What types of waste can AAD facilities process?
The Company offers complete systems capable of treating a wide range of waste streams, from the most to the least complex, as follows: mixed municipal solid waste (MSW), including streams passing though transfer stations, post-recycled MSW (“black bin”) fraction, organics-rich fraction from material recovery facilities (MRFs), source-separated organics waste streams, food processing wastes, and sewage sludge (“biosolids”). The front- and back-ends (pre- and post-digestion, respectively) of AAD plants differ according to the characteristics of the waste stream, the client’s objectives, and the use of the biogas, whereas the central component is always anaerobic digestion utilizing the induced blanket reactor (IBR) method.
