How Much Energy Could You Generate?
This tool calculates a variety metrics concerning VLS’s Waste-to-Energy (WTE) operations and engineered fuel production. Based on user data that is entered into the tool regarding waste weight, the tool calculates the energy content of the waste, Natural Gas and coal energy and emissions equivalents, and landfill emissions that are avoided.

Your Inputs
Enter an amount of solid waste in the field below to calculate the benefits of WTE disposal.
Results
Waste To Energy
If processed at a VLS Site your waste could create 0 MMBTU of energyWhich is the equivalent of 0 kWh of energy
or 0 CCF of NG therefore 0 MT CO2e
or 0 short tons of coal therefore 0 MT CO2e
or 0 MT CO2e if landfilled.
Engineered Fuel
If processed at a VLS Site your secondary material could create 0 MMBTU of energyWhich is the equivalent of 0 kWh of energy
or 0 CCF of Natural Gas therefore 0 MT CO2e
or 0 short tons of coal therefore 0 MT CO2e.
*Resulting values are based on average waste profiles and industry standard variables. Data can only be used as a guide. Your actual carbon emissions and tonnages can vary from the data presented here. For more information, please reach out to info@vlses.com.
