美国蒙托克可再生能源公司将在加州奥兰治县建造沼气设施
据管道新闻网6月27日消息称，蒙托克可再生能源公司周二表示，将在加利福尼亚州尔湾市的一个城市垃圾填埋场开发一个可再生天然气（RNG）项目。
可再生天然气，也被称为沼气，是从垃圾填埋场的有机废物中捕获的，可以作为化石燃料天然气的替代品，从而降低碳足迹。

该公司表示，该项目将由其子公司鲍尔曼电力公司在Frank R. Bowerman垃圾填埋场承担。
这标志着蒙托克在奥兰治县的第二次垃圾填埋气发电计划，以及2016年委托的现有20兆瓦可再生发电设施。
该公司表示，该项目的资本投资估计在8500万至9500万美元之间，预计2026年投产，每天生产约36亿英热单位。
“我们与蒙托克的合作项目支持循环经济，通过回收废物并生产可再生天然气，这些天然气可用于为汽车提供动力，为家庭供暖，并在我们的社区发电。”奥兰治县废物与回收部门主任Tom Koutroulis说。

Montauk Renewables to Build Biogas Facility in Orange County, California
Montauk Renewables Inc. said on Tuesday it will develop a renewable natural gas (RNG) project at a municipal waste landfill site in Irvine, California.
RNG, also known as biogas, is captured from organic waste in landfills and can be a substitute to fossil-fuel natural gas, resulting in a lower carbon footprint.
The company said the project will be undertaken by its subsidiary Bowerman Power at the Frank R. Bowerman waste landfill site.
This marks Montauk"s second landfill gas-to-energy initiative in Orange County alongside the existing 20-megawatt renewable electric generation facility commissioned by it in 2016.
Capital investment for the project is estimated between $85 million and $95 million, the company said, with its commissioning expected in 2026 to produce about 3,600 million British thermal units per day.
"Our project with Montauk supports the circular economy by taking a waste product and producing renewable natural gas that can be used to power vehicles, heat homes and generate electricity in our communities," said Tom Koutroulis, director of the Orange County Waste & Recycling Department.
