Description
Construction and operation of a medium-sized CHP (Combined Heat and Power) municipal waste incineration plant consisting of one incineration line with a treatment capacity of 24t/h and an energy output capacity of 46 MWth and 16.5 MWe.
Objectives
The project is part of a communal waste management plan to increase CHP waste incineration capacity in order to meet expected waste production levels. Implementation of the project should improve waste management and treatment facilities in Denmark by avoiding the use of landfill for untreated waste; it will also reduce levels of atmospheric pollution.
