Overview
The multifunctional platform in Caorso (PC) carries out the storage, treatment and reuse of special hazardous and non hazardous solid, sludge and liquid waste, both loose and in bulk. The waste received in the plant can undergo various types of processing: selection and sorting, unpacking and repackaging, volumetric adjustment and shredding, separation by physical states and multi stage suction, grouping and mixing, thickening and inertisation of mixtures. Operating since the end of the 1990s, it has gained many years' experience in the management of incineration materials, also and above all on foreign plants, consolidating relations with the main national and European operators in the sector. The company also carries out waste collection and transport services with a fleet of its own vehicles of various types.
