Our internal Waste Specialist, Natan Elfassy, has successfully developed a cost-effective and environmentally responsible solution for a client producing iron oxide waste.
This breakthrough could save the business up to £10,000 annually in disposal costs.
Many in the industry recognise iron oxide as a problematic waste stream due to its fine, dust-like consistency and the contamination issues it presents when exposed to water. Traditionally, operators disposed of this waste at deep landfill sites. However, these sites charge the highest landfill tax rates. As a result, this approach became both costly and unsustainable.
Our iron oxide waste solution
Determined to find a better approach, Natan collaborated with leading waste disposal facilities and reassessed the classification of this challenging material. Agecko modified how the waste is bulked and transported. This change reduced disposal costs and ensured full environmental compliance.
Agecko’s expertise ensures not only reduced costs but also more sustainable waste management practices. We continue to work closely with specialist facilities to innovate new solutions for difficult waste streams. Our clients benefit from lower environmental impacts, improved waste management processes, and enhanced sustainability.
Beyond cost savings, Agecko’s approach also cuts the carbon footprint linked to waste disposal. By finding alternatives to landfill disposal, we help our customers contribute to a circular economy, where materials are reused or repurposed instead of ending up in landfill. Whether you’re managing iron oxide or another difficult waste stream, Agecko offers the expertise and support to improve efficiency.
