ASEF solid waste to methane gas, Pompano Beach, Florida. RefCOM status report, covering the start-up phase, March 15-October 15, 1978
Delays in the start-up of the RefCOM facility in Pompano Beach, Florida, are outlined. The most serious delays involved problems with the screw conveyors. After many modifications had proven futile, it was decided that they were not applicable to the system and the screw conveyors were replaced with a rotary feeder. An itemized, chronological list of all plant modifications including the cost of labor and materials are presented in this report. Diagrams and daily work sheets are included. (DMC)
