily include fuel costs and direct labor costs.
Costs incurred at the landfill site include labor and material expenses.

     The expenses incurred at the landfill site were computed based on the
landfill presently utilized for residue disposal, the Pennington Avenue
landfill.  With an estimated operating budget for the landfill of $167,000
for the fiscal year 76-77, the cost of residue was based on the portion of
residue attributed to the Pyrolysis Plant.

     As reported by the Department of Public Works, the Pennington Avenue
landfill, which recieves all residue from the plant, has a capacity of
1,644,000 m3 (2,150,000 yd3).  With an estimated useful life of three years,
the annual operating and maintenance cost approximates 31
-------
Since each trip to and from the landfill covers a distance of approximately
30 miles, .the fuel cost per trip was estimated at $2.10 (22.7 liters/48.4 km
x 9.4c/liter).

     To avoid duplication of costs, the fuel costs derived in this section
are deducted from the gasoline costs presented under "Fuel Cost", in the
summary operating and maintenance expense exhibits.

     In summary, the cost of residue disposal for each of the scenarios is
shown in Table C-19.

Other Overhead Costs

     The City of Baltimore allocates indirect costs to operating departments
annually, in accordance with EPA requirements.  Financial Management Circular
74-4, "Cost Principles Applicable to Grants and Contracts with State and
Local Governments," is adhered to in allocating the City's indirect costs and
overhead to the operating departments.  However, there is no allocation of
costs beyond the operating departments  (e.g., Department of Public Works).  To
compute indirect costs related to the Pyrolysis Plant overhead, administrative
costs were allocated  in the following manner:
      o
      o
      o
      o
Department of Public Works to Bureau of Operations
Bureau of Operation to Sanitation and Waste Removal
Sanitation and Waste Removal to Disposal
Disposal to Pyrolysis Plant
     All  allocations were made on a pro rated basis.  Each subdivision of a
 department  received an  overhead  expense based on its proportional share of
 total  department  budgeted expenditures.  For example, the Department of Public
 Works'  overhead expense was  $3,062,630.  The Bureau of Operations'  (a division
 of  Public Works)  budget was  64 percent of the total budget.  Therefore, the
                                      272

-------
 indirect  cost  allocable  to  the  Bureau of Operations was $1,960,083.   Further
 allocations  result  in $70,840 of  indirect and Department overhead  costs
 allocable to the  Pyrolysis  Plant  (Table C-20).

     Other costs  included under "Overhead Costs" are illustrated in
 Table C-21.  During the  analysis  and determination of costs associated  with
 the Landgard project,  costs were  found to exist that were not specifically
 mentioned in the  EPA operating  and maintenance cost guidelines.  These  costs
 are essentially of  a fixed  nature in that they specifically relate to
 general facility  operations, irrespective of the level of plant activity.
 The amounts  were  taken from the plant's 1976-1977 budget and should remain
 relatively constant regardless  of the scenario application.  As a result,
 total annual "Other Overhead" costs total $195,840 for each of the scenarios.

     Table C-22 summarizes  operating and maintenance expenses per EPA
 classification for  each  of  the  three scenarios.   Table C-23 summarizes
 operating and  maintenance expenses per Mg of refuse processed.

 NONAPPLICABLE  OPERATING  AND MAINTENANCE COSTS

     Certain costs  normally associated with commercial enterprise are not
 always incurred in  a municipally  run plant facility.   Whereas a private con-
 cern would be  required to pay assorted taxes and license fees,  the Baltimore
 Landgard  facility is exempt from  such charges.   Furthermore,  under normal
 circumstances, private businesses incur financial expenses  associated with
 management fees, legal fees, and  other professional services.   Where the
 City provides  these types of services to the plant, such services are not
 chargeable directly to the Landgard budget but rather are passed on through
 the Department of Public Works  to the plant, on a proportional  basis,  as
 general overhead expense (Table C-20).   Insurance costs are handled similarly.
 As a result, no costs are found under the EPA Classifications'  Taxes and
 Licenses,  Insurance, Management Fees, and Professional Services.

 CLASSIFICATION OF COSTS TO COST CENTERS

     Computed Scenario 1 operation and. maintenance costs were allocated to
 the seven  EPA established cost  centers  (Table C-24).   The basis used in the
 allocation process  for each of  the expenses is  described as follows:

 Salaries and Employee Benefits

     Due to the unavailability of manpower allocation data,  salaries,  and
 employee benefit costs were apportioned,  based  on the plant superintendent's
 estimates.  A few personnel costs were  directly  assigned to cost centers.
All other  personnel  costs were evenly distributed to  each of  the cost
 centers.

                      t  The remaining general plant  costs were allocated on a pro rata basis.

-------
Fuel Costs

     Number 2 fuel oil expenses are allocated to thermal processing.  All
other expenses are allocated to the general plant.

Electrical Costs

     Electrical consumption data were recorded by SYSTECH for each of the
major pieces of equipment or breaker box which were in turn assigned to a
cost center or module.

Water and Sewer Costs

     Water and sewer costs were apportioned to energy recovery and to the
general plant.  Water and sewer costs incurred during normal processing,
heating and cooling, and standby, less the general plant fixed costs, were
allocated to energy recovery.

Maintenance

     All maintenance costs were allocated on a proportional basis according
to the capital assets associated with each cost center, consistent with the
overall maintenance cost determination.

Chemicals

     All chemical costs were allocated to energy recovery.

Residue Disposal

     Residue disposal costs were included in thermal processing.

Other Overhead Costs

     Other overhead costs were allocated to the general plant.

     The general plant cost center was then allocated to the remaining cost
centers on a proportional basis according to cost center capital cost
amounts.  This then yields a cost of $641,000 for the waste preparation
system and $2,172,000 for the energy recovery system.

FIXED AND VARIABLE COSTS

     Some costs incurred bear a direct relationship to operational levels as
well as general and administrative concentration, making it necessary to
differentiate between the nature of costs.  By defining costs as either
fixed or variable, it is possible to project what costs will be at different
levels of plant activity.  Fixed costs are conventionally defined as costs
that do not vary over a relevant range of production.  That is, if the plant
facility were not in operation, there are certain costs that would continue
                                     279

-------
to occur..  Examples of fixed costs are costs associated with maintaining an
office or headquarters, insurance on the plant facility, interest on debt
service (if any), plant security, etc.  Variable costs encompass those
elements of. cost that change or fluctuate proportionally with different
levels of processing.  Examples of variables costs are fuel, chemicals,
water, electricity, maintenance, etc.  Note, however, that certain portions
of variable costs do have elements of fixed costs as well (some water, fuel,
and electricity will be required to service an office or headquarters when
the plant is operating or shut down).

     Since the analysis of historical operating and maintenance expenses
relating to Landgard was limited by discontinuous operations, a classifi-
cation of historical costs into fixed and variable categories was not
possible.  However, a cost breakdown was made to analyze the nature of all
operating and maintenance costs, based on projected scenario costs.
Table C-25 illustrates the results.  This analysis at a minimum, provides
some insight into plant costs when the facility is processing waste in
comparison to being down.

NNORMALIZATION OF COSTS

     Operating and maintenance costs were normalized in accordance with EPA
guidelines using Scenario 1 parameters only.  Section 7 illustrates EPA's
Accounting Format normalization guidelines.

     Normalized operating and maintenance costs are displayed in Table C-26.

                                  REVENUES
METHOD OF ACCOUNTING FOR REVENUES

     As discussed in "Description of City Accounting System", the City of
Baltimore maintains separate accounts for the recording of revenues from
sales of ferrous metals, nonferrous metals, and steam produced by the
Pyrolysis Plant.  However, because steam is the only product being sold, a
complete economic analysis of revenues could not be performed.  Accordingly,
the scenario approach is followed for projected steam revenues only.

COMPILATION AND ALLOCATION OF REVENUE

     The City of Baltimore entered into a contract with the Baltimore Gas &
Electric Company for the sale of steam generated by the plant.  The contract
provides the City with a market for the steam thereby avoiding any signi-
ficant supply and demand problems.  The contract provided for a variable
price for the steam based upon the fluctuating price of Number 6 crude oil.
Using the contract formula, the latest available price for steam approximates
$6.88 per 1,000 kg ($3.13 per 1,000 Ibs.) of steam.  When this is applied to
the individual scenario parameters, the following revenues are derived:

            Scenario                        Steam Revenues

               1                             $  978,432
               2                             $2,176,612
               3                             $3,435,494

     Scenario 3 assumes a market is found for all of the steam produced,
accounting for a major increase in revenues received.

NORMALIZATION OF STEAM REVENUES

     Steam revenues were then normalized according to EPA guidelines.   The
guidelines call for using a price of $3.31 per 1,000 kg ($1.50 per 1,000 Ib)
of steam.   This results in the following revenues for each of the scenarios:

            Scenario                         Steam Revenues

               1                              $  470,400

                             NET OPERATING COSTS
     The net operating costs for each of the three scenarios were computed
by deriving total costs and revenues.  The scenarios'  actual and normal-
ized costs were transferred from the pertinent exhibits yielding total
costs.  Revenues per metric ton were derived by dividing the revenues under
each scenario by annual throughputs.  The net operating costs are presented
in Table C-27 and the normalized net operating cost are presented in
Table C-28.

                   RESOURCE RECOVERY PLANT IMPLEMENTATION
             GUIDES FOR MUNICIPAL OFFICIALS (ACCOUNTING FORMAT)*


     The economics of various types of resource recovery systems are difficult
to compare.  System technologies vary, capital and operating costs vary,
revenues from the recovered products vary, the recovered products themselves
vary, and the cost accounting methods used to analyze system economics vary.
This paper proposed a method of reporting costs and revenues to aid in com-
paring the costs of various resource recovery systems.  The proposed method
includes a standardized accounting format and normalized accounting format.

     The standardized accounting format facilitates comparison and analysis
of resource recovery plant costs and revenues by assuring that all cost and
revenue elements are included (or at least that the exclusion of certain
items is identified).  Whether based on historical or projected data, the
standardized accounting format is designed to reflect the costs and revenues
of a system, incorporating all site-specific parameters.

     The normalized accounting format reflects all costs and revenues for a
system, but it is not site specific.  General assumptions for certain costs
and revenues are used.  Normalized accounting information is used to compare
systems when site specific information is unavailable or when one wants to
compare costs of different systems.   The normalized accounting format pre-
serves and highlights the differences resulting from engineering design while
eliminating differences resulting from site-specific factors.

     The accounting format is presented on the following seven tables.  Each
item on the tables is explained in the notes following the tables; the
numbers in parentheses on the tables match the numbered notes.  Those costs
that cannot be segregated (e.g., design, construction, real equipment)
should be combined and labelled accordingly.  (See Tables C-29 through C-35.)

     The Office of Solid Waste (OSW) has developed these recommended cost
accounting formats as a means of assisting planners, designers, and decision
making officials in their resource recovery decisions.  Other costs
accounting formats available from OSW include collection, incineration,

forward the data developed along with a designation of their system to OSW so
that we will be able to compile data from most of the systems for use by

     charges are 10 percent of  total and add to equipment costs.

(48)  Assume 2  percent of capitalized costs.

(49)  Total initial capital investment, normalized.

(58)  Assume $.50 per kgal.

(59)  Include all costs,  both contractor and  in-house, but do not include
     in-house  labor.   Labor is  already accounted for in Item (54).

(60)  Include costs as in (26).  Assume final disposal cost of $4.00 per ton
     of  residue.   Assume haul distance is 5  miles.

-------
(65)  Total annual 0 and M cost,  normalized.

(66)  Item (65)  divided by Item (16).

(67)  Because of the wide differences in resource recovery technologies, the
     output products from different systems  may not at first seem comparable.
     However, after applying the following assumptions a rough comparison is
     possible.   List the output material in  the form that the system design
     will produce; i.e., #2 ferrous,  mixed color glass, 90 percent pure
     aluminum,  mixed metals - 40 percent nonferrous, etc.  State the assumed
     solid waste composition that is used for this determination and be
     realistic when determining how much of  aluminum, mixed metal -
     40 percent nonferrous, etc.  Then assume the material is worth
     75 percent of the Chicago market as of  1 April 1975 for similar material.
     This is the revenue earned.  If there is no Chicago market for the
     material a judgment as to what the material is worth will have to be
     made.  The rationale for this judgment  can be included along with
     Table VI.   The determination of product worth should consider the
     market price for similar products, possible letters of intent, actual
     sale price (if product was ever sold) and the like.  Do not include
     shipping.

(68)  Assume transportation costs of $6 per ton for glass; $12 per ton for
     ferrous; $20 per ton for aluminum and other materials at 25 percent of
     expected revenues.

(69)  Sum of material revenues.

(70)  Energy products are also difficult to compare.  Assume the following
     prices for energy products.

          Steam:                                       $1.50/1,000 pounds
          Shredded Fuel:                               $.45 per million Btu
          Pulped Fuel:                                 $.50 per million Btu
          Pyrolysis Gas (with useable sensible heat):  $1.00 per million Btu
          Pyrolysis Gas (no sensible heat):             $1.10 per million Btu
          Methane:                                     $2.00 per million Btu
          Pyrolysis Oil:                               $1.85 per million Btu
          Other Chemical:                              Average market price as
                                                         of 1 April 1975
          Electricity:                                 $.03/kwh

(71)  Assume shredded fuel transportation costs at $.11 per million Btu; zero
     cost for steam, electricity, and gas (pipes and cables should be
     included in construction costs); oil at $.03 per gallon.

(72)  Sum of energy revenues.

                                 SECTION C-8

       DEPARTURES FROM GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (GAAP)
     The general format and certain assumptions or concepts applicable to the
EPA Accounting Format,  (Section C-7),  represent departures from Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).  As a result, the summary amounts
representing such items as annual capital costs, and annual operating costs,
either in total or on a per Mg (ton) basis, should not be construed as being
amounts determined in conformity with GAAP.  Some of the subjects in question
are as follows:

     o    Financing and Legal Costs
     o    Land and Depreciation
     o    Use of Accrual Accounting Procedures

FINANCING AND LEGAL COSTS

     The EPA guidelines provide for the inclusion of financing and legal
costs as part of the overall total capital costs.  According to the EPA
format, these costs are then to be allocated over the estimated useful life
of the facility.  This has the effect of deferring the impact of the
financing and legal costs to accounting periods other than the ones in which
they were incurred.

     One of the basic principles of accounting involves the matching concept.
Simply stated, all items of revenue should be recorded in the accounting
period in which they are earned and all items of expense recognized in the
period in which they are incurred.  Government regulatory agencies permit the
inclusion of interest costs during a construction period as a cost of the
asset.  However, interest is a cost of borrowing funds and not a cost of the
asset being constructed.

     The effect of including interest as a capital cost results in an over-
statement of true capital costs and an understatement of the annual operating
expenses.

LAND AND DEPRECIATION

     Capital assets, constructed or otherwise acquired, are normally intended
to benefit more than one operating year.  Such is the case with respect to
the capital assets of the Baltimore- Plant.  As a result, a portion of the
cost of these capital assets should be offset in each operating year against

                                      301

-------
whatever measurable revenues are obtained.  This would fulfill the matching
principle disc issed above.  Depreciation achieves this end by allocating the
original cost of an item over its estimated useful life.

     Included in total capital costs, along with construction costs and
equipment, is the cost of the land in which the plant is situated and
a portion of the land cost of the landfill site.  However, land is a tangible
asset that is not subject to depreciation.

     The EPA format doesn't provide for including depreciation as an annual
operating expense.  This obviously has the effect of understating the
operating cost category.

USE OF ACCRUAL ACCOUNTING PROCEDURES

     During the initial review stages an attempt was made to determine the
actual operating costs of the Baltimore Plant.  A review of the City
accounting system, from which the actual costs were being derived, led to a
conclusion that an accrual accounting method was not being employed, neither
on a full nor modified basis.  (See description of accounting methods under
"Description of City Accounting System").

     Employment of any basis of accounting other than the full accrual basis
is not in conformity with GAAP.  Unles.s expenses and revenues are matched in
the periods in which they are experienced, the results are not accurate.
This condition was one of the factors which subsequently led to the abandon-
ment of the extraction of incurred operating costs and ultimately use of the
scenario approach to project operating and maintenance costs.

RECOMMENDED CHANGES TO EPA's ACCOUNTING FORMAT

Introduction

     EPA's Accounting Format depicts the manner in which costs related to the
construction and operation of resource recovery facilities should be
presented.  In accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles the
Accounting Format has been analyzed and suggestions for improving the presen-
tation of costs have been offered.

     There are two basic ways of organizing costs for presentation or analysis
purposes.  One method is to present costs in a cost element format (e.g.,
labor, materials, land, fuel, etc.).  EPA's format is somewhat in line with
this approach.  The second method is to group costs by functional area such
as maintenance, operation, general overhead, etc.  Under this latter format
certain cost elements, such as salaries and employee benefits, appear under
each major functional area.

     Both methods provide pertinent cost information and no one method has
universal application.  It cannot be said that one method is preferred over
the other.  Rather, circumstances and managements needs dictate the use of
one method.  However, whichever method is chosen, the governing principle
must be that of consistency and meaningful presentation.

                                     302

-------
     The Accounting Format side steps these basic principles of accounting
when it comes to the treatment of costs.  The format's offering of select
cost elements is incomplete and inconsistent, especially with the inclusion
of functional categories.  For example, under "Operation and Maintenance"
salary and general overhead cost categories are presented, whereas a material
categorization is omitted.  In addition, a functional classification such as
maintenance is presented, although by definition it includes salary and mat-
erial related costs.

     There are other more obvious inconsistencies with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP).   Examples of these departures include the
treatment afforded contingencies, start-up and working capital costs,
financing and legal costs, interest expense, and the absence of depreciation
being treated as an annual operating expense.

     Contingencies are not capital costs.  A cost, capital or operating is
not a cost until it actually materializes.  This by definition excludes
contingencies from this category.

     Working capital is a liquid asset requirement to provide a cushion
against anticipated operating expenses.  It is usually considered necessary
until revenues have begun to flow to offset the cash outflow.  Therefore,
again by definition, this cannot be considered a capital cost.

     Financing and legal costs are operating costs and should not be included
under the capital cost category.

     Interest expense is also  included as a capital cost category.  Interest
expense too is an annual operating expsse and a capital cost requirement.

     We question the propriety of attempting to ascertain one figure which
purportedly represents total costs, a figure which includes capital costs
plus operating costs.  It must be recognized that these two major cost
segments, capital and operating and maintenance, are mutually exclusive and
should be treated as such for  analysis purposes.  Total capital costs can be
computed, but these costs should be divorced from operating costs.  The total
capital investment is normally (in accordance with GAAP) depreciated over
some useful life, with some annual portion being included as a normal operating
cost.  To be meaningful for comparison among facilities, a uniform deprecia-
tion policy would also be established for such plant facilities.

     The discussion that follows offers suggestions to the format which will
facilitate more meaningful economic comparisons of resource recovery systems
(in accordance with GAAP).

Capital Costs

     The purpose of the capital cost format is to capture and identify all
property or asset costs relating to the facility until it has been placed in
position and is properly operating.  Based on this premise and on our exper-
ience from the1 Landgard economic evaluation, the following changes to the
format are recommended (Table  C-36).

                                      303

     As illustrated in Table C-36, the categories of land, site preparation,
design, construction, real equipment, and other equipment are included in the
format.  The only changes to those categories involve their definitions.  The
definition for each is as follows:

     o    Land:  Includes land acquisition costs for the facility site
          and disposal site.

     o    Site Preparation:  Includes the cost of improvements to the
          raw land including, but not limited to roads, sidewalks,
          curbs, and landscaping; in addition to the costs of relocating
          present tenants and disposal site preparation.

     o    Design:  Includes but is not limited to consultant and/or con-
          tractor costs for preliminary design, feasibility studies,
          final designs, design drawings, inspection during construction,
          preparation of operating manuals, operator training, and
          assistance during start-up.

     o    Construction:  Includes the cost of construction, material,
          and labor for the facility, exclusive of equipment purchase
          and transport costs.

     o    Real Equipment:  Includes the purchase, transportation, and
          installation price of plant equipment.

     o    Other Equipment:  Includes cost of all ancillary equipment
          like bulldozers, loaders, office equipment,  trucks that are
          necessary for plant operation,  and operating spares.

     In constrast to EPA1 s format we have excludes funds set aside for the
replacement of depreciated equipment (under EPA's format replacement cqsts
are included in Real Equipment and Other Equipment).   First it is unusual for
any organization to literally set aside funds on an annual basis for asset
replacement.  Secondly, these funds cannot be properly labeled capital costs
until new assets were actually purchased.  As a result, any such fund set
aside for asset replacement should not be included as  a capital cost.

     We have included one additional category, labeled "Additional Capital
Costs due to Design Modifications."  This category is  included in acknow-
ledgement of probable design modifications resulting from the experimental
status of resource recovery systems.   This category can be further broken
down by land, design, real equipment, etc. components.

     All other capital cost categories contained in the original format are
deleted.  As previously described these are not capital costs, and their
inclusion would overstate capital costs.

     It is also recommended that there should be an omission of capital cost
per ton.  Through the inclusion of an annual depreciation and interest
expense in operating and maintenance, the capital cost will be recognized.


                                     305

-------
Operation and Maintenance

     The major problem with EPA's format categorization of operating and
maintenance expenses is that cost elements and functional areas are co-
mingled.

     The format includes maintenance and residue removal functional classifi-
cations.  However, these classifications inherently include cost elements
such as salaries, fuel, and materials.  For analysis purposes, this incon-
sistent treatment of cost categorizations results in understating either
functional costs or cost elements.

     Based on the above inconsistencies, a format has been prepared which
first allocates costs to functional areas and then further allocates costs
to cost elements (Table C-37).  This approach incorporates the pertinent cost
categories but ameliorates functional cost element inconsistencies.

     The revised format omits a category for replacement equipment.  A replace-
ment equipment category is unnecessary because any substantial replacement
related cost should be treated as a capital asset.  We have included a
category for expendable assets which cover the cost of minor replacement
equipment.  These equipment costs are insignificant (less than a specified
dollar amount) and expensed in full when incurred.

     The other changes to the format involve the inclusion of interest, fi-
nance and legal, and depreciation costs, which were previously treated as
capital costs.

Other Comments

     EPA's revenue format as currently presented, is more than sufficient for
economic analysis purposes.

     The normalization guidelines in principle also provide for meaningful
economic evaluations.  The only changes which are recommended involve cost
category alterations in accordance with the revised capital and operating and
maintenance formats.

                                SECTION C-10

                           LANDFILL CAPITAL COSTS
     Landfill capital costs were derived and allocated based on Pennington
Avenue Landfill cost information.  (Currently, all residue at the Pyrolysis
Plant is disposed of at the Pennington Avenue Landfill).

     First, the cost and capacity of the Pennington Avenue Landfill has been
determined, yielding a cost per cubic yard.  The landfill cost was identified
from the Capital Extract and was listed at $1,782,533.  The capacity, as
reported by the Department of Public Works was 1,641,221 cubic meters
(2,146,636 cubic yard).  Therefore, the cost is approximately $1.09 per cubic
meter ($0.93 per cubic yard).

     The next step involved determining the volume necessary for the plant's
residue.

     Using the annual throughput for each scenario shown in Table C-12 and
the estimated useful life of the facility (14.5 years), the total refuse
processed over the life of the facility would be:

          Scenario 1:                971,500 Mg
          Scenario 2:              2,943,500 Mg
          Scenario 3:              3,915,000 Mg

     The residue from the plant, which is to be disposed at the landfill,
consists of kiln residue, gas purifier slag, and fly ash.  As discussed
previously, the kiln residue averaged 44 percent of the incoming refuse,
while the slag and fly ash averaged 1.7 and 0.1 percent of the incoming
refuse, respectively.  Therefore, approximately 46 percent of the incoming
refuse requires landfill disposal.  Most of plant residue is comprised of
kiln residue and slag which has a bulk density of 1.6 Mg per cubic meter.
The total volume of residue over the life of the facility requiring landfill
disposal for each scenario is as follows:

          Scenario 1:                270,300 cubic meters
          Scenario 2:                846,250 cubic meters
          Scenario 3:              1,125,550 cubic meters

At $1.09 per cubic meter, this yields:

          Scenario 1:              $  304,440
          Scenario 2:              $  922,410
          Scenario 3:              $1,226,850

                                      316

-------
     These landfill costs were allocated to the EPA classifications on a pro
rata basis from the Capital Extract listing.  When the $1,782,533 landfill
cost was researched, the costs were broken down as follows:

          Extra Work
          Design
          Land
          Inspection
          Construction
          Utility Work
          Equipment
            Total                  $1,782,533

     The costs associated with the Pyrolysis Plant were allocated on a pro
rata basis as shown in Table C-39.
