Energy from waste (EfW)

The Lincolnshire EfW plant was fully operational from March 2014 and treats up to 190,000 tonnes of residual waste, diverting it from landfill and exporting 105,000 MWh of electricity in the process.

The waste arrives on 10 and 25 tonne collection vehicles from the local Lincoln area and 5 waste transfer stations based at Boston, Gainsborough, Grantham, Louth and Sleaford.

The facility uses proven robust technology and is the third EfW in the FCC Environment UK portfolio. It includes state of the art gas cleaning and emissions monitoring systems.
