The article analyses the politico-economic processes at the heart of the realisation of the Gerbido waste incinerator in Turin, by mobilising the theoretical framework of urban political ecology. The analysis describes the relations between economic flows, the capital fix and the production of urban natures, emphasising the strict relations between capitalist logics and the production of urban spaces.
