Utilisation of Biofuel Consuming Energy Plants' Ash Material Flows in Eastern Finland
More than half of this is received from carbon combustion (554 000 tonnes), and the rest (362 000 tonnes) from the combustion of wood and peat. The ash volume received from wood and peat combustion has almost doubled over the past 10 years, and is expected to rise as a result of the increasing futur...

More than half of this is received from carbon combustion (554 000 tonnes), and the rest (362 000 tonnes) from the combustion of wood and peat. The ash volume received from wood and peat combustion has almost doubled over the past 10 years, and is expected to rise as a result of the increasing future use of biofuels. The objective of this study was to clarify the ash volumes produced by biofuel consuming energy plants located in 54 municipalities in the area of eastern Finland (the provinces of South Savo, North Savo and North Karelia, 570 000 inhabitants), and to establish their current state of utilisation in accordance with the statutory treatment regulations.
