Area Metropolitana de Barcelona
Our company is resposible for the treatment of municipal solid wastes produced in the Barcelona Metropolitane Area. It is around 1.500.00 t/year of different products. The main part is unsorted municipal solid watses that are procesed in MBT installations. From these installations different rejected materials are produced.
We are searching technologies suitable to treat these rejected materials. Maybe the most important is the organic fraction of the unsorted municipal solid waste. Times ago it was used to produced bioestabilized material that could be use in agricultural fields, but nowadays it is forbiden.
We try to contact companies with solutions that could give technical and economical solutions to this rejected materials.
