Abstract
This report is a comprehensive study of solid waste generation in Chautauqua County and the potential for energy and materials recovery from these wastes. There are six major topics presented in this report, all evolving around the feasibility evaluation of a municipal waste resource recovery system. These topic areas are: The existing solid waste disposal system and determination of waste quantities for design parameters by a field weighing program; Examination of existing and potential energy and materials markets which would utilize the recovered waste products; Review of existing energy resource recovery technologies applicable to Chautauqua County energy markets; Study of waste transport schemes for various resource recovery processing plant/fuel user locations; Determination of specific solid and gaseous refuse derived fuel systems and application to site-specific energy user conditions; Suggested implementation strategy.
