Description

Biosolids S.A. is active in the area of organic waste recycling, using a composting procedure to produce soil nutrients and bio-fertilisers.

iCompost is an investment project which consists in investing in an innovative aeration composting technology, which will lead to the increase of the productivity of the organic waste composting unit and to the decrease of production costs per product unit, and thus improve the quality of the end product (the organic fertilisers), as well as increase the company’s competitiveness and its environmental footprint.

The project consists in the procurement of the new equipment for the installation of the aeration composting system, as well as the expansion of the production plant. In addition, new containers will be purchased, to be used as mobile composting units for collecting waste from third party companies and municipalities.

In order to enhance further its competitiveness, Biosolids will train its employees in the areas of Business strategic development & Green business modeling, Life Cycle Analysis, Waste management, and Green Innovation. Moreover, Biosolids will participate in 2 sectoral exhibitions which will enhance the company''s visibility in the market, as well as conduct a feasibility study which will examine the possibility to develop a sustainable biogas unit.
