Landll Gas-to Energy Project - cont. Each microturbine also produces exhaust energy of 290,000 Btu/hr at 550°F. The exhaust from the microturbines is routed through a waste heat recovery system. The waste heat recovery units have been designed for maximum exibility, so, by varying ow and inlet uid temperature, a wide variety of needs can be met for hot water. Generating the Heat At times when waste heat recovery is not required by the Antioch Community High School, the exhaust can be automatically diverted around the exchanger, allowing for continued electrical output. During months when the Antioch Community High School cannot use all of the heat from the waste heat recovery system, it is possible to route some of this heat to other area businesses or industries. Teaming Up This project is a prime example of how innovative partnerships and programs create win-win situations. The team of key players includes RMT, HOD Landll, Antioch Community High School, Village of Antioch, Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, Com Ed, and the USEPA. RMT continues to work with local government, school ofcials, and the USEPA, in addition to managing the ongoing construction activities. These activities include hiring subcontractors to install equipment such as the microturbines and extension of pipes from the landll to the school, and providing community relations services. A Win-Win Situation After months of planning, installing equipment, and testing, Antioch Community School District 117 and RMT have completed this landll gas-to-energy project, setting the high school on track to be one of the rst in the country to use landll gas for heat and electrical production. Both the school and the community are seeing multiple rewards: • Low energy costs for the high school • Revenue from sale of electricity to Com Ed • Clean, complete combustion of waste gas • Waste heat for internal use in the high school • Reduced greenhouse gas emissions • Public relations opportunities for Antioch Community High School and the community as the rst school district in the U.S. to get electricity and heat from landll gas • Education opportunities in biology, physics, chemistry, economics, and environmental management as a result of this on-campus, state-of-the art gas-to-energy system Torresani explains, “The project is truly unique and will make the most of a valuable energy resource. Starting in the 2003 school year, the annual savings to the school in energy costs are anticipated to be over $100,000 a year. The school, its students, the community, the public, and the environment all benet.” For more information on this landll gas-to-energy project, contact Mark Torresani in RMT’s Madison ofce at 608/831-4444 or visit www.rmtinc.com.
