Mission & Goals
AVR is an advanced waste treatment based in Rotterdam (NL) with several other plants in the Netherlands. AVR strives to retrieve maximal value from mixed household waste and commercial and industrial waste in a circular and environmentally sound manner and works according to advanced principles of recycling and energy production from waste. Furthermore, AVR retrieves plastics, metals, drinking cartons, and minerals as secondary raw materials from residual waste and convert the remainder of the residual waste into steam, heat and electricity with a (very) high energy efficiency according to the European R1 energy efficiency formula. The CO2 is captured and transported to nearby greenhouses that use it in growing their plants or in the future, applied in CCS infrastructure. Please visit www.avr.nl for more information.
