The other day at the waste incineration plant
From waste is made electricity for 250,000 individuals And this is the highlight. The heat produced during combustion is used. On the one hand, to heat the nearby Ford plant. But this is just a nice side effect. The majority of the heat is converted into electricity by generators. And even that the power consumption of 250,000 individuals can be fulfilled. The waste incineration plant Cologne is hence essentially a power plant also provides a quarter of the town of Cologne with electricity. That sounds amazing. And as you might find the notion it is not too bad when a lot of garbage is produced — as it is used so nicely… After combustion bottom ash, hot exhaust gas and residue remain. These chemicals are largely used again useful: The ash is chilled with water and stored in an ash bunker before it is processed at a bottom ash treatment…
England’s Garbage Producing Danish heat
“They save on having to bury the waste and we save on the consumption of natural gas,” he explained. READ MORE: Denmark pays for electricity Environmental protection agency Miljøstyrelsen explained that last year up to 200,000 tonnes of non-hazardous waste from England was incinerated in Denmark — almost six percentage of the total volume of combustible material used. by: http://cphpost.dk/news/englands-trash-generating-danish-heat.11398.html Incinerators in Aalborg and Hjørring are also burning British trash. “The heating we produce using the waste is cheaper than that which we could create with gas,” explained AVØ mind Tore Vedelsdal. “And the British are curious since they lack incinerators and pay heavy taxes on landfills.” Good for the environment Power in Denmark is increasingly being produced in plants burning waste imported from England. The custom is being called an economic and ecological blessing on either side of the equation. The AVØ incinerator in Frederikshavn creates heating and electricity…
