| description | A techno-economic
assessment of the implementation of waste to energy (WTE) technology in
Indonesia was performed by simulating the business model of a 1000 ton-per-day
WTE facility that satisfied a set of economic parameters. Two types of
municipal solid waste (MSW) quality were selected for the case study: (1) Low
calorific value MSW, 6860 KJ/Kg-as received, taken from the municipal temporary
waste collection station in South Tangerang city; and (2) High calorific value
MSW, 8970 MJ/kg-as received, taken from a temporary waste collection point in a
residential apartment in Jakarta city. For the low calorific value MSW, the
base pricing set of IDR 500,000/tons for the tipping fee and IDR 1500/kwh as
the electricity selling price was not economically feasible as it resulted in a
negative Net Present Value (NPV), a lower Internal Rate of Return (IRR) than
the applied Discount Rate (13%), and a Payback Period (PP) of over five years.
It is compulsory to set pricing of either IDR 600,000/tons for the tipping fee
or IDR 1750 as the electricity price. In the case of the high calorific value
MSW, the base pricing set could be economically feasible as it resulted in an
NPV, IRR, and PP of IDR 209.7 billion, 16.38%, and 4.8 years, respectively.
Moreover, a reduction in the pricing to either IDR 400,000/tons for the tipping
fee or IDR 1350 for electricity may still satisfy the minimum limits of the
parameters sets. The results of this study are expected to provide a clearer
picture of both the potential and challenges of bringing WTE technology to
commercial application, especially in Indonesia. |
