UK based organic waste treatment specialist, Agrivert has signed a 25 year contract with Covanta Energy to process organic and food waste for the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. Covanta itself recently secured a contract to manage up to 45,000 tonnes per annum of waste from the Royal Borough.

According to Agrivert it will recycle the food waste at its new Anaerobic Digestion (AD) plant here at Wallingford, Oxfordshire, completed in Feb 2012, to produce energy and a valuable organic fertiliser. The new plant will be based on the design of the company's existing AD plant in Oxfordshire.

The new facility is expected to provide enough energy to power over 4200 homes and the company will also compost green waste collected from households as part of the contract.
