Why Sludge Incineration?

  1. Save on non-renewables
  2. Meet Renewable Energy portfolio Requirements
  3. Limited space for Landfills
  4. Developing sustainable Grid systems
  5. Use of Sludge in Agriculture has limits

The page has 2 maps relating Energy supply for district heating from power plants to energy supply potential from sludge incineration. Using summer and winter energy readings, District Heating energy supply was calculated. Using Data from Denmark wastewater incineration, possible energy from treatment plants in NYC was calculated. Clicking on the different icons on the map would reveal the energy saved if incineration was implemented.
