Biowaste is defined as “any waste that is capable of undergoing anaerobic or aerobic decomposition”. The Landfill Directive (1999/31/EEC) defines targets to divert biodegradable waste away from landfill over the next 15 years. These targets will be achieved through biowaste management, which is the process that treats biodegradable domestic, agricultural and industrial biological non-hazardous wastes. A typical biowaste treatment facility consists of aerobic or anaerobic treatment technology or a combination of these systems.
Our knowledge of biowaste management and treatment derives from the experience gained as one of Ireland’s leading solid municipal waste and sludge treatment consultants. We employ scientists and engineers who are expert in an array of engineering and environmental disciplines. This breadth of expertise enables us to offer our clients a complete service for the provision of biological waste treatment facilities. We offer a comprehensive service to developers of biowaste treatment facilities including pilot operations.
