HAMPDEN’S MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE PROCESSING FACILITY

Innovative Resource Recovery is leading the way in recovering valuable resources from waste streams.

Here at Innovative, we focus on maximizing the beneficial reuse of waste. We seek to recover valuable resources from waste streams previously destined for landfills by capturing, processing, and converting these materials into new products. By doing this, we are able to minimize landfill waste, conserve natural resources, and reduce the environmental impact of our customer communities.

Reuse of Recyclables

We believe every garbage bag thrown away represents a chance to recycle. Our state-of-the-art material recovery facility allows us to recover recycleables from a single bag, without any pre-sorting by our customers.

When you partner with us, you are doing your part to ensure recoverable resources get a second, third and even fourth life without a separate recycling program.

Production of Renewable Natural Gas (RNG)

At Innovative Resource Recovery, we’re pushing the boundaries of waste transformation. Beyond traditional recycling, we harness the energy potential within every day waste streams such as food scraps, waste paper and yard trimmings by anaerobically digesting this material into a clean and sustainable energy source. This low-carbon RNG serves as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels and maximizes the utility of waste, turning yesterday’s leftovers and scraps into tomorrow’s energy.
