Notes
Was to burn 750 tons/year of animal waste and trash with a gasification type of incinerator. Was scheduled to be online in December 2015.

Canceled in Sept 2015: "Zoo officials attributed the decision largely to a question of resources and money. They and prominent supporters acknowledged Friday that the system still faced a significant hurdle: getting the thing to work."
