Technical evaluation study: engery recovery from solid waste at Fort Dix, NJ and nearby civilian communities. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5740464
;

This study investigated the technical and economic feasibility of energy and materials recovery from solid waste presently landfilled at Fort Dix, NJ. The waste stream consists of conventional mixed solid waste generated at Fort Dix and adjacent McGuire Air Force Base(AFB). The available energy content of the waste stream is approximately 21.4 x 1,000,000 Btu/year from 18,600 tons/year mixed solid waste. Combining civilian waste from nearby communities with the military waste stream was considered. A total of 73,900 tons/year could be processed and the heat energy utilized.
