Shoalhaven Landfill Gas Project is located at Nowra, New South Wales, Australia. It collects landfill gas from 55 wells to supply a 1.1 MW Deutz engine to generate electricity. The Shoalhaven project is located at Nowra approximately 2.5 hours south of Sydney. Shoalhaven City Council owns the landfill site and AGL owns the gas extraction and power generation facility and holds the gas rights.The landfill site is expected to provide gas for the electricity project for approximately 15 years. == Fuel source and supply == The facility extracts the methane gas produced by the decomposition of organic matter in the landfill and oxidises the methane via the engine to utilise the energy to produce electricity.Three kilometres of gas pipe has been installed across the landfill site connecting the existing 55 wells to the generator.Up to 20 additional wells may be inserted over the next five years. The wells are up to 15 metres deep. Landfill gas is an environmentally friendly energy source that is derived from the anaerobic decomposition of organic waste matter. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shoalhaven Landfill Gas Project」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
