Description
Construction of a new CHP incineration line in replacement of existing older heat-only producing waste incineration facilities on the company site near Glostrup (Copenhagen suburb). The project comprises the construction of a new furnace, a new steam boiler, a turbine generator as well as the fitting of a flue gas treatment equipment.
Objectives
The project (new “Anlaeg-6”) will replace part of existing older heat producing waste incineration facilities in order to meet new national legislation requiring the cogeneration of heat and power. The project enhances the energy recovery from the combustion process of the waste by producing both, electricity for sale to the public grid, and heat for district heating.

Environmental aspects
The project contributes to reducing atmospheric pollution in that the additional electricity generated from the waste displaces fossil fuel fired electricity production. The incineration line will be equipped with a flue gas cleaning system, keeping emissions below national and EU levels. The project is part of a larger municipal incineration complex in which it constitutes a replacement of existing lines.
