Waste Facilities in Sun Valley, Rialto Leading Efforts to Turn Food Scraps into Fuel
The Waste Management facility in Sun Valley processed 90,000 tons of food waste last year. The facility now has OREX, a technology that is able to remove plastics and other contaminants from organic waste to prepare it for processing. The food waste is transported to the Rialto Bioenergy Facility, where it is anaerobically digested to create transportation fuel for use in heavy duty trucks and buses.

 Divert Breaks Ground on Anaerobic Digestion Facility Driven by Washington's Organics Management Law
Anaerobic digestion company Divert broke ground on a new facility in Longview, Washington. Enbridge is partnering with Divert to finance the $100 million project, which they expect will open in 2024. When built, the facility will be able to process 100,000 tons of food waste per year from Washington and Oregon. Divert's project will receive feedstock from large commercial food waste generators, including sources like agricultural food producers or industrial food manufacturers. In addition to anaerobic digestion, the project will also use depackaging and liquefaction technology. The facility, once complete, will create renewable natural gas.
