Organic Waste
SKB Environmental is at the forefront of tackling PFAS contamination with our innovative solutions. In 2024, we installed a full-scale PFAS pre-treatment system at the SKB Rosemount landfill, marking a significant milestone as the first of its kind in Minnesota and the Nation. Modern lined landfills are part of the solution to responsibly managing PFAS containing waste streams.
With the addition of this state-of-the-art system designed to efficiently remove PFAS from landfill leachate, SKB intends to be the industry leader in the safe and responsible management of PFAS wastes.
Organic Waste Processing
Our commitment to organics processing continues today as SKB is pursuing new applications of proven technologies such as Anaerobic Digestion to process organics and capture energy from the waste. In addition to these cutting-edge technologies, organic waste can be composted into a valuable soil amendment.
Organic waste includes food waste, soiled paper, and other biodegradable residuals and comprises roughly 15% of the municipal solid waste (MSW) stream. SKB Environmental continues to be on the cutting edge of the opportunities related to this waste stream.
Organic waste may be delivered with prior approval to any of these facilities: Malcolm. Please call for more information.
Anaerobic Digestion
Through the process of anaerobic digestion, organic waste can be converted into renewable biogas fuel and a digestate material with many applications including use as a fertilizer.
