==Summary== | ==Summary== | ||
An [[EfW]] facility based upon conventional combustion technology and considered an [[ERF]] based on its [[R1]] status. The Kirklees site has permitted operational capacity of 160,000 tonnes per annum, and is owned and operated by [[Suez]]. Delivery of waste is by road and the facility processes primarily residual [[Household Waste]] and some [[Commercial Waste]]. | |||
==History== | ==History== | ||
The Kirklees facility, in Huddersfield, was built primarily to service [[Kirklees Metropolitan Council]] under a 25 year [[PFI]] contract, signed in 1998 and due for completion in 2023 - but with the option to extend for five years to 2028 (and potentially operate to 2036)<ref>[https://www.kirklees.gov.uk/beta/planning-policy/pdf/supportingDocuments/mineralsWaste/Waste-Needs-Assessment-2.pdf Kirklees Waste Needs Assessment]</ref>. | |||

The plant is assumed to have been built by [[Lentjes]] (renamed [[Lurgi]] in 2006 and sold to [[A-Tec Industries AG]] in 2007) under a turnkey contract with a similar approach to [[Allington EfW]]. The facility commenced operation in 2002. | |||
The plant is assumed to be 1 line with a design capacity capable of 21.4 tonnes/hour equivalent to around 175,000 tonnes per annum. Electricity is generated via standard combustion technology, utiliziing fluidised bed technology ROWITEC, generating super-heated steam, and is configured to run on residual [[Household Waste]] and [[Commercial Waste]]). The technology is understood to be capable of operating in a range of [[CV]] of between 6.5 and 30.0 MJ/kg depending on configuration<ref>[https://mafiadoc.com/rowitec-fluidized-bed_5a2b2dad1723dd3d745e24de.html/ Lentjes Website]</ref>. | |||
