The preliminary design will consist of preliminary design drawings of the proposed system, South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) permitting, and assessment of the feasibility of offsite power distribution for excess generating capacity. The preliminary design will include the assessment of hot water waste heat from the engines in the wastewater facility. Background The City of Redlands and J&A has conducted a preliminary evaluation of the feasibility of using LFG and digester gas to generate electricity for use at the wastewater treatment facility. The wastewater facility currently uses approximately 500 to 600 kW of electricity. The LFG collection system is capable of supplying approximately 900 kW of electricity in 2001, with continued increase of flow in the future as the landfill expands. Table 1 is a chart showing the expected increase in LFG production and the corresponding electricity generation. The volume of digester gas is not known at this time and will be evaluated further. However' it is possible that an additional 10% - 20% electricity generation couldbe achieved by combining the gas from both the landfill collection system and the Wastewater Treatment Plant digesters. The existing LFG collection and flare system consists of 68 vertical and horizontal LFG extraction wells, collection piping, and an enclosed flare for disposing of the collected LFG. Task Descriptions The preliminary design of Engine Generator Facility (EGF) will consist of (1) South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Permits; (2) Preliminary LFG Engine Generator Design; (3) Preliminary Design of Offsite Power Distribution; and (4) Flare Station Modifications. Each of these tasks is described below. Task 1 SCAQMD Permits This task consists of preparing a permit package and obtaining a Permit to Construct and a Permit to Operate from the SCAQMD for installation of the Engine Generator System. It is assumed that the City of Redlands will pay all permit fees. An expedited permit process will be necessary to obtain the permits as needed. SCAQMD has an expedited permit process for an additional fee. The additional fee will be determined prior to submittal. Additional permits from local authorities may be necessary. MA will assist the City with obtaining these permits as needed. Due to the uncertainty of the requirements for these permits, the budget does not contain funds for this work. Task 2 Preliminary LFG Engine Generator Design The preliminary design of the Engine Generator Facility will include assessment of the engine generators options, process and instrumentation design and specifying, preliminary electrical service design, the layout of the enclosure building, and modifications to the existing system. MA has prepared a preliminary layout of the system based on the existing facility. The preliminary layout of the system is shown on Figure 1. The design includes one or two engine generators (depending on the engine manufacturer and offsite power distribution options discussed later), process piping and controls, an after-cooler and coalescing filter. The proposed location of the Engine Generator Facility is shown on Figure 2. Close proximity to the flare station is desirable for electrical service and process piping, however the City may prefer an alternative location. The approximate space required is 92 ft. by 50 ft. If a single engine is used, the size of the facility can be reduced. The results of the preliminary design will be presented in a Basis of Design report. The report will include a summary of LFG generation estimates, preliminary design drawings, supporting engineering calculations, and a detailed cost estimate of construction. Feasibility of proposed options, such as the use of digester gas and the recycling of hot water to the wastewater facility will be presented in the report. Task 3 Preliminary Design of Offsite Power Distribution Preliminary Design of Offsite Power Distribution will be necessary if the City is capable of producing electrical power beyond the needs of the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The power distribution design would include design of step- up transformers to deliver the electricity at 4160 volts (onsite power would be generated at 480 volts) and the design of a transmission line to the nearest transmission station. This task will consist of evaluating the benefits and costs of production of the additional electricity. The cost of power distribution should be estimated prior to proceeding with detailed design. The cost of increasing the capacity of the Engine Generator Facility from 600 kW to 1 MW will likely be in the range of $300,000 to $400,000. However, the cost of installation of the transmission line may approach an additional $200,000. These estimates will be refined to be used for determining the feasibility of this component. The results of this evaluation will be presented in the Basis of Design Report.
