The plant is a single line, fluidised bed Gasification plant by [[Outotec]], generating super-heated steam. | |||

The plant commenced construction in January 2016 under a turnkey [[EPC]] contract with [[MW High Tech Projects UK]]. As a result of ongoing delays, the developer terminated the contract and contracted [[Black and Veatch]] to complete the works, which are now understood to be in advanced commissioning<ref>[https://www.letsrecycle.com/news/latest-news/hull-gasification-project-appoints-new-contractor/ Letsrecycle Article]</ref>. | |||

The plant is designed to run on [[RDF]] manufactured from residual [[Household Waste]] and [[Commercial Waste]], with some preparation on site.
