AEB’s Waste Fired Power Plant (WFPP) is a world leader in producing energy and products from waste. No other facility can match AEB’s environmental credentials. The innovative plant has set a new global standard for electrical efficiency and maximising products from waste. Every day, 600 trucks and a number of freight trains deliver 4,400,000 kilos of waste to the plant.
Products from flue-gas
Cleaning the flue-gas from the incinerator allows AEB to win back valuable raw materials. The sulphur that is recovered is used to produce gypsum board for the building industry.
Recovery from bottom ash
Not all of the waste is incinerated. The bottom ash that remains consists of cinders, granulates, glass and metals. To maximise the amount of material collected from this, AEB and TU Delft have built a pilot plant for recovering more precious metals. The leftover residue can then be used to produce granulate and artificial sand for use in the construction industry. To improve even further, AEB is working hard to develop an installation that can convert the last traces of bottom ash into even higher quality materials, such as raw materials suitable for the manufacture of concrete and asphalt.
