HELSINKI, Finland, Aug. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Metso Minerals will
supply a waste incineration plant to SCIP Swire SITA Waste Services Co. Ltd.
located in Shanghai, China. The plant will be started up in 2006 and will be

disclosed.
Metso Minerals' order comprises the design, equipment supply, and start-up

designed to process approximately 60,000 tons per year of a combination of
solid, liquid and gaseous wastes. The new facility will provide waste
processing services for the Shanghai area industry.
