Abstract/Contents: | "A couple of miles from Ieper, Belgium's central market square, modern industrial structures group around two prominent 49 feet high, light grey painted digester tanks. This is the home of Flanders' largest anaerobic waste treatment plant... The plant not only produces enough energy to meet its own thermal and electrical energy demand, but it also feeds more than 50% of its total generated electricity into the electric utility grid system. It provides enough "green" electricity for 2,000 homes. In tandem with its composting process, the plant produces 18,740 tons of high-grade compost when operating at full capacity. A "green" electricity certificate scheme was implemented resulting in a current market value of about 98 euro per MWh for "green" electricity. The design criterion called for a processing plant with a nominal treatment capacity of 38,554 tons per year for SSOW and green waste on a 10-acre property. " |
