Waste2energy

Renewable energy from waste

Waste2energy recovers organic waste and byproducts and converts them into renewable energy. Its work focuses on the organic fraction of municipal solid waste, as well as industrial and agricultural waste, used as feedstock in anaerobic biological processes.

The process can produce electricity, biogas, biomethane, or synthetic gas, which can be injected into the gas grid or stored. The company also considers compost production as a byproduct of treatment.

Areas of work

• Waste treatment plants
• Management of municipal solid, organic, and industrial waste
• Biogas and biomethane production
• Energy recovery from non-recyclable waste
• Compost production through anaerobic digestion
• Replacing fossil fuels with biomethane in transportation
