Energiakierrätyslaitokset
Energiakierrätyslaitokset, often translated as energy recovery plants or waste-to-energy facilities, are industrial installations designed to convert waste materials into usable energy. These facilities typically process non-recyclable waste that would otherwise be sent to landfills. The primary method employed is incineration, where waste is burned under controlled conditions to generate heat. This heat is then used to produce steam, which drives turbines connected to generators, thereby producing electricity.
The process involves several stages, beginning with the collection and sorting of waste to remove materials
The energy generated can be used to supply electricity to the grid or for district heating systems,
