Valmet to supply flue gas condensing process to Vantaa Energy in Finland
The flue gas condensing equipment recovers heat from the incineration process. The waste heat produced will be utilized in the heating of properties in Vantaa. The waste heat obtained from the plant will reduce the need for using natural gas and fossil fuels and supports the transition to clean energy production.
"The high-temperature incineration plant treating non-recyclable hazardous waste continues Vantaa Energy's investment programme to phase out the use of fossil fuels in the company's energy production as soon as possible and to continue towards carbon-negative energy production in 2030. Energy utilization of waste and carbon capture and processing into new products play a key role in our strategy. For Vantaa Energy the high safety level of the technology and design solutions used, implementation of the investment projects according to stringent targets and the high degree of availability of the plants are extremely important. We are delighted to have Valmet as our partner in the high temperature incineration plant project," says Vantaa Energy's CEO .
