TIRU, ENERGY AND WASTE RECOVERY SPECIALIST
TIRU designs, builds and operates waste recovery units. TIRU is a specialist subsidiary of the EDF Group, offering a portfolio of solutions to meet the needs of local authorities, departmental and communal syndicates, and the regions they cover:
• Energy recovery: combustion of household waste to produce energy (electricity and/or steam) for use in urban heating networks or industrial applications
• Biological recovery: breaking down the organic matter contained in waste to produce compost and biogas
• Material waste recovery: sorting and packaging recyclable materials (plastics, fibrous materials and metals)
• Fuel recovery: using household waste to produce fuel (Refuse-Derived Fuel) and biomethane
TIRU industrialises new processes that are integral to the development of energy services, including:
• the methanisation of household waste, expertise that keeps pace with technical developments and is applied to four facilities in France
• the production of refuse-derived fuel (RDF) from household waste, storable material with very high calorific value, in a pilot plant in France
• the supply of hot water to agricultural greenhouses, a solution that increases energy performance and creates local jobs
TIRU is an innovative player on the waste market which makes a major contribution to meeting the challenges of the energy transition and the circular economy
