How is it recycled?

Heating: Process steam from the boilers goes into companies in the surrounding area of our offtake partner. Most of the remaining steam goes to turbines to generate electricity. The steam needed for district heat is drawn-off and used to heat the cool water piped in from the local area. The hot water is then piped back to heat homes connected to the district heat system. 

​

Electricity: The steam created during waste incineration is collected in a steam turbine. This turbine then generates energy that a generator converts into electricity which in turn supplies electricity to the local network from where energy suppliers takes it to supply power the local community.
