The Isle of Wight gasification facility is a municipal waste treatment plant in southern England.〔(Construction start for Isle of Wight incineration plant ), www.letsrecycle.com, retrieved 18.09.07〕 It entered the commissioning phase in autumn 2008.〔(Island Gasification Plant Powers Up ), Article in ''Island Pulse'', 12 November 2008〕 The facility has been funded as part of Defra's New Technologies Demonstrator Programme and is one of the first and only facilities in the United Kingdom to be classed as a gasification system employed for the combustion of refuse derived fuel originating from municipal waste. The plant is operated by Waste Gas Technology UK Ltd, part of the (ENER·G group ), and utilises the Energos technology; Energos is also part of the ENER·G group. The Energos system was retrofitted into a small conventional incinerator plant〔(Green Lane Eco Park Community Meeting 25 January 2010 )〕 and will combust an estimated 30,000 tonnes of refuse-derived fuel per year. The retrofit cost £10 million to commission, £2.7 million of which was funded by DEFRA.〔(Energy from Waste: Set to attract Investment ) from the Cleantech Investor website〕 The plant is sited at Forest Road, Newport. ==Temporary suspension of operation, 2010== Due to increased dioxin emission levels detected in March 2010 exceeding 8 times the legal limit,〔(Energos Isle of Wight Plant Fails Dioxin and Furan Emissions Tests ) from the ''Say no to Green Lane Incinerator'' web site〕 operation was temporarily suspended spring 2010. The flue gas cleaning system of the old incinerator was reused in the retrofit, and ENER·G reported this system to be the cause of the problem.〔(Energy Plant Suspends Waste Processing ), Article in ''Island Pulse'', 31 May 2010〕 Following modifications and several startup attempts, it has been operating again since October 2010.〔(Isle of Wight gasification plant achieves compliance ), letsrecycle.com, April 1., 2011〕 In June 2011, the Isle of Wight council decided to make radical efforts to lessen its dependence on the gasification facility with reference to its history of limited reliability.〔(Isle of Wight seeks to reduce use of 'unreliable' gasifier ), letsrecycle.com, June 22., 2011〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Isle of Wight gasification facility」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
