ReFood UK holds open day 19 & 20th July 2012

ReFood UK Ltd is opening up its Anaerobic Digestion plant to the public for an Open Day on Thursday 19th and Friday 20th July 2012.
With almost 20 million tonnes of food waste generated each year across the UK, it is crucial that we find more sustainable solutions to landfill. The UK is committed to increasing its level of renewable energy production in order to limit climate change.
Anaerobic Digestion (AD) is one solution that is going to help us deliver on two sustainability goals – reducing waste going to landfill and generating renewable energy.
ReFood is the European market leader in the field of disposal of organic waste from kitchens, canteens and retailers. From every stage in the food chain, ReFood recycles food waste via AD into green electricity, heat and nutrient-rich fertiliser.
Each ReFood AD plant can recycle 45,000 tonnes of food and drink waste each year. With innovative systems to de-package retail food wastes, ReFood is able to handle all types of waste food products and ensure that all materials are separated for recycling.
If you have a particular interest in environmental issues, waste management or perhaps have a business that produces food waste we would love to see you.
This is your opportunity to see a state of the art, award winning AD plant in operation and network with representatives from local and national companies.
The event is free to attend and refreshments will be provided throughout the day.
