Document Description
The proposed project includes the removal of two boilers, a steam turbine, cooling towers and associated equipment and the installation of one 300 kilowatt (kW) fuel cell, eight 250 kW microturbines, associated landfill gas compression and treatment equipment, a backup generator, reconfiguration of the aboveground landfill gas collection system, and the use of a low emission flare to combust landfill gas that cannot otherwise be beneficially used for power production. The low emissions flare will have the capacity to provide for the effective, continuous management of all landfill gas when the fuel cell and microturbines are not operating. The existing flares will provide contingent standby capacity for the low emissions flare.
