Industrial activities generate large volumes of solid and liquid organic wastes
Anaerobic digestion provides a solution to treat these streams, recovering nutrient-rich fertilizer, reducing landfill reliance and water stress and producing green energy.
Veolia develops and operates anaerobic digestion systems that convert organic matter into biogas, which can be reused on-site as an energy source.
Transforming organic waste
into energy
Anaerobic digestion is a biological process that breaks down organic matter in the absence of oxygen, producing biogas that can be used for heat or electricity generation.
Veolia’s solutions enable:
- Treatment of industrial wastewater and organic waste
- Production of biogas as a renewable energy source
- Reduction of waste volumes and treatment costs
From waste
to energy
