Air products retreats from waste-to-energy. 160302

Air products & chemicals is ending a costly foray into the waste -to-energy business. Because of technical issues, it will not commission a pair of plasma gasification plants in tees Valley, England, and will instead write down as much as $ 1 billion in cost.
....The largest of these, in Wuhan , China, can process 150 metric tons of wood waste per day.
Combustion plants, however, are cheaper.  One that turns 1,000 tons of waste per day into 35MW
cost about $ 250 million to build.
