GOT WOOD? Benefits of using a UNTHA XR3000C Mobile wood shredder There are several reasons why a wood recycling company should use an industrial wood shredder: Increased Efficiency: An industrial wood shredder can process large amounts of waste wood quickly and efficiently. Cost Savings: By using an industrial shredder, a wood recycling company can reduce the cost of disposing of waste wood, as the shredded material can be used as biomass fuel or for the production of chipboard or other wood materials. Reduced Carbon Footprint: By recycling waste wood, a wood recycling company can reduce the amount of wood sent to landfills, reducing their carbon footprint and contributing to a more sustainable environment. Increased Revenue: By processing waste wood into usable materials, a wood recycling company can increase its revenue by selling the shredded materials to other companies. UNTHA XR3000C Mobile Shredding System. Future-proofed and all-electric to enhance your bottom-line. The low-dust, low noise and low vibration option.

🌍✨ I am often asked about how to prevent methane emissions from landfills without resorting to incineration. I am happy to share our new report "Reducing Waste Management’s Contribution to Climate Change: From Post-Landfilling Methane Capture to Pre-Landfill Methane Prevention," outlining what we believe could become a global solution to methane from landfills. 📊📉 https://lnkd.in/eEWnAuZG Here are key points from our findings: 1️⃣ Traditional strategies focus on capturing landfill gas to reduce methane emissions, but capture rates of methane generated over time are often low, especially during the initial waste decomposition stages. 2️⃣ Recent investigations indicate landfills may be releasing more methane than models have suggested in the past, highlighting the need for improved emission reduction strategies. 3️⃣ An alternative approach involves biologically treating waste before landfilling to minimise methane generation. Biostabilisation techniques (similar to composting) can significantly reduce the potential for methane production, rendering gas capture systems unnecessary. 4️⃣ Mechanical Recovery and Biological Treatment (MRBT) further enhances this by extracting additional recyclables from leftover mixed waste (LMW), thereby reducing the climate impact of both landfilling and incineration. MRBT systems offer a promising solution for waste management, aligning more closely with circular economy principles and mitigating short-term methane emissions. This approach minimizes the global temperature impact of residual waste management and reduces the likelihood of methane emissions reaching critical levels. In conclusion, shifting the focus from gas capture to biostabilisation of waste prior to landfilling provides a highly effective and sustainable strategy for managing waste and addressing climate change. 🌱🌿 It avoids emitting fossil-derived CO2, as happens with thermal treatments like incineration. Hence, this method not only reduces emissions but, where additional sorting of mixed waste sorting is included, also supports a transition towards a more circular and resilient economy. 🌍♻️ Check out the recording of a presentation delivered at the 2024 Global Methane Forum in Geneva: [Global Methane Forum Recordings](https://lnkd.in/e2-GwrnE) 🎥🌐

On our mission to drive sustainable building, we’re reducing CO2 emissions by decarbonizing our formulation and energy mix. CCUS is another key lever to accelerate Holcim's decarbonization journey as we make net-zero cement a reality this decade. How does it work?   We capture CO2 emissions before they are released into the atmosphere, then employ one of four pathways depending on local conditions: 🏗 Mineralization ⛽ Conversion utilization 🥤 Market utilization 📦 Storage   Explore our four CCUS pathways in this video 👇   #CCUS #BuildingProgress #Decarbonization

💡Waste to Renewable #energy!🤯 A failure of modern #recycling is the lack of #sustainability. It is unprofitable to recycle anything when the cost to recycle is greater than it's initial value. While incineration is better than landfilling garbage and costs much less, a better solution is the one that it can be profitable with waste-to-energy. Incineration produces a lot of energy that just goes up a smokestack and using that energy to produce #electricity makes it profitable when done right. A lot on waste management be learnt from this to make our world cleaner. #ecosystem #technology #Innovation #future #engineering #education #creativity

It mostly goes unnoticed, but #cement is a part of our everyday lives.   Still, very few of us are aware of its massive environmental impact - accounting for 8% of global CO2 emissions. 🏭   And even fewer know that solutions exist to significantly reduce these negative impacts. Today!   It's on the shoulders of legislators in the upcoming policy cycle to make them the norm in the EU.   Our roadmap on how to get it right: https://lnkd.in/euVZ_6ys #EUelections2024
