Project Name Controlled combustion of municipal solid waste (MSW) and energy generation in Linyi City, Shandong, China (the Project activity or the Project)
Country China
Sectoral Scope 1, 13
Description The Project activity involves the controlled combustion of municipal solid waste (MSW) to generat electricity and heat in Linyi City, Shandong Province, China. Two waste-combustion fluid-bed boilers with rated steam capacities of 75t/hour, and each able to deal with 400t/day of MSW will be installed to achieve this. The waste will be co-combusted with coal in order to ensure complete firing of the waste. Steam produced by the boilers will feed into 25MW steam turbine-generator which is expected to generate 168,300MWh/yr of electricity for use on site and for export to the local grid. The project is also expected to produce 912,000 GJ/yr of thermal energy for export to customers in a nearby wood-processing industrial park. Total emission reductions over the 7-year crediting period are expected to be in the region of 466,893 tCO2e.

Comment 1
Name Teresa Chang Country China
This project uses Circulating Fluidized Bed technology for waste incineration, not rotating fluidized bed or hearth or grate type as indicated in the methodology.
The project annually co-fires 73,000 tons coal to produce power, which equals to 20% of the waste conbusted in quantity. Actually more than 50% of power generated is contributed from this portion of coal.
This project is hard to be said as a MSW conbustion project. Even the Chinese regulation deems it as a coal fired power plant instead of an encouraged renewable energy project (http://www.gov.cn/ztzl/2006-01/20/content_165910.htm which indicated projects with the ratio of the fossil fuel consumption higher than 20% of the gross heat consumption should be treated as convential power plant. In waste conbustion case, it means coal usage must be lower thanroughly 8% in overall quantity )
