All refuse, which is collected by the refuse truck, is transported to the waste handling plant. The
intention is that the less waste the accommodators through, the less money should they pay. Black
plastic bags are transported to Borlänge’s and Falun’s shared biogas and composting plant. The red
bags with combustible waste are transported to the district heating plant in Borlänge. About 25% of
the energy production comes from combustible and industrial household waste that has been
separated at sources. The other bags with the waste for landfill deposit are transported to the landfill
site (Hedén, 2001)
