Event Details
Is your municipality looking for ways to turn organic waste into opportunity? Anaerobic digestion offers municipalities a practical, cost-effective way to manage source-separated organics. It diverts waste from landfills, generates renewable energy from biogas, and recycles nutrients back into the soil through digestate. This technology can help complement composting and recycling to give municipalities practical tools they can use to achieve their waste management and circular economy goals.
Join us on Thursday, October 23, at 2 p.m. ET for the Advancing climate goals with organic waste-to-energy webinar presented by Azura Associates. This webinar will equip participants with the foundational knowledge, success stories and real-world insights that will help them explore and make informed decisions about local organic waste-to-energy opportunities. Whether your municipality is in the early stages of exploration of opportunities or is ready to evaluate next steps, this webinar will deliver actionable information that will help take your concepts forward.
What you’ll learn:
- How anaerobic digestion and composting systems work together to divert municipal waste from landfills
- How municipalities turn biogas into local renewable energy and put digestate to work to enrich soil
- Best practices from real municipal case studies
- Insight on funding, permitting and governance considerations
- Guidance and practical steps to find organic waste-to-energy opportunities that are right for your municipality
Speakers:
- Trisha Aldovino, Process Analyst, Azura Associates
- David Ellis, President, Azura Associates
Don’t miss this opportunity to discover how your municipality can turn organic waste into local value through anaerobic digestion, biogas and digestate.
The webinar will be presented in English with simultaneous interpretation in French.
