The project reviewed sewage sludge incinerator (SSI) design standards and plant performance with respect to Nox and particulate emissions. The report concludes that achievement of Nox standards required by the proposed EU standard will be problematic for some UK SSIs. The project reviewed SSI ash quality and reuse potential. The report concludes that the ash from particulate removal should not be considered special waste. The report concludes that whilst ash recycling is feasible the market is limited and that financial incentives may be required.
