ReWaste maintenance works
To keep the ReWaste facility running over the next decade, we’re cleaning out our 2 organic waste digester tanks and carrying out essential maintenance to our facilities.
You might notice a slight odour from the tanks when we open them to clean them out.
We’re doing everything we can to minimise odour by:
- Using a 'water blanket' within the tank to help dilute and suppress odours.
- Removing as much odour causing material as possible from the tanks before opening them.
- Using odour neutralising misting cannons over the tanks while the works are being undertaken.
- Using our existing odour suppression system located on the fence line of our site, which mists water into the air to suppress odours.
We're also monitoring odour levels with our real-time air quality surveillance and climate systems (including wind direction and speed).
Timeframes
These works will be happening in 2 stages.
| Stage 1 |
| We’ll be cleaning and maintaining the first tank from September 2024, until November 2024. |
| Stage 2 |
| Works on the second tank will commence January 2025, until April 2025. |
