The incineration process carried out by the plant handles mainly [[Household Waste]] and [[Commercial Waste]] that has been processed into [[RDF]] on site prior to combustion in two 17 MW thermal input [[Fluidised Bed| bubbling fluidised bed]] boilers firing at 7.5 tonnes/hour (which at the time were the first in operation in the UK). The plant generates 10.5 MWe of electrical output with 8.3 MWe exported to the National Grid. Modifications to the plant since acquisition by [[MVV Umwelt]] in November 2018 led to an agreement in December 2020 to extend the operation of these two lines for 10 years (i.e. December 2030)<ref>https://www2.gov.scot/resource/doc/1069/0005230.pdf</ref><ref>Annual Report 2022</ref>.

The new facility is a moving [[grate]] technology and is located to south of the existing [[Fluidised Bed|fluidised bed]] plant. it has the capacity to supply 20 tonnes of steam due to be used as a source of heat for the near by Michelin tyre production factory (should it still be in operation once the facility becomes fully operational). The plant was fully commissioned and has been regulated since 1st January 2022 under the same permit as the existing plant. The building has been designed to measure 134m in length and 38m in height, with an exhaust stack measuring 90m.<ref>[https://www.letsrecycle.com/news/latest-news/mvv-secures-permission-for-dundee-erf Let's Recycle]/</ref>.
