testing

This waste to energy project provides a method of recycling otherwise non-recyclable materials such as food/organic waste, mixed plastics and plastics whose recycling is not feasible.
The energy obtained will displace coal usage until such time as coal usage is phased out. The project could be reassessed when coal is no longer used for energy production.
The project displaces material otherwise sent to landfill where it would generate methane. Although methane is collected at Woodlawn current facility, direct combustion is far more efficient and complete.
Great care must be taken to ensure the completeness of combusion and monitoring of effluent. Fly ash/dust collection and disposal needs to be effective.
Recovery of ferrous metals (and potentially other metals) from the remaining ash is also valuable and displaces resources that would otherwise be used to mine/refine new metal.

I object to the proposed Woodlawn incinerator on the basis that if it is not safe for a site in Sydney, why is it safe for Woodlawn.
