Converting Waste To Energy With The Pioneers Of Waste Innovation.

Changing the perspective of waste from something that's discarded into a renewed source of energy!

Extracting value from waste is part of what makes Interwaste a forerunner in the waste management sector in southern Africa. This is evident in our response to increasingly stringent legislation on the disposal of hazardous materials to landfills as well as the National Waste Management Strategy and other initiatives to divert waste from landfill disposal.

Interwaste has developed processes that convert various types of non-recyclable or hazardous waste with a calorific value into alternative fuels.

We can treat, recycle and/or recover qualifying wastes at our licensed waste management facilities such as liquid and hazardous sludge wastes (with CV > 20MJ/kg) through our waste blending platform in Gauteng which produces a waste-derived fuel (WDF) for use as an industrial fuel.

In addition to this, Interwaste developed South Africa’s first Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) plant which aims to reduce waste to landfill and directly contribute towards Government’s efforts to reduce the country's carbon footprint. The plant pioneers certain non-recyclable waste which has a calorific value into alternative fuels – while ensuring less reliance on fossil fuels such as coal, which are more carbon-intensive. Taking on average 300 tonnes of such waste per month from relevant producers, the company converts this into an alternative fuel
source for use in cement kilns.

The benefit? Diversion from landfill and a more sustainable alternative to fossil fuels.
