APPENDIX I
ASPECT OF WASTE COMBUSTION OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF THIS STUDY
The following factors will have the most significant impact on a
utility's decision on whether to burn waste as a supplementary fuel.
While the data presented in this report are intended to assist in selecting
potentially promising situations, a detailed evaluation of these factors
is outside the scope of this study:
1. Capital Investments
Cost of modifying the boiler itself
Cost of ancillary equipment for receiving refuse, handling, shredding,
metal removal, etc.
Cost of additional air pollution control equipment
2. Operating Costs
Cost of waste gathering and transportation
Cost of shredding and other waste processing operations
Cost of transfer of fuel to firing point
Cost of disposal of noncombustible material
Cost of incremental ash disposal
3. Feasibility of Boiler Modification
Apart from the cost itself, there may be physical problems associated
with the modification of any particular boiler (age of equipment, for
example).
4. Technical Reliability
All utilities are concerned with keeping their power generating equip-
ment in operating condition. Corrosion of boiler tubes, for example, can
315
-------
be caused by burning any fuel and can require that equipment be taken out
of service so that repairs can be made. All utilities are concerned about
corrosion. Some utilities are apprehensive to the extent that they do not
want to expose their boiler to the possible additional risk attributed to
burning solid waste. Other utilities are not apprehensive about the cor-
rosion potential of burning solid waste.
5. Load Factor of Boiler
Modifying a peakload unit would mean that fuel storage and firing
equipment would have to be large, capable of disposing of the daily solid
waste load in a short time. This would involve a higher capital cost for
fuel storage and firing than the modification of a baseload boiler, in which
the solid waste could be burned over a longer period of time.
6. Introduction of Nuclear Plants
The introduction of nuclear generating capacity in a system will cause
the fossil fuel plants to be cut back somewhat; i.e., their load factor will
fall. This then has the same effect as described in item 5 above.
7. Fuel Ridffij and Electricity Rate Structure
The utility company may have to pass any fuel savings through to the
customer if solid waste were to be a significantly cheaper fuel. There
would therefore be no direct economic incentive to pursue the concept of
using waste as supplementary fuel.
8. Marketability of Fly Ash After Introduction of Solid Waste Fuel
9. Ash Disposal Site
While benefits will be gained from the reduction in landfill disposal
requirements for the raw garbage, there must be available means to dispose
of the ash generated from the waste-derived fuel.
316
-------
10. Public Relations
Because a utility is concerned with public approval of rate increases
and new plant sites and is aware of its public service role, it may consider
solid waste as a fuel in order to achieve a favorable image with the public
as a good corporate citizen.
12. Air Pollution
Air emission tests have been conducted at only one location: the Union
Electric Company's Meramec Plant, where solid waste is burned with coal as
part of EPA's energy recovery demonstration grant to the City of St. Louis.
Based on those tests, conducted in late 1973, it appears that:
1. Particulate emissions increase slightly when solid waste
is fired with coal, probably because of decreases in the
efficiency of the electrostatic precipitation (ESP). There
was no discernable change in particulate particle size or
resistivity. Decrease in ESP performance may result from
increases in gas velocity and changes in ESP electrical
conditions (spark rate).
2. Gaseous emissions (sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen
chloride, and mercury vapor) are not significantly affected
by combined firing of waste and coal.
3. Uncontrolled particulate emissions per cubic foot of exhaust
gas are not changed by combined firing; however, total uncon-
trolled particulate emission do increase because of increases
in the gas flowrate.
4. Additional air pollution testing is required to complete the
characterization of particulate emissions resulting from combined
firing.
317
-------
Additional tests were conducted late in 1974. The tdst results will
be available in the Spring, 1975. If preliminary indications of inct'ellBi
particulate emissions are confirmed, an increase in the capacity of the
pollution control devices will be required.

APPENDIX II
DETAILS OF HOW THE WORK WAS DONE
The work performed for this study may be divided into a number of
discrete parts:
A. Plant Locations and Capacities
Information for plants existing in 1971 was obtained from National
1 2
Coal Association and Federal Power Commission (FPC) publications. '
3 4
For projected plants, two surveys were consulted. '
For data on individual boilers, FPC form 67 or the annual summaries
derived from the form were used. The 1969 survey as reported in the
original form 67's, filed by the utility companies with the FPC in
Washington, D.C., was used most frequently.
In some cases, the individual boiler capacities from form 67 did not
add to give the total plant capacity as quoted in the other references.
Where the discrepancy represented less than 5 percent of the plant capacity,
the boiler figures were prorated to the total plant figure; these changes
are noted in the detailed data tables.
B. Energy Requirements
Load factors, net electricity generation (KWH), and plant heat rates
2
(Btu per KWH) for 1971 were obtained from FPC data. Data is given on a
plant basis and no breakdown was obtained for individual boilers. In some
cases, plant heat rates were not reported; statewide averages were used in
such cases. In some plants, new units were started up in 1971, giving rise
to unrealistically low load factors for that year. Again, statewide average
factors were used to compute a more representative plant energy requirement
319
-------
with which to relate refuse combustion energy. Use of State averages is
noted in the detailed data tables.
For the 1975 calculations of energy requirements, the 1971 average load
factors and heat rates were used for each State in the absence of other infor-
mation.
C. Fuel Distribution
The distribution of fuels within plants for 1971, by Btu supplied, was
obtained on a percentage basis from National Coal Association data. The
same source was used to establish the plant design fuels.
D. Equipment Details
Boiler-by-boiler data on type of firing, bottom and fly ash handling
equipment and operability was obtained from the relevant FPC form 67.
Figures for the efficiency of air pollution control equipment refer to
performance when burning coal during average operating conditions unless
marked (t), for test conditions, or (d), for design calculations. "NR"
indicates data .was not reported in FPC 67 nor supplied by the utilities
themselves.
A key to abbreviations is given in the section "Presentation of Results"
and a number of terms are defined in the glossary, Appendix III.
E. Data Confirmation by Utility Companies
Sections A, B, C, and D above explain how most of the boiler data was
gathered. When data had been assembled in a consistent format, all the
utility companies were contacted for verification. According to the Edison
Electric Institute who assisted in the confirmation, no changes have been
requested by the companies to date. Any changes subsequently notified will
be published as an addendum.
320
-------
F. Waste Generation Areas
For the States under study, all the power plants were narked on maps
showing SMSA's and counties. Each State was then split into "waste genera-
tion areas" according to the distribution of plants, with the emphasis on
matching plants to the most populated areas, as represented by SMSA's. In
some cases, counties adjacent to SMSA's were included in the "areas"; in
other cases, plants outside SMSA's were matched to the county in which they
were situated.
The boundaries of the "waste generation areas," within which solid
waste is assumed most likely to be transported to the power plants, were thus
drawn without formal investigation to define possible transportation methods
and routes to those plants, nor was consideration given in this study to the
optimum economic distance from the plants.
The maps presented with the study results indicate plant locations and
the "waste generation areas" for which population data was developed.
G. Population Estimates
The basic data for most of the population figures was obtained from a
report by EPA and HUD, Population and Economic Activity in the U.S. and
Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas.6 were those for 1970 (actual)
and as predicted for 1975 based on a fertility rate C. It was decided
to amend the predictions to the lower rate E (12 percent lower than C in
the year 2000) by multiplying the prediction figures for 1975 by 0.997, a
number obtained by interpolating data in the above report comparing growth
rates based on C and E.
Having assembled population figures for each SMSA for 1970 and 1975, the
figures for 1971 were obtained by linear interpolation between 1970 and 1975.
321
-------
Since a number of the waste generation calculations require inclusion
of counties outside the SMSA's, county population figures from the 1970
Census were obtained.'' Estimates for 1971 and 1975 were made by using the
growth rates for adjacent SMSA's which were deduced from the figures already
calculated.
H. Waste Generation and Energy Content
The following figures were used to calculate the quantity of raw refuse
generated in eadh year and the corresponding potential energy obtainable by
combustion:^
Waste Generation (Ib/person/day) 1971 1975
SMSA's/urbanized areas 3.60 3.91
Counties (assumed same as national average) 3.25 3.53 '
Solid waste heating value, Btu/lb 4,500 4,500
I. Typical Transportation Distances
For each "waste generation area," the center of population was estimated
on the maps. This point was deemed the center of waste generation. Distances
from there to each plant in the area were determined and are recorded as
typical transportation distances in the plant data tabulations. Where more
than one plant Was located in an area, a weighted average of the distances
was used as the typical transportation distance for the area, and these dis-
tances were recorded In the State summary tables. The averages were weighted
according to the plant energy requirements, on the assumption that solid waste
would be distributed to the plants according to their fuel demand. In practice
this may not take place since all waste may be sent to one particular plant
for processing. The distances reported in this study are therefore intended
only as a general guide.
322
-------
For many plants, distances from major urban centers outside the immediate
area are also quoted for informational purposes since it may prove desirable
to arrange rail or barge transportation from the most populated areas to
l
certain distant plants which are particularly suitable for utilizing solid
waste combustion.
J. Boiler Capacity for Solid Waste Combustion
It is probable that at least 10 percent of the fuel used by any boiler
could in principal be replaced by solid waste, provided the necessary ash-
handling equipment were available and operable. A column is included in the
data tables which presents the energy requirement of each boiler in terms of
the equivalent tonnage of waste, assuming (1) 10 percent replacement of fuel
by solid waste and (2) the average plant heat rate and load factor apply to
each boiler in the plant.
These figures were calculated using the nomograph described earlier in
this report. It was decided to perform the calculations for all boilers,
with or without the necessary ash-handling equipment, to Indicate the
potential waste-burning capacity of those boilers that might be converted
to handle refuse if economic conditions were favorable. The quantities
calculated were rounded to the nearest 5 tons per day.
323
-------
APPENDIX III
DEVELOPMENT OF THE NOMOGRAPH
The nomograph Is based on the following steps:
A. Define MW as unit (plant or boiler) capacity, in megawatts
PC as the unit load factor, in percent
H as the unit heat rate, in Btu/KWH
B. The unit daily energy requirement is (1,000 • MW • PC • H ' 24) Btu/day
100
C. Assume the refuse-burning capability of the unit is 10 percent of
the total fuel being fired. The energy to be supplied by refuse
is thus (34 • MW • PC • H) Btu/day.
D. Assuming a heating value for refuse of 4,500 Btu/lb, the energy
is equivalent to
24 • MW • PC » H
4,500 • 2^000tons of refuse per day
E. The above quantity is essentially a "year-round" daily figure, provided
the average load factor for a long period of time is used. The equiva-
lent quantity of refuse (R) to be transported to a plant or boiler on a
"5 working days per week" basis is therefore found:
R - 24 • MW • PC • H • 1 _,,,„, 10-6x MW • PC . 'H
4,500 - 2,000 5 (3'733 * 10 > MW ' pc ' H

APPENDIX IV
GLOSSARY
Air Classifier — a device which uses a jet of air to separate light particles,
such as shredded paper and plastics, from heavy particles, such as pieces
of metal and glass. Shredded waste is dropped vertically down into a
chute, as a jet of air is blown up from the bottom of the chute. Heavy
materials drop down while the air catches the light materials and carries
them out of the top of the chute.
Baffle — a simple air pollution control device which is used to change direc-
tion of a dust-laden gas, causing the coarser particles to impinge on a
wall and drop out of suspension. Primarily used to reduce dust loading
ahead of more efficient dust collection devices.
Baghouse (fabric collector) — a simple air pollution control device utilizing ,
the principle of filtration. Dust-laden gas is passed through fabric
bags or envelopes which remove a large percentage of the dust.
Baseload boiler — a boiler that operates all the time (except for downtime
for maintenance), including evenings and winter months. Baseload
boilers are generally the most efficient boilers and are less costly
to operate than peakload boilers. (See Peakload boilers)
Boiler — equipment in which fuel is burned and the heat released by combustion
is used to raise steam. The steam is subsequently used to power turbines
driving electrical generators. A power plant may have one or several
boilers: each boiler may be used to raise steam for specific generating
equipment or several boilers may be tied into a common steam header.
Bottom ash — ash that drops to the bottom of a boiler and consists of heavy
noncombustible particles.
"Wet systems" operate where the firebox temperature is high enough to
cause particles to fuse together into a liquid slag which is tapped
from the bottom of the boiler and, after water quenching and cooling,
is subsequently removed from the plant as lumps of clinker. This system
is most frequently associated with cyclone-fired boilers.
"Dry systems" operate by dropping tfie hot ash particles directly into
bins for water quenching and removal. The particles do not reach high
enough temperatures in the boiler to fuse together.
325
-------
Btu (British Thermal Unit) — a standard unit of energy, equivalent to the
heat required to raise one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit at
sea level. For example, the heat released by the combustion of coal
is its heating (or calorific) value and is expressed in Btu per pound
of coal.
Cyclone — an air'pollution control device, consisting of a structure without
moving parts"in which the velocity of an inlet gas stream is transformed
into a confined vortex from which centrifugal forces tend to drive the
suspended particles to the wall of the cyclone body. The particles drop
out- of the bottom of the cyclone and the gas leaves the'top.
Cyclone-fired boiler — a boiler in which combustion takes place in an adjoining
cylinder; only heated gases enter the boiler firebox itself. The com-
bustion of fuel is accomplished by inducing a swirling motion to the
fuel and air, hence the name "cyclone."
Electrostatic precipitator — an air pollution control device which removes
particles, sblid or liquid, from gaseous streams by the use of an
electric potential between electrodes. Under the influence of the
electric field, the particles in a gas become charged and move towards
the electrodes, where they are deposited.
Federal .Power Commission — a government agency with the authority to regulate'
wholesale electric rates in interstate commerce, to regulate certain
aspects of finance and accounting with respect to utility companies,
and to encourage interconnection and coordination of electricity supplies.
FPC 67 — a form ^Issued annually by the Federal Power Commission to all utility
companies operating plants with capacities exceeding 25 MW and systems*
exceeding 100 MW. When completed by the utility company, the form gives'
a comprehensive listing of equipment characteristics, air pollution
control capabilities, cooling facilities, water sources'and disposition;
etc. The 19*69 copy of FPC 67 contains all this information filled in
by the utility company but in subsequent years, only changes to the
parameters are noted. The "full" form is to be completed every 5
years.
Fluidlzed bed a bed of solid particles in which the particles are suspended1
in an upflowing stream of gas (or liquid). The particles are kept in a
constant state of motion.
F]5r .ash — ash from the fuel which leaves the boiler in the form of fine
particles which are suspended in the exit combustion gases (compare
witli "bottom ash"). Fly ash is recovered by devices suth as electro-
static precipitators.
Ftont-fired boiler — in which fuel enters from a row of firing ports along l
the1 f^ont of the boiler. Such boilers commonly have two or three chatnbersv
326
-------
Generating capacity — the maximum amount of electrical energy that can be
generated by the steam raised in the corresponding boiler or plant.
(See alsc Load factor)
Hammermill — a machine used to shred solid waste in its raw, heterogeneous
state, producing a more homogeneous material of small particle size. It
consists of a number of large hammers mounted on a horizontal shaft which
spin round and grind the solid waste against an iron grating until the
material is shredded into particles small enough to drop through the
openings in the grating.
Load factor — the ratio of the average load (amount of power) supplied during
a designated period to the maximum amount of electrical power that could
have been supplied by the plant.
Megawatt (MW) — one thousand kilowatts, a measure of the rate of energy genera-
tion or transfer.
Nomograph — a chart which may be used to perform calculations by lining up
the desired values of variables on a number of scales. Such charts are
often used to perform a large number of calculations of the same type
and can substantially reduce the working time required.
Opposed-fired boiler — similar to a front fired boiler except fuel enters from
ports in the back as well as the front.
Peakload boiler — a boiler that operates only when the demand for electric
power is high, such as during the day or during the summer. Peak-
load boilers are generally more costly to operate than baseload
boilers. (See Baseload boilers)
Plant heat rate — a measure of generating station thermal efficiency, usually
expressed as the total Btu content of fuel burned or heat released from
a nuclear reactor for the generation of 1 kilowatt hour.
Power plant— a plant generating electricity for export to consumers, consist-
ing of one or more boilers and one or more sets of generating equipment.
Pulverized coal — coal that has been ground to a fine powder to ensure
efficient combustion when "sprayed" into the combustion air and
ignited. "Pulverized coal" may be compared with "crushed coal,"
which is a term usually used to signify coal that has been broken
down into small pieces, around 1/4-inch in diameter.
Stoker-fired boiler — in which coal is introduced onto a moving grate
near the bottom of the boiler. The coal is in the form of crushed
coal or bulk coal and it burns until the pieces are small enough
to drop through the grate into the ash disposal system.
327
-------
Suspension-fired boiler — in which fuel enters and burns midway between the
top and thfe bottom of the boiler and the heavy noncombustibles fall
down into the bottom. Fuel is usually pulverized coal, oil, or gas.
Some examples of a suspension-fired boiler are cyclone-fired, front
fired, opposed-fired, and tangentially-fired boilers.
Tangentially-fiared boiler — in which fuel enters from each of the four
corners of the boiler.
Wet collector ~ ah air pollution control device in which contact of the
dus't-liltfeir gaseous stream with a liquid, specifically introduced for
such contact, is used to remove dust particles.
