1. The Hoskinson Team description The Hoskinson Team designs, builds, owns and operates renewable energy from waste baseload power plants. Hoskinson leads a best-in-class team of engineers; contractors; and material suppliers to create dependable, battle-tested base load power plants. All data with respect to potential equipment configurations and performance is based on information provided by reputable vendors of representative equipment. Depending on the project, its scope, and location, Hoskinson or Abengoa may fill the EPC role for the Team.

• The Hoskinson Group, LLC is responsible for the manufacture and installation of the core pyrolytic gasification units. Its role may also include serving as the EPC, and/or the selection of all final equipment vendors and contractors as well as directing all system engineering, integration, construction, and subsequent operational activities.

• Abengoa, SA (Abeinsa Engineering, Procurement & Construction Services) may provide EPC services or provide other critical support services as may be required. This could include other engineering support activities on the project such as vendor coordination, logistics, as well as support during shakedown and commissioning of the Facility.

The team’s strengths are experience, proven methodology & technology, velocity to the market, simplified design, build, and operate models, use of proven pollution control equipment, lower cost, higher reliability, capable and proven manufacturing capabilities, short time of construction on the site, and very efficient conversion of waste to energy. There is very little fabrication at the site and as such, the “bolt together” design drives outstanding quality, easy maintenance, and minimal downtime. All system components will be shipped to the site and will be assembled on site by the local contractors under the direction of Hoskinson. Our design employs the features and benefits of modular construction and pre-planned expansion in the future to accommodate additional capacity if required without disruption of operations. Recycling operations are designed to meet the special needs of the site and the type of material. Ancillary equipment is included that is necessary to efficiently and effectively operate the Facility.

1.1. The Hoskinson Group, LLC The Hoskinson Group (www.thehoskinsongroup.com) is responsible for the manufacture and installation of the core pyrolytic gasification units. Its role may also serve as the EPC and/or include the selection of all final equipment vendors and contractors as well as directing all system engineering, integration, construction, and subsequent operational activities. The Hoskinson Group is a U.S. company with a proven process and technology for gasifying and combusting many types of difficult waste into energy: Municipal, Industrial, Medical, Tires, etc.

Gordon Hoskinson, the inventor of the core technology and founder of this latest corporation in 2005, has been producing machines of this type now for 40 years, has sold many smaller machines throughout Europe and the U.S. throughout his lifetime, and is referred to as the “Father of Modern pyrolysis and gasification” by the U.S. EPA. Using a steam-to-turbine/generator methodology, this design has proven to be one of the most reliable methods of base power production in the industry. One of the primary reasons for the success of the Hoskinson design is the ability to very efficiently combust waste with a moisture content of up to 60%, which is very common outside of the U.S. and Europe. Companies that purchased his technology more than 20 years ago include well-known names such as Xerox, Andersen Windows, Allen Bradley, ADM (Archer-Daniels-Midland), General Electric, Briggs & Stratton, Beech Aircraft, Allis Chalmers, Nabisco, John Deere, etc. Government entities include the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Secret Service, U.S. Postal Service, the DEA, the Navy and Air Force and the U.S. Army, and several International Airports including the Minneapolis, Ft. Lauderdale, Dayton, etc. A significant number of major hospitals and teaching Universities purchased the Hoskinson technology to destroy medical waste, and in almost all cases, generate hot water or steam for use in their facilities including Emory University, Texas Tech Medical Center, Tulane University Medical Center, Metropolitan Medical Center in Minneapolis, and most of the major hospitals in New York. Over the same period of time, Mr. Hoskinson franchised his designs to more than 20 domestic and international manufacturers, including Kelly, Hovel, Midland-Ross, and others. Version 3 examples of his designs that we know are currently in service include installations in Harford County Maryland USA, The Region of Peel (Algonquin Power), Ontario, Canada, and Hollywood Florida. Version 4 plants were built in Korea. And now three years of intense research is complete and from that research, major efficiency innovations have been added to his latest Version 5 designs building on the same core principles developed by him in earlier generations.

1.2. Abeinsa Engineering, Procurement & Construction Services

the corresponding services in order to minimize fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions while maximizing the load factor (real vs. expected electricity production).

2. Plant Capacity and Pollution Control Design Hoskinson proposes to design and construct a WtE facility for recovery of energy from municipal solid waste (MSW) utilizing its pyrolytic gasification units to produce a synthetic fuel gas (syngas) that will be combusted in its primary and secondary chambers. The overall Capacity can range from as little as 50 tons per day to as much as 1,400 tons per day per facility. The final facility design will be specified to manage all the resulting waste from the site after a common-sense recycling effort is conducted. This can also include medical or industrial waste. The heat created will be used to produce steam that will drive a turbine generator, which will produce electricity. The entire Facility will operate 24-7 with minimal downtime for maintenance. The duty cycle is predicted to be continuous with ±2 days per month per combustor scheduled downtime. The time to cool down a combustor from operating temperature will be minimal and the time to get to operating temperature from a black start is approximately 90 minutes. This dramatically reduces the amount of fossil fuel needed for black start operations and service operations are shorter when portions of the system are shut down. This is one of the factors of maintaining an online capacity factor of up to 93%. These and other associated components such as the Air Quality Control train (AQC) will be sized such that it will operate at less than 100% capacity to easily deliver the required steam and flow conditions to the turbine/gen set.

The Facility will process MSW and other waste materials to produce a syngas consisting primarily of hydrocarbons as the fuel components. The Project will combust the syngas in a proprietary multi-stage process followed by a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) to generate superheated steam which then drives a steam turbine-generator providing electrical energy. Turbine exhaust steam will be condensed in an air-cooled condenser. Condensate is collected and pumped back through the deaerator (DA) and pumped back to the HRSG package. Flue gas from the secondary chamber will be conditioned to remove particulate matter (PM/PM10), acid gases, including sulfur dioxide (SO2) and hydrogen chloride (HCl), nitrogen dioxides (NOx), mercury and other trace elements before being discharged to the stack. The Project design consists of the following major systems and components, which are described in more detail later in this proposal:

• Waste receiving and sorting systems; • Material handling systems; • Pyrolytic Gasification units including Primary, Thermo-stack, and Secondary Thermal oxidation

chambers; • Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG); • Flue gas desulfurization system for removal of SO2 from the flue gas; • Activated carbon injection for mercury control;

• SCR to control NOx in the flue gas; • High efficiency dust collection system using fabric filters for PM

removal; • High efficiency steam turbine-generator; • Air-cooled condenser; • Emergency diesel generator; and • Overall Command & Control Systems

To minimize generation of nitrogen oxides from nitrogen compounds contained in the syngas, a proprietary multi-stage oxidation process is utilized. The secondary chamber includes a hot, proprietary zone to ensure thorough mixing occurs between the incoming syngas and the products of oxidation. This feature significantly reduces NOx emissions. Due to its heat content and ability to sustain oxidation, the syngas from the primary chamber is introduced into the thermostack, which will contain a set of auxiliary burners. The burners will also have the ability to fire natural gas for those rare periods of operation where the syngas does not contain the necessary heat content, such as during a black start. The air-to-syngas ratio will be controlled at a confidential stoichiometric ratio to maintain an oxygen deficient (reducing) atmosphere with an operating temperature between 1,800°F and 2,300°F. To ensure that the syngas has a stable ignition source, the secondary thermal oxidization chamber will also be supplied with an auxiliary natural gas burner. The auxiliary burner will be mounted near the syngas burner to ensure that the incoming syngas will pass directly through the flame front. The primary syngas and products of oxidation mix in the secondary chamber. Air is added to the oxidizing section through a proprietary process that results in a high temperature oxidizing section. The oxidizing section will be controlled at an operating temperature of at least 1,850°F and with a sufficient residence time to ensure that complete oxidation of the organic compounds in the off-gas stream. A flue gas desulfurization (FGD) system, utilizing limestone or an equivalent reagent as the injection sorbent material will be installed to control emissions of acid gases, including sulfur dioxide (SO2) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). The sorbent will be stored in a silo with a bin vent for loading. The sorbent will be withdrawn from the bin and pneumatically conveyed to the flue duct upstream of the fabric filters. The sorbent will mix with the flue gas and absorb SO2 and HCl. Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) emissions are also controlled by the sorbent injection system. The Project will include a powdered activated carbon (PAC) injection system and fabric filter or baghouse to capture the spent carbon and FGD effluent. This system will be designed and implemented for reduction of mercury and as a polishing step for additional control of trace elements. Similar to limestone, PAC will be delivered to the project site via trucks and stored in a silo. The storage silo will be pneumatically loaded and will be equipped with a bin vent fabric filter for

minimizing any PM emissions from the unloading process. The PAC will then be injected into the flue gas stream ahead of the baghouse. In the unlikely event of a sudden increase in the production of syngas in the gasifier that cannot be accommodated by the secondary chamber or the sudden unavailability of the chamber or induced draft fans, it may be necessary to vent syngas to the emergency flare while the gasifier is being shut down. This will be accomplished by means of a flare stack designed to assure oxidation of the syngas and safe release of the final products of oxidation. It is not anticipated that use of the flare system will be required during either normal start up or shutdown of the system or during unplanned shutdowns, as the exhaust gas would continue to be directed through the thermostack and secondary chamber and be subjected to all of the downstream control systems.

3. Gross and net energy design parameters Based on our current preliminary estimates, we will deliver a high-efficiency, HRSG / Steam Turbine / Generator set coupled with our Pyrolytic Gasifier and Combustion units to produce approximately 16 MW of power, depending on the final waste fuel mix available. Approximately a ± 12% parasitic load is expected.

4. Technology

4.1. Core Technology Choice Abener Engineering & Construction Services, LLC (a subsidiary of Abengoa SA), and others performed an extensive search of the prevailing waste-to-energy technologies that are commercially available in the world’s marketplace. The search reviewed more than forty (40) established and emerging companies utilizing advanced thermal conversion technologies such as conventional gasification, pyrolysis, pyrolysis/ gasification and plasma gasification. Due to the corporate focus of the team, the search did not include conventional mass-burn incineration or biological and chemical conversion technologies. Likewise, with the exception of one technology, traditional combustion was not considered due its more capital-intensive pollution abatement systems, additional environmental challenges, and perceived benefits, and performance considerations. Using a four-step screening and review process, a number of technologies were short-listed based on a minimum high-level performance, environmental, and financial criteria. The companies representing the short listed technologies were invited to respond to a Request for Proposal (RFP) in order to identify the final technologies that warranted further investigation. The process engineering group from Fluor Enterprises, Inc. (“Fluor”) was retained to provide engineering review of these technologies. This resulted in a final shortlist that expanded the final engineering review of each technology and business related discussions with each company.

Through this exhaustive review and selection process, it was determined that The Hoskinson Group’s technology was commercially proven, insurable, and able to achieve the performance guarantees needed for the project. Therefore, Hoskinson was selected as the core gasification technology for construction of Waste-to-Energy Facilities initially in all of the Americas for this group.

4.2. The Waste Handling Conversion Process This proprietary Pyrolytic Gasification and Oxidation process, developed by Hoskinson nearly 45 years ago and perfected over the same time, provides a near complete level of waste reduction with very little fly ash. The following are some definitions of thermal processes that are used within the core Pyrolytic Gasification and Combustion unit. • Dehydration or partial drying process of the Prepared Waste occurs

at around 800°C within the primary chamber. Typically the resulting steam is mixed into the gas flow some of which is involved with subsequent chemical reactions.

• Pyrolysis is a thermo-chemical decomposition of organic materials at elevated temperatures without the participation of oxygen also within the primary chamber. It involves the simultaneous change of chemical composition and physical phase, and is irreversible. In our process, a controlled amount of oxygen is introduced to allow gasification to occur inside the Primary Chamber. Because some oxygen is present in the system, a small amount of oxidation occurs.

• Gasification is the process that converts organic or fossil based carbonaceous materials into principally carbon monoxide, hydrogen, other hydrocarbons, and carbon dioxide. This is achieved by reacting the material at high temperatures (>800°C), without combustion, with a controlled amount of oxygen and steam from the moisture in the waste. The resulting gas mixture is called syngas (from synthesis gas or synthetic gas) and is itself a fuel. The power derived from gasification of biogenic waste and oxidation of the resultant gas is considered to be a source of renewable energy. Our gasification stage uses the syngas more efficiently than direct combustion of the original fuel because it is be combusted at higher temperatures. Syngas may be burned directly in gas engines, used to produce methanol and hydrogen or other products. Gasification can also begin with material, which would otherwise have been disposed of such as biodegradable waste. In addition, the high-temperature process refines out many of the corrosive ash elements, allowing a cleaner gas production from otherwise problematic fuels.

• Combustion stage of the process occurs as the volatile products react with oxygen within the Thermostack to primarily form carbon dioxide and small amounts of carbon monoxide, which provides heat for the subsequent gasification reactions.

In essence, a limited amount of oxygen or air is introduced into the primary chamber to allow some of the organic material to be "burned" to produce carbon monoxide and energy, which drives a second

reaction that converts further organic material to hydrogen and additional carbon dioxide. Further reactions occur when the formed carbon monoxide and residual water from the organic material react to form methane and excess carbon dioxide. This third oxidation reaction occurs more abundantly at the end of the Thermostack and within the Secondary chamber.

The Hoskinson system is modular and scalable by design. The process to produce electricity from waste is comprised of four major steps: 1. Waste Receiving and Conditioning 2. Syngas Creation 3. Syngas Combustion 4. Power Production STEP 1: WASTE RECEIVING AND CONDITIONING The first step, waste receiving and conditioning, begins by accepting the raw waste stream into an enclosed facility. The Hoskinson system is capable of processing many different waste materials including MSW, green waste, construction & demolition debris, etc. Each of these different materials would have a different receiving and conditioning regimen. With this project, the facility will accept only MSW. With regard to MSW, the waste is tipped onto the receiving floor where bulky items (white goods, etc.), electronic waste, hazardous waste, and any materials that would cause issue with the operation of the Hoskinson system are removed for recycling or proper disposal. While not required, the balance of the material may be shredded and processed through a combination of automated recycling machinery and manual labor stationed along a series of conveyor belts. This part of the process removes much of the metals, glass, and other inert materials that don’t contribute to the thermal value introduced into the pyrolytic gasification system of the WtE plant. The prepared waste is moved by front-end loaders to a staging area inside the building where it is stored for up to 3-4 days for use by the WtE plant. Recycled material is then sorted and prepared for shipment to markets. STEP 2: SYNGAS CREATION The preconditioned waste (now called “feedstock”) is fed into the primary chamber of the gasification system. Front-end loaders continuously load hydraulically operated ram feeders that introduce the waste into the main primary Pyrolytic Gasification chamber. The waste is gasified in the primary chamber into a synthetic gas or “syngas” that contains a highly combustible mixture of primarily CO, H2 and other hydrocarbons. The feedstock is pyrolytically transformed in the primary chamber until it is converted into syngas. The primary chamber operates at a temperature of nearly 900°F in an oxygen-starved or substoichiometic environment that

minimizes combustion of the syngas at this point in the process. At this stage, the carbon conversion takes place and the resulting ash is discharged while the syngas proceeds to the next step. At the end of the gasification process, a small amount of vitrified and inert ash drops into a specially designed water-filled auger system below the primary chamber, which cools the ash and delivers it to storage and loadout for final disposition. The sand-like inert ash is safe and is suitable for use as landfill cover or potentially as an aggregate in embankments or asphalt products. This ash represents approximately 5% by volume, and typically resembles a light brown, sand like quality. STEP 3: SYNGAS OXIDATION The third stage of the process entails the oxidation of the syngas. The syngas moves from the top of the primary chamber through a patented thermo-stack into the secondary chamber where a regulated amount of air is added to the syngas flow. While the syngas could be cleaned at this point and introduced into conventional combustion engines, the syngas is combusted in the secondary chamber more efficiently where temperatures may approach 2,300°F. This is where additional thermal oxidation reactions occur, now with trace amounts of super heated steam present. This is an extremely exothermic reaction that generates a tremendous amount of heat, which is captured by a Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG). During gasification of the MSW in the primary chamber, organic compounds become gasified in the absence of oxygen. Once gasified, these compounds become VOCs and are completely oxidized in the secondary chamber. This is where the balance of thermal oxidation reactions occur, now with trace amounts of super heated steam present in the waste. This is an extremely exothermic reaction that generates a tremendous amount of heat, which is then capture by a Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG). The HRSG uses heat from the oxidation process in the Secondary Chamber to generate super-heated steam. The exhaust gases then move through the Air Pollution Control Train to remove acid gases, heavy metals, particulates, and any remaining nitrous oxides to regulated levels. STEP 4: POWER PRODUCTION The resultant steam produced is utilized in the steam turbine based power block to generate power. The superheated air is introduced into the HRSG, where steam is created at a moderate pressure. That steam is regulated and introduced into the turbine/generator set that spins and creates the electric current. The exhaust steam is condensed and reintroduced into the HRSG for reheating. The gasifier/oxidation unit is also air-cooled which substantially reduces the amount of water needed by the Facility to operate.

Secondary chamber positioned above the primary chamber

The steam turbine generator uses superheated steam to create the electric current which is sent to the grid.

The entire Facility operates 24-7 with minimal downtime for maintenance. The duty cycle is continuous with 2 days per month scheduled downtime. The time to bring the plant down from temperature is approximately an hour and the time to get to temperature from a black start is approximately 4 hours, which dramatically reduces the amount of fossil fuel needed for general operations. This is one of the factors of maintaining an online capacity factor of up to 93% using little to no fossil fuel. The exhaust gas from the HRSG then enters the Air Quality Control system. This generally consists of a powdered activated carbon (PAC) mercury control system, a lime-based acid gas removal system, a bag house, an induced draft (“ID”) fan, followed by a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system and integrated stack. The APC system is designed to remove mercury, acid gases, particulate matter, NOX, and any trace dioxin/furan compounds that may have formed. Most of the acid gas present is in the form HCl. A full capacity bypass stack is provided around the entire air pollution control system, including the ID fan. This permits emergency shutdown of the plant in the event of a total power failure, or a serious malfunction. At the end of the gasification process in the primary chamber, a small amount of vitrified and inert ash drops into a specially designed water-filled ash removal system below the primary chamber, which cools the ash and delivers it to a storage area pending final disposition. The sand-like ash is safe and is suitable for use as landfill cover or potentially as an aggregate in embankments or asphalt products. The entire system uses programmable logic controllers (PLC), which automatically regulates and adjusts each component as needed. The system is also equipped with monitors and alarms for all system and component level operational controls.

4.3. Comparing Thermal Treatments. Incineration, pyrolysis, gasification, and oxidation form a continuum of thermal treatments where variation in heat and oxygen determines how the waste is broken down to constituent molecules. Whereas incineration is direct oxidative combustion of waste using excess air or oxygen, thermo-chemical conversion systems such as combined pyrolysis and gasification occur with very low levels of oxygen. Thus incineration results in the formation of oxygen containing unused bi-products (oxides) such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrous oxides, and in some cases, dioxins. Because our pyrolytic gasification thermo-chemical processes are conducted in a well–proven oxygen-starved environment, they form far fewer unused oxides which in turn gives us a

Simple and proven emission control systems meet or exceed all applicable environmental standards

much greater opportunity to control the chemistry in the gas formation and in subsequent steps to combust the syngas and generate electric power.
