Our solutions for waste streams to energy
Veolia creates cost-effective, environmentally sustainable solutions that convert waste streams to energy through methods such as anaerobic digestion and biogas, landfill gas, biomass, and fuel blending.
Veolia utilizes biogas from the anaerobic digestion of organic waste to fuel cogeneration facilities. By converting biosolids, fats, oils and grease into electricity and heat, Veolia can help systems increase resource productivity while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The methane produced in landfills can be recycled and used for the production of electricity and thermal energy, effectively diverting waste from landfills and eliminating tons of greenhouse gas emissions. Veolia offers expertise in developing and managing these solutions for a broad range of clients.
Veolia operates and maintains biomass facilities where waste streams, such as poultry litter and wood waste, are used as fuel to generate renewable, cost effective energy.
Veolia recovers the thermal energy of non-recyclable waste through combustion, generating energy that can be used in industrial processes.
Veolia is uniquely positioned to service industry, government and commercial entities in improving performance, managing water, waste and energy.
