“…2 The Boundary Commission was given huge weight by pro-Treaty figures while to some others who had pursued a moderate path through the War of Independence period like Stephen Gwynn, initial partition was now even favoured as a stage to later reconciliation and unity. 3 Civil War broke out on 28 June when Griffith's and Collins's Provisional Government attacked the anti-Treaty forces holding the Four Courts under the command of Rory O'Connor. The ensuing conflict would evoke much bitterness and division; the individuals lost were also particularly noteworthy on both sides.…”

“…Foster's famous description of a party of 'Trollopian fixers, political journalists, respectable ex-Fenians and closet imperialists', the Irish Party could be seen to represent many political trends within one broad movement while at other times, act as a single issue group campaigning for home rule. 3 The decline of this party and the lingering influence it maintained in Irish politics for decades to come cannot be explained without recourse to the party's apogee. While the final years of the party from the third home rule crisis in 1912 will be discussed in more depth in Chapter One, reflection on the legacy of any major political party necessarily involves some consideration of the context from which it emerged and the elements of its composition.…”

This book provides the first detailed analysis of the influence of former Irish Parliamentary Party members and methods in independent Ireland and the place of the party’s leaders in public memory. Previous studies of the party have concluded with its dramatic fall in 1918 and shown little interest in the fate of its members thereafter. This study uses biographical data to provide the first statistical analysis of the Irish Party heritage of each political party in the independent Irish state established in 1922. Utilising a wealth of archival material, contemporary and critical writings, it asks how former Irish Party followers reacted to the changed circumstances of independent Ireland. One chapter undertakes a case study of the Irish National League, arguing that this organisation founded and led by former MPs effectively constituted a ‘legacy party’. Analysis of party politics is complemented by scrutiny of the practice of commemoration to ask how the Irish Party was remembered in a state founded on the sacrifice of the Easter Rising. This study therefore highlights significant features in the evolution of the party’s public memory and sheds new light on how figures such as Charles Stewart Parnell, John Redmond and Michael Davitt were remembered.

Waste to Energy – Energy Recovery of Green Bin Waste: Incineration/Biogas Comparison

This study presents how to determine marginal incinerator energy efficiencies. This concept should be applied in assessments of the treatment of specific waste streams to create a level playing field when comparing different technologies, for instance in life-cycle assessments. The marginal efficiencies depend on the technical level, the surrounding energy system, and the waste type/heating value. The concept of marginal efficiency is in this article applied to the treatment of green bin waste. The thermal treatment options considered are incineration and anaerobic digestion with biogas combustion in a reciprocating gas engine. The comparison is made only with regard to energy yield. The comparison is carried out for three different types of energy systems: power producing, combined heat and power, and combined heat and power with flue gas condensation. For a power-only energy system, the electrical efficiency of anaerobic digestion is found to be comparable to incineration. However, for an energy system with district heating as an option, the energy recovery of incineration is much higher than biogas. Furthermore, if the waste heat recovery technology flue gas condensation is used, the total efficiency of incineration is almost twice as high as the biogas technology, with the same boundary conditions applied. Although this study produces specific figures of energy recovery yields for a number of different scenarios for incineration and biogas production, the aim of the study is not a technology comparison as such. A proper technology comparison, including life-cycle assessments, should deal with many other issues than just energy recovery, for instance, other environmental factors, initial cost, operating and maintenance costs, and commercial aspects. However, this study does show that when undertaking such technology assessments, it is crucial to the results that: • Proper and relevant boundary conditions are applied: if district heating is possible, this changes results dramatically. Optimally, a specific site should form the basis for a comparison. • Energy recovery efficiencies must be linked to the actual waste steam considered. For green bin waste, this study has shown that margin efficiencies of up to 125 % can be achieved. This is much higher than efficiencies reported in the literature (95 %) [1•, 2•]. Therefore, one main conclusion is that efficiencies used for comparisons of technology must be wastetype (and calorific-value) specific to obtain reliable results in the comparisons.
