U of M researchers study waste to energy system
A University of Minnesota team led by Perry L. Blackshear Jr. proposes converting Minneapolis area solid waste to energy at about $6 per ton. The process could yield commercial gas twice the university's energy use, with plant costs estimated at 40 to 50 million dollars and minimal pollution. Ammonia, metals, and waste heat could be recovered for value. An associated study suggests statewide animal waste methane could meet about 44 percent of Minnesota's energy needs.
