The installation is a single line [[High Temperature and Clinical Waste Incineration|incinerator]] designed to have the capacity to burn 0.8 tonnes of [[Waste|waste]] an hour (approximately 8000 tonnes a year). [[Clinical Waste]], including [[Hazardous Waste]], is brought to a storage area at the [[High Temperature and Clinical Waste Incineration|incinerator]] from local hospitals and other sources such as family practitioners and dental surgeries. The [[Clinical Waste|clinical waste]] arrives in wheeled bins, loose loads and palletised loads, which are emptied onto a moving floor system and charged into the [[High Temperature and Clinical Waste Incineration|incinerator]] by means of a bin lift and hydraulic ram. The [[Combustion|combustions]] gases are cooled in a waste heat recovery boiler.
 
The installation covers the whole of the [[High Temperature and Clinical Waste Incineration|incineration]] plant and site: this includes [[Waste|waste reception]], [[Waste|waste storage]], fuel and supply facilities, the boiler, facilities for the treatment of [[Flue Gas|exhaust gases]], [[Treatment|treatment]] and storage of residues and waste water, the [[wikipedia:Chimney|stack]], devices and systems for controlling [[Incineration|incineration]] operations and the recording and monitoring of [[Incineration|incineration]] conditions.
