Kanadevia Inova has officially received the Provisional Acceptance Certificate (PAC) from kenova AG for its combustion and boiler system at the new KEBAG Enova Emmenspitz waste-to-energy plant in Zuchwil, Canton Solothurn, Switzerland.

The world is facing a growing waste challenge linked to unsustainable production and consumption, with humanity generating up to 2.3 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste each year.

The city of São Paulo has taken another step towards circularity. In 2025, STADLER, was contracted by Ecourbis S.A., to build the “UTM Leste” sorting plant.

Emissions fell only marginally in 2025. The 2030 climate targets remain achievable if the necessary measures are implemented. Acceptance of climate-friendly technologies is increasing.

The cooperation will also promote the dissemination of information on the Brazilian waste sector through the WasteCulture platform and support the organization of workshops ...and international exchange initiatives.

This briefing provides information about the interlinkages between circular economy and climate change mitigation. It is based on a literature review of recent modelling results and supports the 2025 Clean Industrial Deal and 2020 Circular Economy Action Plan.

The 11th Expert Conference Sensor-Based Sorting & Control will take place on March 17 and 18, 2026, Aachen, Germany.

With all key project details finalized, Kanadevia Inova’s North America team and its partners are launching one of the most advanced organic waste-to-renewable gas projects in the region and establishing a new benchmark in circular waste management and renewable energy production.

Colruyt launches the first meat trays made with recycled plastic.

WasteCulture's collaborator Helena Oliveira met with Yuri Schmitke, president of ABREN, to talk about various aspects of waste management in Brazil.

Federal Environment Minister Carsten Schneider and California Governor Gavin Newsom met today at the Munich Security Conference to spotlight the national and economic security risks of climate change and highlight how the transition to clean energy reduces risk while protecting communities and growing economies.

How can our built environment become healthier, more climate-friendly, and more resource-efficient?

The UN Environment Programme (UNEP) released its 2025 Annual Report today, highlighting progress made last year on key environmental challenges through international cooperation despite ongoing global geopolitical tensions.

The carbon that is currently being downcycled does not contribute to the defossilization of the chemical industry; in fact, it is a waste of carbon.

From raincoats to cosmetics, from medical devices to car batteries: PFAS is all around us. Using our know-how and expertise, we take our responsibility to eliminate these harmful and persistent substances from society with a minimum of impact on environment and people. We firmly advocate a more systemic solution, including better inventories of the spreading and eventually the phase-out of PFAS altogether.

MARTIN GmbH and LAB won a contract to help renovate the SAKO Waste-to-Energy plant in Brno, Czech Republic.

By recognizing all three options for defossilization (biomass, recycling, CCU) as equivalent, as well as the equivalence of mechanical and chemical recycling of plastics and biomass, the economy would have the opportunity to develop technology competition and select the most economically advantageous options.

This paper explores how carbon capture can be integrated into thermal waste treatment plants with minimal energy losses - or even efficiency gains

Mobile activated carbon systems combined with industrial-scale reactivation offer a robust, cost-effective, and environmentally sound solution for PFAS removal and destruction
