Summary

A Biomass EfW facility, Markley Group Biomass is located at Markley Group premises in Hardwicke, Gloucestershire, which generates 2.1MW from c. 2,300 tonnes of Wood Waste from its commercial business[1].

In 2012, Gloucester based Markley Group opened a £1.1m biomass facility which runs on waste wood generated by the subsidiary of Markley Group, Premiere Kitchens[1]. Each year Premiere Kitchens creates approximately 2,350 tonnes of waste wood in the form of extracted chipboard dust and residual off-cuts, which is used in the plant to generate all of the heating and hot water required for the company's site at Hardwicke[1].

Following the installation of the biomass facility, Markley Group were able to remove its mains gas supply and as a result the company reduces its carbon emissions by more than c.1,200 tonnes per year[1].

Plant

The plant was commissioned by UK-based Indusvent Limited who were instructed to design, supply and install a complete turnkey project which included a dust extraction and filtration system for production machinery, a sealed chipboard dust and chips transportation system, a 300m3 storage silo with hydraulic moving floor discharge, shredding of off-cuts and burning of the collected material to provide hot water and heating for both the office and factory heating[2]. The system features a 2.1 MW hot water boiler manufactured by Danish based Justsen Energiteknik A/S[1]. The burning of the Wood Waste in the boiler is controlled automatically to maximise efficiency with results monitored both on site and at the manufacturers premises in Denmark[1].

Annual Sustainability Tonnage Input/Fuel

The tonnage[3] received by the plant in the most recent Annual Sustainability Report and for the previous 3 years for Error: no local variable "asyear" has been set. was reported by Ofgem as below[4]:

Year Waste Wood (m3) Waste Wood (t) Straw Miscanthus Arboricultrual Waste Sawmill Residue Foresrty Residue Round Wood Short Rotation Coppice MBM Other Material

Waste Tonnage, By Origin

The table shows a list of the Waste for the Permit tbc4, that has arrived into sites as reported to the Regulator and then publicised in their reported statistics. The Data used is from the most recent returns. The total reported tonnage arriving at the site was: Expression error: Unexpected < operator.t.

Where this tonnage exceeds that reported in year of the corresponding annual report, this may be due to the following reasons:

  • Tonnage may have been received but not incinerated, i.e. the material is held pending incineration (the operator return to the EA reports as received whereas the annual report focuses on when the waste is incinerated.)
  • Material may have been received into the site but treated in some other way than incineration.
  • Material may have been received on the but transferred out of site for disposal/treatment at another site rather than incineration on the site.
EWC Code Origin of Waste Tonnes In


The tonnage received by the plant is a mixture of Wood Waste off-cuts from its kitchen construction business and is essentially 'internal' material that is not reported in the Annual Sustainability Report data.
