The Magdeburg-Rothensee waste-to-energy plant is located in Magdeburg, the capital of Saxony-Anhalt, in the Rothensee district .
In June 2005, the power plant with two incineration lines was opened in the Rothensee industrial area directly at Magdeburg harbor and near the A 2 . After an expansion to four lines in September 2006, a total of around 250 million euros flowed into the project.
Every year over 650,000 tons of residual waste are processed in the plant. The two garbage bunkers each have a volume of 12,000 m³, each with six tipping points and a total of four overhead cranes. The 4- pass natural circulation boilers each have a heating surface of 7,130 m² and generate a superheated steam volume of 77.7 t / h each. The two extraction condensation turbines each have a gross output of 33.6 MW . 370 GWh of electrical energy and 350 GWh of thermal energy are available annually to supply over 44,000 households.
The system also has a flue gas cleaning system that reduces the emission of pollutants such as dioxins and furans .
