The Waste-to-Energy Program

We utilize a Reworld “Waste-to-Energy” program that diverts waste from landfills to generate energy from the combustion of municipal solid waste. Waste-to-Energy is the only form of energy generation that actually reduces greenhouse gases and plays an important role in addressing climate change due to avoiding methane from landfills, offsetting emissions from fossil fuel electrical production and recovering metals for recycling.

How does it Work?
 
Waste-to-Energy facilities convert waste to power steam turbines which generate electricity for homes and businesses, reducing greenhouse gases and landfill waste. The resulting ash is processed to recover metal for recycling while all gases are collected, filtered and cleaned to minimize environmental impact.
There you go....................sharing facts.
