TURNING WASTE INTO ENERGY
image
FIGURE 12.24 Klemetsrud is one of two waste-to-energy power plants in Oslo, Norway, that, combined, have the capacity to process 410,000 metric tons of solid waste per year. Municipal solid waste generated locally and transported to Norway from other European locations provides enough fuel for the two plants to generate sufficient electricity and heat to meet the energy needs of 84,000 homes.
