Thermal Waste Treatment Plant Spittelau - New Construction to the Existing Plant -

The thermal waste treatment plant Spittelau is steeped in history and tradition. It is one out of four municipal solid waste incinerations plants in Vienna. The plant was built from 1969 until 1971 for the purpose of thermal utilization of municipal waste and household-type commercial waste as well as energy supply of the new General Hospital Vienna two kilometres away via district heating. The plant was equipped with two hot-water boilers to ensure heat supply at all times. Although it is located in the town-centre of Vienna its architectural structure did not differ significantly from the traditional plant structure.

After only six years the plant had utilized one million tonnes of waste. Throughout the following years, pipeline construction over long distances intensified and by 1985 a closed circular pipeline for heating supply had been built around the entire inner city district of Vienna. Among many others, the parliament, the Vienna Burgtheater and the Vienna City Hall, were the first customers of the company Heizbetriebe Wien. The number of supplied buildings increased steadily and the technical plant was further enlarged and adapted to the state-of-the-art. Until today, the pipeline system has been provided with hot water supply from waste incineration plants such as WIP Flötzersteig, hazardous waste incineration plant Simmeringer Haide, WIP Pfaffenau, other decentralised plants - Arsenal, Kagran, Leopoldau, Inzersdorf - as well as the cogeneration of the larger power plant Simmering and power plant Donaustadt units.

Maßnahmen der Staaten, die dem Klimaschutz unzureichend gerecht geworden sein sollen, sind in der Vergangenheit in Verfahren vor Menschenrechtsorganen der UN geltend gemacht worden.1 Mit der Initiative des Inselstaates Vanuatu vom6.12.2022wird erstmals der Versuch gemacht, den Schutz der Menschenrechte im Klimawandel mit Hilfe des IGH weltweit voranzubringen.
