Organic waste bins with biofilter-lids in Leverkusen: top-quality organic waste

Leverkusen relies on the bio-filter lid for organic waste bins across the board and the people of Leverkusen separate like world champions. Radio Leverkusen reports: ‘Around 170 households can be supplied with electricity for a whole year from Leverkusen's organic waste. This is the result of an analysis by Avea. Leverkusen's organic waste is first converted into gas and then into electricity in a plant in the Bergisch region. And this works particularly well with our organic waste - according to Avea, Leverkusen's organic waste is very well separated. Random tests had shown that there were hardly any foreign substances in the organic waste - 98 per cent of the bins were rated as good. According to Avea, a family of four can save around 120 euros per year by switching to an organic waste bin. ‘

In addition to the bio-filter lid, Leverkusen also relies on our pre-sorter made from 100% recycled PP with an integrated odour filter.
