Overview
Managed by the Enomondo company and operating since 1995, the Faenza composting plant mainly treats vegetable waste, that is, the woody cellulosic fraction from public and private green area maintenance activities, as well as sludge of agro industrial origin. The plant deals with the biological treatment of waste by accelerated bioxidation in fermentation trenches. The output of the process is mixed composted soil improver.
Since 2015, the pretreatment department with shredding screening has been activated. Here, the composting of waste from the lignocellulosic fraction from public and private green area maintenance activities produces green composted soil improver through biological treatment by means of bioxidation.
