The management of the public opinion about the incineration plant

2nd strategic environmental planning (SUP) 2007

Main questions:

• Are new treatement plants neccesary

• How to optimise separate collection of metals and HHH waste

• Management of capacities (Redundant capacities neccesary?)

• How to optimise the treatement of incineration residuals

The management of the public opinion about the incineration plant

2nd strategic environmental planning (SUP) 2007

Main results

• HHH waste collection cars on mobile coll. points in 2 districts

• New collection containers for metal collection

• Optimal treatement of incineration residuals by additional separation of non ferrous metals

• Baling plant for intermediate storage of RDF as redundant capacity of WMI plants

• Find a new location for a landfill site
