Landfill, NFFO5: The degradation of the non hazardous waste produces landfill gas as a bi-product. This is collected and processed through 2 (third engine in development) engines that burn the gas to generate non fossil fuel energy providing sufficient electricity for several thousand houses.
Wood collected from both commercial and household origins are transported to Chapel Farm for reprocessing. This involves chipping the wood and screening out various fines and oversize elements. The wood can then either be used in fuel for power stations, manufacture of chip board or as engineering materials at the landfill site.
Our aim is to continually improve this resource. If you can provide additional information such as relevant links, perhaps the status of the project, please use the form below.
