Sustainable Solutions
All waste requires care in removal. Certain materials or products, however, can be more complex or difficult to dispose of safely. They may be hazardous, meaning they are ignitable, corrosive, toxic, or reactive; inconveniently bulky; or present other difficulties. Some of these items include:
- Industrial byproducts and waste
- Consumer products designated for secured destruction
- Pharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical waste
- Fats, oils, and grease (FOGs)
- Powders and absorbents
- Debris rags
- Filters
Though challenging to dispose of properly, items like these can present hazards if allowed to accumulate in work areas. Your facility may face health risks, environmental contamination, and compliance or liability issues, resulting in steep fines. You may also deal with reduced productivity as waste interferes with facility output and performance.
Sun Environmental Corp. thrives in helping commercial clients find sustainable solutions for these and other waste products. Our goal is to provide strategies for most types of waste that are both economically and environmentally sound, protecting our planet and your profits.
What Is Waste-to-Energy?
Waste-to-energy is a waste disposal strategy that converts industrial or municipal solid waste (MSW) into usable green energy. It works by burning waste in a specially designed incinerator. The burning waste produces heat that boils water, creating steam. The steam is then used to power an electric generator turbine. The produced energy is directed into the electricity grid, powering homes and businesses throughout your community.
This approach to waste disposal helps reduce waste volume by about 87%. The remaining volume is treated for safe disposal, ensuring that potential environmental contaminants are eliminated. Meanwhile, the burning provides a sustainable power source that reduces a community’s reliance on coal and other fossil fuels.
