MARS Inc has a 2015 zero waste plan and 2 tonne of waste which cannot be recycled. Being such a recognised company globally they needed an alternative waste management method with a company who they could trust to sustain its reputation of excellence. That’s where Addfield comes in. • Landfills are quickly reaching full capacity since the land has limited space. • Buying an incinerator from a reputable company, such as Addfield, allows the possibility of waste to energy technologies being implemented. • Pollution control is also a contemporary system which prevents incinerators from being the ‘smoking, smelling pollutants’ they have previously been known as. Fitting into the plan A prototype machine was manufactured and a program of emissions monitoring testing was performed at Addfield manufacturing facility by a MCERT’s accredited, independent emission monitoring company. The results gained were used to measure its performance against stringent legislation. The machine was delivered late in 2014 and has a load capacity of 1000kg. It was supplied with a high temperature ash ejection vacuum system for ease of de-ashing. The machine has been used as a pilot scheme, which has now been rolled out to other sites in Saudi Arabia due to its success.
