Green Power Technologies Can Provide a Renewable Feedstock for Waste-to-Energy and Power Utility Companies
Biofuels derived from the organic content of municipal waste streams through Green Power Technologies waste conversion process are consistent with the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) definition of renewable energy sources. The DOE, through the Energy Policy Act (EPAct) of 2005, defines renewable energy as: “Energy generated from solar, wind, biomass, landfill gas, ocean (including tidal, wave, current, and thermal), geothermal, municipal solid waste, or new hydroelectric”
Green Power Technologies’ Advanced Waste Conversion Process Offers Advantages Over Other Existing Processes Utilizing Municipal Solid Waste to Generate Energy
- By eliminating the non-combustible recyclables, such as metal and glass and other inert materials, the residual feedstock has a much higher Btu value.
- The BTU value is further enhanced; significantly, by the dramatic reduction in moisture content after the organic material is processed in the autoclaves.
- That higher BTU value translates, directly, into higher energy output without incurring the capital cost of expanding the combustion capacity.
