Swedish waste-based power plant switches to biodiesel

December 16, 2019 |

In Sweden, in an effort to reduce climate-impacting emissions, the Swedish waste power plant Renova in the district Sävenäs, upgrades its eight start-up and support burners to be able to operate with biofuel instead of fossil oil. Thanks to this adaptation, fossil emissions are reduced by approximately 960 tonnes of CO2 annually. The task of updating the existing combustible oil system for operation with RME oil was performed by PetroBio. Since RME is more aggressive than fossil oil, several different parts need to be replaced and the burners adapted.
