Minergy’s award winning process enhances our air and land quality.

Minergy enhances our earth’s potential by conserving precious resources. Every year, the Fox Valley Aggregate Plant in Neenah, Wis., U.S.A., saves more than 10 acres of land that would otherwise be used for disposal of paper mill sludge. Minergy offers industry and the public a superior solution to the disposal of paper mill sludge. We also pledge our commitment to conserving precious resources for everyone to enjoy … today and tomorrow.

Benefits

Minergy’s alternative provides a sucessful recycling technology that turns paper mill sludge into viable construction products while creating renewable energy. Minergy offers a way to recycle materials that have never been recycled before into inert products that do not negatively impact the environment.

Corporate Structure

Minergy Corporation Limited is a privately owned company. From 1993 – 2009, it had operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of Wisconsin Energy Corporation (WEC). A holding company with $8 billion in assets and $4 billion in annual revenues. Minergy has successfully commercialized technologies for recycling high-volume wastes, including municipal sludge, paper sludge and dredged sediment into high-value inert glass.

Minergy’s technologies offer cost-effective solutions to recycling waste byproducts. Minergy offers services from technology licensing to building, owning and/or operating the facilities.

Applications

Successful processed 50 different waste streams

Over the past 11 years, Minergy have successful processed 50 different waste streams including coal and municipal solid waste incineration fly ash, municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash, municipal biosolids, auto shredder residuals, manufactured gas plant remediation waste, biomass fuel waste, contaminated river sediment, paper mill sludge, chemical plant wastewater sludge and paint sludge.

Profile of a typical Minergy plant

Minergy plants typically have a capacity to process 100 – 2,000 tonnes of waste per day.  This could be satisfied by a single type of waste from multiple customers, or it could be provided by mixing 2 – 3 different waste streams which have some similarity in their composition, such as fly ash and auto shredder residuals.  The amount of energy produced by a Minergy plant is dependent on the energy potential of the feedstock supplied to the plant.  High energy feedstocks, such as paint sludge, can produce significant amounts of energy.  Low energy feedstocks, such as contaminated river sediment, produce almost no excess energy.  Glass aggregate production is dependent on the amount of inorganic materials contained in the feedstock.

Industries where there is demand for Minergy

Industries which are demanding Minergy today typically have the following profile:

  • Significant quantity of waste produced
  • Changing regulatory environment
  • Conventional disposal methods do not represent viable long term solutions

An example of an industry that has a profile consistent with the above is the municipal solid waste incineration(MSWI)  industry in Europe.  This industry is being confronted with a new challenges to process both fly ash and bottom ash in a more efficient and sustainable way. There are more than 3M tonnes of fly ash and 15M tonnes of bottom ash produced by MWSI companies in Europe each year. Costs to dispose of these waste streams are often increasing and regulations are getting tougher.  Minergy provides a unique solution to MSWI companies to cost effectively and efficiently process their fly ash and certain components of their bottom ash.

Other application areas where there is significant demand Minergy include:

  • Contaminated lake/harbour/river sediment
  • Auto shredder residuals
  • Mining and mining refining waste
  • Paper mill sludge
  • Fly ash from a range of industries
