64+ Million Pounds of Waste Reclaimed for Energy Annually
Crystal Clean’s energy recovery process converts non-hazardous waste into usable energy instead of landfill disposal. This technology helps reduce waste volume in landfills and cuts greenhouse gas emissions by turning waste into energy.
Choosing energy recovery reduces the need for fossil fuels and supports cleaner waste management that aligns with sustainability goals. Crystal Clean’s energy recovery program processes 64+ million pounds of waste annually.
Waste Collection
Professional Crystal Clean representatives collect waste from generators following EPA, DOT and local regulations.
Testing & Evaluation
Waste is tested and evaluated to determine if it can be recovered for energy through the waste-to-energy disposal process.
Consolidation
Approved waste is transported to a Crystal Clean accumulation facility for consolidation. Once consolidated, it is transported to a waste-to-energy facility.
Energy Generation
Waste is burned at the waste-to-energy facility within a self-sustaining combustion chamber. During this process, energy is generated using the waste as a fuel substitute to create steam which powers a turbine to generate electricity that is put back into municipal power grids.
Relevant Services
Waste collected from the following services have the ability to be disposed using Crystal Clean’s energy recovery capabilities.
