==Summary==
An integrated [[EfW]] facility with other treatment technologies, with the [[EfW]] based upon [[Gasification]] technology and not yet considered an [[ERF]] based on not having [[R1]] status. The [[EfW]] element of the facility at Milton Keynes has permitted operational capacity of 90,000 tonnes per annum, operated by [[AmeyCespa]] and owned by [[Milton Keynes Council]]. 

==History==
The Milton Keynes facility was built as an integrated solution primarily to service a 15 year [[PPP]] contract with [[Milton Keynes Council]] signed in June 2013 to process around 130,000 tonnes per annum via the different technologies on site . The facility diverts around 140,000 tonnes per annum from [[Landfill]] via a combination of [[Mechanical Biological Treatment]] including [[Anaerobic Digestion]], with the [[RDF]] output sent to the [[ATT]]/[[Gasification]] facility with a capacity listed of 90,000 tonnes per annum and power output of 6MWe <ref>[https://www.letsrecycle.com/news/latest-news/amey-overcomes-teething-problems-in-milton-keynes/ Letsrecycle Article]</ref>.

==Plant==
A Design, Build, Operate contract with [[AmeyCespa]] (with [[Volker Fitzpatrick]] as Amey's civil engineering partner) which started in Spring 2014 and which was commissioned in summer 2018. The [[Gasification]] technology was delivered by [[Energos]], and [[AmeyCespa]] had to step in when the technology company went into liquidation in 2016 (which also impacted upon the [[Glasgow Renewable Energy and Recycling Centre (ACT)|Glasgow]] and [[Sinfin Lane]] facilities).
