Waste Management

• Less than 5% of waste to landfill
• 100% of waste received on site is weighed and recorded. Once the container is tipped it goes through both a manual and mechanical separation process, this ensures that we maximise the segregation of each waste type. The remaining wastes are bulk loaded either for further recycling and re processing, The residual waste that cannot be processed further is no longer sent to landfill it is sent for “RDF” – Refuse Derived Fuel that generates substantial energy to homes and businesses
• To further maximise the food waste going for Green Energy, LUFC have 30 x 240 Litre Wheeled Bins that are placed around site in the relevant areas – These are then collected using a bin wagon which then tipped directly at the Green Energy plant as oppose to tipping it in your Compactor and us segregating at our Waste Transfer site.
