VLS Environmental Solutions, Houston, has announced its waste-to-energy (WTE) processing facility in Quartzsite, Arizona. The new facility will serve the West Coast to deliver local solutions for waste management services, VLS says.
“The opening of our new Quartzsite facility marks an important milestone in our mission to provide innovative solutions for clients to meet their sustainability goal,” VLS CEO John Magee says. “We are not only addressing our clients' needs but also paving the way for zero waste practices on the West Coast.”
VLS says the Quartzsite facility can process industrial nonhazardous waste, serving industries such as organic and inorganic chemical manufacturing, semiconductors, gas and oil and automotive assembly plants and upstream suppliers.
The company says its goal with the new facility is to “transform operational waste into alternatives for coal and natural gas sustainable energy solutions.”
“Our zero waste solutions transcend traditional practices,” Magee says. “With innovative services like our advanced Shredded Heat solution and landfill options, we ensure the secure destruction of postoperation waste products, contributing to a cleaner, greener future.
“Our new facility in Quartzsite stands as a testament to our commitment to providing safe, secure and sustainable solutions for our clients’ waste management needs,” he adds.
