Abstract
This study aimed to assess the potential of generating electric energy in Egypt from _unicipal solid and liquid waste in addition to agricultural waste and residues to meet the growing nand for electrical energy and improve waste management in general and to protect the vironment by studying waste quantities in all governorates and then comparing different dmologies to produce electrical energy from these wastes. The study included cost-benefit alysis for each of technology and selection of the most economically and technically feasible emative. Also, studying connection to the unified electrical grid. The study also aimed to identify obstacles that may exist in the use of waste in power generation compared to other uses, id then a complete plan was developed for the possibility of using biomass to generate electricity in Egy pt.
The study contains five parts: The first part included SWOT analysis of the Egyptian Electricity Holding Company to put a strategic plan for including biomass energy in the energy Ttfolio in Egypt by making gap analysis and applying an action plan. Whereas, the second part studied the amount of waste generated in each of the governorate, the amount of electricity generation, consumption and cost of producing electrical energy.The third part aimed to assess amount of electricity generated from solid and liquid waste, determine the amount of emissions for the proposed power plants, and also determine the appropriate location for power stations in terms of their proximity to the waste sources and at the same time their proximity to electrical power transmission lines. The fourth part included the calculation of electric power generation from biomass for remote areas and also for some new :enhouse projects far from the unified electrical grid to work as separate electricity production . Finally, the fifth part included estimates about future projection of population growth in Egypt by 2030 and the corresponding increase in waste and thus the amount of electrical energy that can be produced from it.
The following is a summary of the results of the study:Part I: Analysis of the internal and external environment of the electricity sector in Egypt:I. Analysis of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats for power sector has been made to develop new strategic plans to include biomass energy in the Egyptian portfolio through analyzing the gap between the existing and the desired situation and putting an action plan.
Pail II: Determination of the generated waste by each governorate:
2. The highest amount of waste is generated by agricultural residues its percentage is 59.4%, followed by MSW percentage is 26.5% and sewage sludge percentage is 4.3% so, these are the three types of waste were studied.
3. Agricultural residues amount is about 43 million ton/year. About 10 million ton/year are recycled the non-recycled amount is 33 million ton/year concentrated in Mnufia governorate by a percentage of 90%.
4. MSW amount is about 20 million ton/year. About 9% of total waste amount are composted, 2.5% are recycled and 85% are dumped which represents about 17.7 million ton/year concentrated in Cairo, Dakahlia, Giza, Helwan and.
