As residual waste and RDF feedstock starts to become more challenging and competitive as capacity increases and supplies start to become scarcer, EFW’s are increasingly considering the sourcing of their waste and the associated cost, both financially and environmentally,

Over the past 8 years, we have continuously evolved and enhanced our reporting platform to provide in-depth analysis and valuable insights into our customers' waste data. By handling increasing volumes of waste composition data across various applications, our tool supports compliance and empowers better management decision-making.

Derwen Recycling Ltd provide a range of waste management services to the municipal, commercial, industrial and construction and demolition sector with the primary aim of diverting waste from landfill. Their recycling and recovery facility maximises recycling from the input material with the residual waste processed into a refuse derived fuel (RDF).

Slough Multifuel facility (SMF) is a new 55 MW energy from waste facility producing heat and electricity through the combustion of c. 480,000 tonnes per annum of waste derived fuels from various sources of municipal solid waste, commercial and industrial waste and waste wood.

Riverside 1 identified a requirement to undertake more extensive sampling and analysis of their waste input across multiple customers with a view to better understand the potential implications of the UK ETS.

Monksleigh's response to the UK ETS Authority request for views on the expansion of the UK Emissions Trading Scheme to energy from waste and waste incineration is posted in its entirety.

With the recent publication of the Waste Data Interrogator by the EA, we have had a quick dive into what's changed since last year when we did a similar quick analysis of the Data.

Monksleigh have been commissioned by Field Textiles on no fewer than four occasions to help support them in their procurement of services for the MOD. Early work included helping the business to become ‘bid ready’ and make the first and subsequent tenders quicker and easier to bid.

Monksleigh originally advised the investors in Waste Knot, Gresham House, leading into their investment decision in the business, but since then the business has come to Monksleigh for a range of different market-led services.

Total Waste Management (TWM) is a metals recovery business specialising in the recycling and recovery of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, general waste and end-of-life vehicles (ELVs).

Monksleigh was initially commissioned by Fornax to undertake a market appraisal of the UK’s current clinical and hazardous waste market and the evaluation of potential future sites.

WMR (Waste Management and Recycling) is a growing customer-focused waste brokerage business with speciality in the hospitality and leisure sectors that needed to draw out more detail on service delivery to report back to customers.

Unimetals Ltd approached Monksleigh to ask for our support and expertise to assist them with the Environmental and Health and Safety Due Diligence in relation to their potential acquisition of the Sims Metals Group UK Ltd.

The latest published data on the amount of clinical waste incinerated has revealed a number of inconsistencies which could lead to potential ramifications for the measurement of this material for UK ETS, if it is to be included as proposed in the recent consultation.

Monksleigh's analysis of the reporting by EFW plants in Englandshow that there is no consistency in the approach to the way biogenic carbon emissions were measured by the 51 operational EFW plants in England.

Biomass by Energy Content, Biomass by CV, the 'Selective Dissolution Method (SDM)' are all differing terminologies for the same test, which seems to have become the default test to determine the level of biogenic material in residual waste...... but does it?

With Landfill Tax due to step up to £126.70 in April 2025 the gate fee trajectory of landfill and EFW going forwards looks ominous - and may lead to some unintended consequences of Landfill tax and UK ETS policy in the future.

Monksleigh's recent analysis of the 51 operational EFW plants in England shows that only 24% of EFW facilities rely on direct measurement of carbon emissions from their stack to estimate their overall emissions of biogenic carbon to the atmosphere.
