Abstract
This paper presents one year's (June 1976–May 1977) operational and economic information in the refuse-derived fuel pneumatic transport and storage subsystems of the Ames, Iowa, solid waste recovery system. A review of the system design is also included. Resultant average cost per unit mass is $8.60/Mg, of which 63% is capital, 16% is labor and the remainder is electrical energy and repair.
