12/02/2014 - The waterborne waste treatment plant, an environmentally-friendly solution for the city of the future

Three companies and a public institution that pay attention to the Lyon Urban Area's waste management and recovery requirements are combining their expertise in order to design an innovative waterborne waste treatment plant, and offer the Lyon Urban Area the opportunity to act as a pilot in this 1st experiment in France. To mark the occasion of the Pollutec Trade Show, the four partners have just signed a partnership in order to back the project, namely SITA, a Suez Environnement subsidiary and the leader in the waste recovery market, Compagnie Nationale du Rhône (CNR), the leading French producer of 100% renewable electricity and the concession-holder for the River Rhône, Compagnie Fluviale de Transport (CFT), the main river transport operator in France, and Voies Navigables de France (VNF) which manages, operates, modernises and develops the largest European network of navigable waterways.
