Industrial firms are increasingly seeking innovative means to decrease waste streams, to generate savings in production and recovery processes, and to add efficiencies through the creation of useable energy and biofuels.

ZWES is well positioned to serve these needs. Our central focus in so doing is to bring about sustainable cost reductions and revenues.

Typical services include:

• waste compaction and liquid extraction
• hazardous waste to energy
• ash recovery
• dry biomass waste to energy (gasification)
• wet biomass waste to energy (anaerobic digestion)

Governments are under increasing pressure from constituents to improve environmental performance across all sectors of the economy, and to provide their own leadership in waste reduction, reuse and recycling. It is, for many public sector institutions, the issue of the decade.

This is particularly the case for state, local, provincial and municipal governments, who have a shared responsibility for waste management and regulation. They are seeking ways to reduce the size of their waste streams, encourage and regulate recycling, and manage costs through the creation of waste-to-energy solutions.

ZWES is a leader and an innovator in this field.

Recent municipal proposals include the anaerobic digestion of municipal Green Bin waste (wet household waste) to create energy through the production a biogas composed principally of methane and carbon dioxide.
