Barry Sullivan, Downer Utilities Australia
Details
Choosing a Waste to Energy technology requires and understanding not only of the available technologies and what they can accomplish but also of the waste stream available to that technology including waste makeup and volume.
Downer Group analysed the technologies available from other parts of the world and the waste streams available in Australia before selecting a technology to represent in Australia.
This session will look at the analysis that Downer used to evaluate the various technologies based on available waste streams. A look at the amount of waste required for each of the technologies (size of the required facility), how each of the technologies required a concise or in many cases a changing waste stream and what offtakes could be supplied by the technology.
