Waste Cycle Management

ENEA carries out research, development, implementation and dissemination of innovative technologies and systems for the treatment, disposal and recycling of wastes, with a special focus on treatment technologies and processes for energy generation from waste.ENEA also designs, realizes and operates several laboratories and prototypes –sometimes at pre-industrial scales – for waste thermal treatment and for the recovery and reuse of waste materials. ENEA also supports public administrations by the analysis of policies and the implementation of regulations related to the waste management plans. Such activities are carried out at Casaccia and Trisaia Research Centres.
