MACOGA Expansion Joints for Dunbar waste to energy plant in Scotland
MACOGA
has recently completed a project to supply a range of stainless steel
expansion joints for Dunbar Energy Recovery Facility in East Lothian,
Scotland.
A large Pressure Balanced unit DN2800 and Lateral and Hinged units DN3400 are being delivered to the site.
The Dunbar plant will be able to process up to 300,000 tons per annum and will be part of many measures to help the Scottish government meet an ambitious target of landfilling zero biodegradable municipal waste by 2021.
The site will generate 30MW of base-load renewable energy direct to the grid – the equivalent of 39 wind turbines – enough to continuously power 39,000 homes. What’s more the plant will offer up to 10MW of heat available for local use. Engineering is underway and the plant is scheduled to go online in the fourth quarter of 2017.
