Chapter 2 Evaluation of Combined Heat and Power Technologies for Wastewater Treatment Facilities emissions. To improve rich-burn engine emissions, catalytic converters have been tried with minimal success because even momentary trace amounts of siloxanes and sulfur compounds can quickly foul catalytic converters. The best available control technology (BACT) for digester gas-fueled internal combustion engines is lean-burn combustion only. Internal combustion engines manufacturers continue to work at developing new engines with improved fuel efficiency and emissions performance. As a result several new generation lean-burn engines have reached the market place in recent years. Table 2-1 summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of operating a reciprocating internal combustion engines as part of a CHP system. Table 2-2.
