incinerator

Beddington incinerator, which serves four south London councils, faces enforcement from the Environment Agency after exceeding air pollution limits on 916 occasions.

Some inert material, such as ash from incinerators and building rubble, will still be allowed at landfill sites.

Neighbors and grassroots groups in South L.A. put their muscle together, stood up to their own council member, and stopped the Lancer project, a closed-system incinerator to burn trash into energy near the Coliseum.

Gaba drew parallels with the memory holes in George Orwell’s “1984,” which are incinerator chutes that burn references to the past, allowing the government to rewrite history without leaving a trace of the deception.

He said that special arrangements have been made to ensure that fumes from the incinerator or the ash left after do not pollute the air and water.
