This facility uses a wet anaerobic digestion system which is owned by the City of Toronto, has the capacity to process about 75,000 tons/year of residential and commercial organics collected in the Toronto Green Bin Program (TGBP) as source separated organics (SSO). This facility began operations in Nov. 2013 and we will learn how TGBP allows organic waste in plastic bags unlikely in other municipalities. Do you know what kind of by-products AD produce? Do you know how to utilize these by-products and reduce greenhouse gases in sustainable ways? Do you know which is more sustainable: to convert bio-gas to electricity or to Renewable Natural Gas (RNG)?

Please join us to learn and see how we can make "Waste Free Ontario" possible in the Future!

The facility will provide the safety equipment. Please dress casually and wear sturdy shoes. DO NOT wear any open toed shoes or leather clothing for your safety.
