[QUOTE="Cab-over Pete, post: 8083731, member: 416"] There has been a waste to energy incinerator in Coventry for donkey’s years. Household bin lorries queue by the dozen to get in off the road, an occasional 8 wheeler trundles out with a bit of waste for landfill. Works a treat. Then we have Drax Power Station that runs on wood chip produced in America. The whole bloody place is there because it was built on the land under which coal was dug. There are three sites each a stones throw from the other for the same reason. Is it not possible to dig that coal, millions and millions of tonnes of which are still there, right under their feet, and then catch and purify the smoke? Then put the filtered crap back underground? There was a Homefire Smokeless fuel plant at Coventry but that closed down 20+ years ago. If smokeless fuel could be made then , why not now? The Warwickshire Thick seam of coal is still there waiting to be used, and it will be one day. Millions of tonnes of it. And we get gas and woodchip from thousands of miles away. Fecking nonsense.
