This involves reducing waste generation\, reusing materials\, recycling\, recovering energy\, nutrients\, and deriving other benefits from waste. \nOn this 90-minute session we continue to explore other applications and innovations\, and dive into the business case for carbon capture\, value-creation\, and climate action. \nOnce again\, we will also expand our solid waste focus and include discussion on the confluence of liquid waste\, solid waste\, and climate action. Look forward to learning more from: \n\nEcostrat | Aryn Garswood \nBiomass feedstock\, from tree nut shells and wood fibers\, for bioenergy\, biofuel\, and biochemical projects.\nBiocarbon Expert\, PhD | Geoff de Ruiter\nBioenergy\, carbon management\, and biocoal applications in British Columbia.\nWhirlpool-InSinkErator | Kendall Christiansen\nTechnology that supports energy sustainability by enabling the capture of bioenergy from food waste and sludge.=\nCapital Regional District | Rory Tooke\nBiosolids explorations and innovations.\n\nVignette: Highlights on how bioenergy and biocarbon technologies support the province’s CleanBC climate plan\, contributing to greenhouse gas emission reductions by providing low-carbon fuel alternatives and enhancing forest carbon storage.\n \n\n– COST –\n$23 CWMA Members | $28 Non-Members \n+GST.  CWMA’s operations are supported wholly by events like these\, dedicated patronage from sponsors\, and our membership.

Many HHW facilities and municipal waste operations struggle with proper handling protocols\, and finding a fully compliant processing organization has proven difficult for many regions. \n5\, 10\, 20-lb Propane Tanks\nAlso challenging. \nLarge Lithium-Ion Batteries: The 5kg+ Challenge\nThis weight threshold captures e-bike batteries\, power tool batteries\, and more. The 5kg limit reflects the critical point where specialized transportation and handling protocols become mandatory under current regulations and these batteries are not covered under the current EPR system. \nAre you experiencing specific collection logistics challenges in your area? Have you identified policy solutions or innovative approaches for these waste streams? Let’s get together to discuss and share! \nCWMA Roundtables serve as our collaborative platform to share our scenarios\, challenges\, and success stories. \nPlan to attend! \n\n– COST –\nNo Cost.

We are seeing more makers and innovative enterprises harness cutting-edge technologies alongside grassroots enthusiasm to process\, sort\, and transform recyclable materials right where waste originates—bringing solutions directly to communities. \nThis showcase of initiatives are creating sustainable alternatives that empower communities to take control of their environmental impact.
