Best-practice disposal of production residues

Let us worry about compliant waste-management for you: Send your production residues to our industrial residue incinerator (RI) for best-practice disposal. We incinerate solid, liquid and gaseous waste for disposal and energy recovery in keeping with the waste-acceptance list and acceptance criteria. Our long-term operating permits mean you have a long-term waste-management partner that you can trust – with very high facility availability.

If you need to free up storage space, we can also provide just-in-time waste management. Record-keeping will become effortless since we will issue all your records of proper waste management and clear them with regulators. We can cut through the red tape to help you save time and money – just what you need when resources are tight.

We also offer custom transportation, analysis and documentation solutions.

Waste types

  • Disposal or energy recovery in the residue incinerator:
  • Over 300 categories of waste as defined in the Waste-Catalog Ordinance (AVV) with more than 1,800 individual waste types
  • Solid, pasty, liquid and gaseous wastes as per waste-acceptance list and acceptance criteria
  • Highly viscous waste (includes prior heating)
  • Toxic and very toxic wastes such as chlorinated hydrocarbons
  • Waste from pesticide production or major accidents
  • Exhaust air, exhaust gas, and liquid waste generated by facilities in Industriepark Höchst can be disposed of over dedicated pipelines
  • We accept your existing transport units, except with bulk materials
