Municipality of Chatham-Kent, Ontario - Earth Tech Canada Inc., 105 Commerce Valley Dr. W, Markham, On L3T 7W3
& Kinectrics Inc., 800 Kipling Ave, Toronto, ON M8Z 6C4 (Project: 55484)
Sept 2003
The Municipality of Chatham-Kent, in consultation with representatives
from the agricultural and academic sectors, determined that the
feasibility of generating alternative "green"energy from the processing
of an organic-based feedstock using anaerobic digestion (AD) Technology
should be investigated.
In order to determine the feasibility of anaerobic digestion as an
alternative management option for organic wastes generated within the
Municipality, the following factors were considered:
- The general viability of anaerobic digestion technologies.
- The location and characteristics of available organic waste streams.
- Energy generation potential
- By-product (ie compost and liquid fertilizer) management options.
- Net revenue (ie revenue minus capital operating costs)
The subject study has established a basis upon which the Municipality,
in cooperation with Chatham Hydro and Ridgetown College can understake
the more detailed analyses necessary to complete the business planning
for "the first" anaerobic digestion facility in Chatham-Kent
