WASTE-TO-ENERGY

Our society makes lots of nice things. The waste that we create, though, is not as nice. We are not able to change that. What we can do is think productively and look at waste as a raw material.

EVEN THE THINGS THAT CANNOT BE RECYCLED CAN BE MADE RENEWED: AS ENERGY.

Incineration technology transforms waste systematically into valuable foundations for humanity and the economy.

Composting & digestion

Sooner or later, every product becomes waste. However, the materials in it will still remain – and are much more useful than it looks at first glance. These recyclable materials can be extracted from things that are thrown away.

SYSTEMATICALLY WE TURN ORGANIC WASTE INTO ENERGY AND BIOMASS.

From the sorting technology at the start to the practical and useful raw material at the end, the way it is processed is tailor-made for each kind of waste.

WE SEE INDUSTRIAL WASTE AS A SOURCE OF ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY RAW MATERIALS AND ENERGY.

Landfill

The world became a little bit better in 1970 – at least in the Cologne region. It was the year when countless dumps around the city were finally consolidated into one large landfill at the former Vereinigte Ville opencast lignite mining.

THIS ALLOWED FOR COMPLETE CONTROL OVER WASTE THAT WAS NOT SUITABLE FOR RECYCLING OR INCINERATING.

Thanks to a 30-metre-thick, waterproof layer of clay and leachate treatment, we are firmly in charge of the water levels at the landfill site. Using a cogeneration system, we produce climateneutral heat and energy from the landfill gas.
