The city has a plan to modernize and construct new organics processing facilities, which will produce soil amendments and natural gas that will be used to offset fossil fuel extraction from the ground. \n \"One of the most difficult and challenging aspects of these waste diversion initiatives is an effective solution for odour control.  Ineffective odour management plans at these types of facilities in other jurisdictions have resulted in large environmental fines and even plant shutdowns in extreme cases,\" said Derek Webb President and Chief Executive Officer of BIOREM.\n\"BIOREM was successful in demonstrating that the incorporation of our engineered solutions and next generation abatement systems early in the design process can reduce overall project costs and ensure a happy community once operations begin\" continued Mr. Webb.\nThis contract represents one of BIOREM's largest single orders and reflects the recent trend of increased project size and scope in our bidding acti...
