Food Waste Reception

  • Trucks transporting food waste are weighted at the weighbridge before discharging it into enclosed tipping bays with a deodorisation system. A grab crane transfers the food waste into hoppers for mixing and pre-treatment.

Anaerobic Digestion

  • Make use of the microorganisms to convert the organic matter contained in the pre-treated food waste suspension into biogas, waste-to-energy.
