Mr. Hansen told the council that this has now improved to an 80 percent conversion rate and a 70 percent recovery. Mr. Hansen explained that other hydrolist processes have not had the recovery rate necessary to make a profit. THE BIOMASS concept would allow a private company to utilize municipal garbage to make a profit. The plant which would cost between $12 million and $15 million would be built using pri- changes the cellulose content of municipal garbage into glucose and then through fermentation into alcohol which can be used as a gasoline additive.

The company would ask the city to give industrial revenue bonds. Favorable tax incentives and a reasonably priced plant site would also be considerations Biomass would want before locating in an area. It would require about 300 tons of garbage daily to operate the plant. LITTLE water would be needed because distilled water is another of this garbage treatment system. Municipal garbage that does not contain cellulose would be of Rainbow and Fairfield. There is a serious safety problem because children walk through this intersection on their way to the E.G.

Some of this dirt could possibly be recovered in a pellet form and used for fertilizer. fill. AT THE present time, Biomass has only the one pilot plant in operation. Before con- structing workable plants, they are waiting for an engineering study by Stone and Webester to be completed. This study will contain a commercial design package that can be used by cities. It will be 'totttflCtd'Tiirthrmrtf the year. The first cities to be serviced by a Biomass plant will probably not be in Utah. Montana, Idaho and many foreign countries have expressed interest in Biomass plants. The tax incentive for using alcohol in gasoline is better in Montana. Their needs are more critical. We will probably go there first, Mr. Brown stated. Brazil now runs automobiles on a 20 percent alcohol mixture. Representatives from this country have shown interest in the Biomass process. ONE OF the biggest plus factors for this type of garbage conversion is that the end product, alcohol or ethelene (one refinery step from metholene that is used to create over 400,000 products), is marketable anywhere. The plant is not tied to a industrial user of steam or any other single business or company. At the conclusion of the hour-lon- g presentation, Mr. Brown stated he would envision within five years that every major city in the United States could have some type of municipal garbage conversion system. Wait, watch and see what develops. If you install a plant of this nature, now, you will be able to get the product at a low price. By waiting a few months, you will benefit from the technology being de- veloped. -- Call Earns Doctorate Terry W.
