Landfill Operations Info• Avg. 650 tons/day• Mixed waste stream• No water addition• Cover 1 day/week

Landfill Gas• Landfill primarily produces methane and carbon
dioxide through anaerobic decomposition.• Methane is twenty-one times more potent GHG
than carbon dioxide.• Monitoring and reporting is required weekly and
monthly.• Landfills are required to control migration at all
times.• Many possible methods of control including
gas to energy projects.

Project Beginnings• EPA Landfill Methane Outreach Program (LMOP)
www.epa.gov/lmop• Who should we partner with? Local utility, rural
electric coop, gas pipeline, local school?• What will it cost and will it pay for itself?• Environmental & Landfill Impacts?• Feasibility Study, Shaw Emcon/OWT March 2004

Methane Recovery Project Organization
• Joint Partnership between City of Springfield (COS) and City Utilities (CU)• COS Sanitary Landfill responsible for gas collection and supply to CU• CU responsible for generation facility and power distribution• Equal partnership in success and/or failure

Landfill Gas System Characteristics
• 80 vertical wells & blower/flare skid• Total over 30,000 ft. pipe• Installed cost approx. $1,900,000• Projected LFG avg. flow of 1200 scfm• LFG avg. 50-60% methane and 40% CO2

Project Status• Project was dedicated in May 2006.• Steadily producing 2.5 to 3 MW of renewable energy for City Utilities customer.• Gas quality and production has been relatively close to projections.

What’s the next step?• Engines are 35-40 percent efficient.• Most of the energy produced is being lost as heat.• How do we capture this valuable resource?

The Prototype• Northern Tier Solid Waste Authority in Pennsylvania• SWANA Gold Award in 2008 for landfill gas utilization.• 14,400 ft^2 greenhouse utilizes 1.85 million btu/hour.• Producing multiple varieties of lettuce using deep pool hydroponics.• ONLY using jacket water from one Caterpillar 3520 engine.
![Page 18: Waste Heat for Power](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062316/568168ac550346895ddf55d6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
How do we make this work here?
• City received $40,000 from American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and the Transform Missouri Initiative administered by MDNR.• Conduct market research and feasibility study. • Includes multiple team members; City, CU, MSU, consultants, interested community members, others.• Provided market research, financial analysis, basic facility design, and identified potential partners.
![Page 19: Waste Heat for Power](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062316/568168ac550346895ddf55d6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Initial Indications• 95% of our produce is imported.• Estimate approximately 14 million btu/hour of available waste heat from both sources. Also provides potential for 1000 tons of cooling.• Based on prototype and interviews with other operations, enough heat is available to support up to a 2-4 acre greenhouse, depending on whether the heat was captured from both heat sources
![Page 20: Waste Heat for Power](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062316/568168ac550346895ddf55d6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Why do we think it will succeed?
• A minimum of 25% of greenhouse operation cost is energy.• City owns the property – no land costs• Potential exists to produce locally grown organic produce or other products.• Demonstrates positive impact on the environment through renewable energy and eliminating long haul imports.• Creates local jobs and eliminates some dependency on outside food sources.• Increasing public interest in local, fresh, organically grown products confirmed by study.

Current Project Status• Initial Market research and feasibility study are complete.• Springfield City Council and other team members are trying to develop a plan for moving forward.• Funding sources, design details, crops, and partner/ operator are factors that have to be resolved as we move forward.• Public meeting is scheduled for May 8, 2013 to present the project top a group of potential partners, community leaders, and others interested in the project.
