TOluJU? Ross bCb III. PROJECT CONSTRUCTION AND PHASING I The proposed New Brighton waste-to-energy facility would be located in the New Brighton Industrial Park on vacant property south of Gordon Rendering (refer to Exhibit A on page 3). The facility will convert municipal solid waste to steam. The steam will be either sold directly to thermal energy users or will be converted to electricity which will be sold to the NSP grid. The waste-to-energy conversion equipment will be totally enclosed in a concrete and steel building. The building will contain sufficient space for the tipping floor, the modular incinerators and associated waste heat boilers, the standby boilers, the electric generation equipment and space for office operations. The waste-to-energy facility contains three 50 ton per day, mass burn, modular incinerators. The design and cost of the waste- to-energy equipment assumed in this study are based on Consumat I nc. equipment. I The construction phasing assumes that project financing is final~zed as of January 1, 1983. Plant construction is assumed to be completed by December 30, 1984. This two year period includes time estimates for: obtaining final Local, State and Federal permits; land acquisition; completion of detail engineering design; material procurement; site development; fabrication and installation of equipment; facilities construction; identification and hiring of administrative and operational personnel and development of operating and training material and time tables. Start-up operations follow in 1985. The major components of the New Brighton waste-to-Energy District Heating system are listed below. The total project cost is estimated to be $7,576,360.
