The Allerton facility was built primarily to service a 25 year [[PPP]] contract signed in 2010 between and [[North Yorkshire County Council]] and [[York City Council]], for 230,000 tones per annum of the anticipated total throughput of up to 320,000 tonnes per annum. The plant has an integrated [[Mechanical Biological Treatment]] process with mechanical sorting of organics for subsequent processing in [[Anaerobic Digestion]] and then [[EfW]] of the [[RDF]] material produced<ref>[https://www.letsrecycle.com/news/latest-news/ameys-allerton-efw-declared-fully-operational/ Letsrecycle Article]</ref>. | |||
