TrAsh or Treasure? The Circular Promise of Dry Ash Management
01 July 2025
Every ton of municipal solid waste processed in WtE plants contains valuable metals hidden within Incinerator Bottom Ash (IBA). Recovering these metals offers a significant opportunity, with potential revenues reaching up to €30 per ton of waste. Moreover, recycling these materials could prevent 20–30 million tons of CO₂ emissions each year. MADAM (MAgaldi Dry Ash Management) system transforms this process by keeping IBA dry, which enhances recovery rates and preserves the quality of the metals. This innovative approach not only increases market value but also contributes to substantial carbon savings.

The Magaldi Dry Ash Management (MADAM) system tackles this critical gap by drastically reducing the amount of IBA sent to landfill and transforming it into a cleaner, high-quality material suitable for reuse.
