Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all
The project arises from the demand to recover the Organic Fraction of the Municipal Solid Waste (OFMSW) resulting from source separated collection. A combination of innovative technologies is set to maximize biomethane production.

It involves the construction and operation of a multi-combined platform with two major
sections for the treatment and processing of non-hazardous MSW collected within the
Messina Province.
The platform is expected to receive:
• OFMSU resulting from separate waste collection;
• Green waste from pruning of parks and gardens;
• Undifferentiated MSW and/or undifferentiated (residual) MSW from separated collection.
The implementation of the project consists of:
1. Recovery of the existing facilities and its integration with the new ones enabling:
- A section designated to treat undifferentiated MSW which includes the stabilization
of the organic content, material recovery such as metals and plastics, the
production of Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) and biogas; - A section designated to treat Organic Fraction of the Municipal Solid Waste (OFMSW)
resulting from source separated collection which will produce high quality compost
and biogas; - A section designated for the upgrading of biogas produced after anaerobic
digestion. The outcome, biomethane, should be fed into the national grid. The
green energy recovered from the abovementioned sections will substantially benefit
decarbonisation and the economy.
2. The reactivation of the unused old landfill leachate treatment plant, integrating
existing structures and equipment’s with new required facilities. Both the leachate
and wastewater produced from the MSW treatment industrial platform will be
treated.
