and you didnt read the article apparently because it clearly states the tissue is used in a "waste-to-energy" facillity.

Really?
We gonna do this?
Okay:
Bio Mass = Stew ( the thing being "incinerated)
Flame = Flame (the heat source from which the energy to incinerate originates. The GAS purchased and burned to incinerate the thing)
Heated water = Cig ( the additional use of the heat energy added and needed to incinerate)
Your turn

stew is your final product, along with electrocity.
tissue is your gas that continually is added to keep burning.
ETA: other steps

"The power facility burns waste in two massive boilers at a temperature of about 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit. The heat transfers into water tubes, which creates steam to drive turbines. The turbines generate electricity."
The bio waste contributes to the heat, therefore helping provide electricity.
i realize what you are saying "hey, we have these furnaces going over here, we can burn that stuff for you, too, its gotta be burned somewhere" atleast i assume that is what you are saying

WRONG!!
That is the misconception. They are NOT "burning the tissue for energy". They are using energy to burn the tissue. They do NOT start the fire and keep adding tissue to keep it burning (like logs on a campfire).
The get a fire going, keep adding GAS to it to burn the tissue.
Think of the campfire...if you keep adding steak to the fire...does the fire keep burning? NO. You have to keep adding logs in order to be able to cook the steak.

Either way, I think we've found a solution to the homeless problem around Disney World.

the heat that is transferred into steam in those water tubes is most certainly a direct result from putting the tissue in the boiler.
technically they are "burning the tissue for energy(electricity)"

There isn't enough tissue going to that plant to support a constant burn on the boiler. The flame is burning with or without the tissue. Medical waste needs an incinerator and they offer their boiler.

the fact that oregon is having these dead babies shipped in is a topic in itself

i agree.
but it isnt just "hey you gotta flame going all the time, can we through this waste we have on top of it?"
it does get converted to energy.

County commissioners gave final approval Thursday to an order to stop an incinerator in Oregon from receiving medical waste until procedures are in place to ensure no fetal tissue is burned to generate power.
This just got more expensive

The nurses/techs have a fetus and they put it in a container seperate from the rest of the biohazardous waste which would normally go off to the incinerator.
Sure. That makes sense. Which is why the procedure they come up with will undoubtedly be 100 steps longer and more involved.

The fetus will be handled accordingly
Which is?

Done.
You skipped a step between these two sentences.
