warm-water aquaculture tanks. The exhaust, which is uncontaminated by oil or other fluid vapor, is even used directly to provide CO2 enrichment for enhanced hydroponics vegetable growth. landfill gas. As with all new technologies, there are questions as to long-term reliability and operation costs. These risks can be mitigated by owners/operators of microturbine projects by pursuing projects with the most rapid rates of return. In particular for Calabasas Landfill, the project partners have learned the following details during the operation of the microturbines: • Fuel compressor should ideally deliver 100 psig to surmount fuel train pressure losses while providing adequate fuel pressure to the microturbines. • If a PLC is used as an additional layer of control over the microturbine array, Modbus translators used on individual microturbines can provide faster response and improved communications. • The gas processing system should automatically shutdown if the refrigerated dryer/chiller is not operating to specification (e.g., chilled gas temperature rises above 50°F). REFERENCES Thanks to Jeff Pierce of SCS Engineers, and Rene Flores and Keith Field of Capstone Turbine Corporation for their helpful contributions. Figure 4 – New Jersey EcoComplex Installation & Schematic In Illinois, a 12-microturbine array is due to go online in April 2003 at a landfill situated near a high school. Heat from the LFG-fueled MicroTurbines will serve hot water needs at the school while power not utilized at the campus (particularly overnight) will be exported to the Commonwealth Edison grid. Three other landfill installations of Capstone microturbines are underway: a single-engine installation in Florida and an 8-unit deployment at each of two different Wisconsin landfills. CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS Microturbines can satisfy a niche in the distributed generation market, and can be successfully operated onPDF Image | MICROTURBINE OPERATING EXPERIENCE AT LANDFILLS
