USA: New Waste-to-Energy Plant to Be Built
The Miami-Dade County in Florida needs a new waste-to-energy plant and the AtkinsRéalis Group Inc. will advise the county on its plans for a new facility.
As reported in August, the Canada-based company with offices worldwide has been awarded a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) to provide engineering services to the Miami-Dade Department of Solid Waste Management for its new state-of-the-art plant. “Capable of processing 4,000 tons of waste per day, the project will create the largest WTE facility in the United States”, the information said. Under the ten-year contract worth 65 million US-Dollar, AtkinsRéalis will provide design criteria, consulting, advisory and environmental services before construction. The company would also supervise construction and administer quality control support to Miami-Dade County. As underlined, AtkinsRéalis has delivered 23 alternative fuel projects in North America since 1982, including three in Florida.
