| Abstract | The economics of various types of resource recovery systems are difficult to compare. System technologies vary, capital and operating costs vary, revenues from the recovered products vary, the recovered products themselves vary, and the cost accounting methods used to analyze system economics vary. This paper proposed a method of reporting costs and revenues to aid in comparing the costs of various resource recovery systems. The proposed method includes a standardized accounting format and a normalized accounting format. |
